Florianópolis

An island of beaches, trails, and boat tours in Santa Catarina

Florianópolis has more than 40 beaches scattered across the island, along with lagoons, historic fortresses, and trails with ocean views. You can combine boat tours to islands like Campeche and Xavier, sports at Lagoa da Conceição, and hikes in the south of the island. Summer is the most popular time to visit, but spring and fall bring pleasant days and fewer crowds.
