Florianópolis is known in Brazil as the Magic Island. With its paradisiacal beaches, it's considered by many to be the best place to relax and reconnect with your inner self.
Besides over 40 beautiful beaches, Floripa—the city's nickname—has a ton of other attractions. On our tour, you'll see the historic center, where the small, yellow, and charming metropolitan cathedral is located.
In the city's most important square, we will visit Praça XV Novembro (named after the date the republic was proclaimed) where the imposing Cruz e Souza Palace stands, which now houses the Santa Catarina Historical Museum.
Another historical and visually impressive site is the Hercílio Luz Bridge, named after the Governor of Santa Catarina, who designed the bridge to be the first connection between the island and the mainland. Unfortunately, he never saw it finished, as he passed away before it was completed. The bridge is now closed to traffic and is a national cultural heritage site.
But, of course, in a city like Floripa, beaches and lagoons are still must-sees. One of them is also one of the city's most famous natural landmarks, Lagoa da Conceição. Some houses in the neighborhood also date back to the city's colonization.
We will visit the Lagoa da Conceição viewpoint, which offers a beautiful and complete view of the lagoon and Morro das Sete Voltas; afterward, we will pass through Avenida das Rendeiras, arriving at Praia da Joaquina, a place where several national and world surfing championships take place, as its beautiful waves are excellent for practicing the sport and it is a place admired by fans of the sport.
Leaving Joaquina, we will go to Barra da Lagoa, where we will have free time for lunch (not included).
Finally, we will return to the hotel. Notes: Please note that some hotels in the city are not included in our transportation route.
