The north of Florianópolis

Staying in Florianópolis by the water, is it tempting you? Careful, the vast majority of tourists who come to visit Florianópolis mostly populate the beaches, so they will surely be crowded. Staying at the beach of Jureré Internacional and Praia Brava, north of the island, allows you to enjoy the good tourist infrastructures of the bay while having the opportunity to visit the Fortress of São José da Ponta Grossa or to go to the Aqua park ( along the Rodovia Armando Calil Bullos). If you want quiet beaches and/or come to visit Florianópolis with children, favor the area of Ponta Das Canas, Daniela, do Forte, Canasvieiras, Lagoinha and Cachoeira do Bom Jesus.

South Florianópolis

Would you like to find a place to sleep in Florianópolis, in a quiet area and a little wilder, far from the beaches and tumultuous urban areas? Sightseeing south of the island of Santa Catarina: by choosing to stay in Açores (the area, not the Atlantic archipelago), you will have access to beautiful tropical beaches, like the beautiful Praia de Naufragados, the beach of the naufragés after a hike in the "pampa", but also the Praia dos Azores, the Praia da Solidão. The locality of Campeche also offers a good position: staying in Campeche allows you to take a walk on Mount Lampiaõ and swim on a large stretch of sand at the homonymous beach.
