Embark on a day excursion to Florianópolis and immerse yourself in the varied landscapes characteristic of the capital of Santa Catarina. This journey will guide you through the historic heart of the city, a visit to its bustling public market, and an opportunity to relax at Praia da Barra da Lagoa.

Details of the Day Trip

We'll begin our adventure with a timely pickup from your accommodation in Balneario Camboriú. From there, our scenic journey towards Florianópolis, affectionately known as "Floripa," will commence.

Upon entering the city, you'll first see a remarkable landmark: the Hercílio Luz Bridge. This impressive steel structure links the island of Santa Catarina to the mainland and stands as the second-longest suspension bridge in Brazil.

As we stroll through the historic district, the Portuguese heritage of the area will come to light. The Florianópolis Cathedral will be one of our stops, situated near the site where the city's founder, Dias Velho, met his fate at the hands of pirates in the late 17th century.

Continuing our exploration, we'll make our way past Praça XV de Novembro and the Cruz e Sousa Palace, home to the Historical Museum of Santa Catarina since 1986. A visit to the public market, over a century old, will be a highlight, as it stands among the city's top attractions.

Next, we will transport you to the Lagoa da Conceição viewpoint before heading to Praia da Barra da Lagoa, where you can revel in 2 hours of leisure time. A swim in the crystal-clear waters and tasting some local delicacies is highly recommended.

Eventually, we will return to the starting point, concluding this enriching experience after a fulfilling 9-hour journey.
