Guarda do Embaú Trip

River, sea and beach all in one! The excursion to Guarda do Embaú from Florianópolis offers you a day of disconnection by the bay.

Guarda do Embaú Trip

One of the most amazing beaches in the State of Santa Catarina awaits us. We'll start the trip by picking you up from your hotel in Florianópolis at 8 am.

In just one hour we will have reached a little slice of paradise in the Brazilian Atlantic. Here you'll enjoy between 5 and 6 hours of free time to investigate one of the most unusual spots in Brazil, a result of the landscape formed by the Rio do Madre as it flows into the Atlantic coast. The beach itself is found on a stretch of sand sitting between the two waters.

The origin of the name Guarda do Embaú comes from the treasure chests hidden by pirates in a now distant past. The buccaneers decided to hide their treasures buried on this beach (in a baú, chest in Portuguese).

And when it's time for lunch, you should really try the fresh fish and seafood from the region or a delicious Brazilian feijoada.

Finally, the tour heads back to Florianópolis, dropping you off at your hotel at 4 pm.

Hotel Pickup

Pickup is included as long as your hotel in Florianópolis is located in the north, west and central areas. If your accommodation is outside these areas, you'll need to go to the meeting point: Shopping Villa Romana. Please note that the pickup time depends on the location of your accommodation.
