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 reach this slice of paradise in the Brazilian Atlantic. Here you’ll enjoy between 5 and 6 hours of free time to explore a unique spot in Brazil, shaped by the Rio do Madre as it flows into the Atlantic coast. The beach itself is situated on a stretch of sand between the two waters.

The name Guarda do Embaú originates from the treasure chests hidden by pirates in the past. Buccaneers allegedly buried their treasures on this beach (in a baú, meaning chest in Portuguese). Could this be true? And could you find them?

During lunch, try the fresh fish and seafood from the region or a delicious Brazilian feijoada. Bon Appetit!

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