Florianopolis in Brazil

The final destination of our journey in South America is Florianopolis in Brazil. We will stay in this beautiful Island for 2 and half weeks. We had not seen much of sea or beaches for 6 months while we travel through South America. Now It is the time for our real summer beach holiday!

Florianopolis is a popular holiday destination for beach seekers and surfers through all over South America. It has 42 beautiful beaches around the Island. You feel the instant a holiday as soon as you get here. Most of the beaches are full of people, sitting on their beach chairs under parasols. The beachside restaurants and food stalls are full of people drinking beers and eating seafood.

There are some beaches you can only get there by hiking through hills such as Naufragados, Lagoinha do Leste, Mole beach. These are a little bit quieter than others in the northern part of Island. At the end of March and beginning of April, the weather in Florianopolis is summer hot and humid. A good reason to sit on the beach all day for swimming and surfing.
