Hey there, global adventurers! Tired of the same old beaches in Rio and the Northeast? Want a place where nature reigns supreme and the vibe is super chill? Then grab your surfboards (or just your beach towels) and come with us to Praia do Rosa in Santa Catarina, southern Brazil.
Imagine a white sand beach surrounded by lush green hills and a vibrant rainforest. That's Praia do Rosa for you! The waters are crystal clear, perfect for a refreshing dip, and the wildlife is incredible. Keep an eye out for whales (they love to put on a show here!), dolphins, and sea turtles.
The best time to come? Well, summer (December to March) is when the party is in full swing, with long days, full of sunshine. It can get crowded during January and February, but the truth is, Praia do Rosa is beautiful year-round. Whale watching is best from July to November, with a peak in September.
There's a lot do in the region:
Relax on the beach: Spread out your towel, get a tan, and soak up the vibe.
Dive into Lagoa do Meio: A freshwater lagoon perfect for swimming, kayaking, or stand-up paddleboarding.
Explore the trails: Hike through the hills and discover hidden waterfalls and panoramic views.
Whale watching: A natural spectacle you can't miss!
Horseback Riding: Great for exploring the area
Enjoy the nightlife: Charming bars and restaurants ensure fun after sunset.
It's the perfect combination of stunning natural beauty, a relaxing atmosphere, and a touch of laid-back sophistication. Brazilians and foreigners alike fall in love with this magical place.
Praia do Rosa is about 90 km from Florianópolis, the capital of Santa Catarina. For those in Europe, there are direct flights from Lisbon via TAP. For people in North America, the region can be reached through Panama City using Copa Airlines. A good idea is to rent a car to explore the region, which is really beautiful.
Finding a place to stay is not difficult: from charming pousadas to campsites (for the adventurous), Praia do Rosa has options for all tastes and budgets. We strongly recommend that you check with our friends at Cabanas Alto Mar (https://www.instagram.com/cabanasaltomar), as they rent the houses that appear at the end of the video. It's a great place to stay and the view is unbelievable, as you can see in the clip.
A few tips to fully enjoy this Brazilian jewel:
Try the excellent local cuisine, especially the fresh seafood.
Don't forget your sunscreen and mosquito repellent.
Respect nature and help keep the beach clean.
If possible, don't miss visiting the other beaches in the Garopaba region, such as Ferrugem, Praia do Silveira, Ibiraquera and Guarda do Embaú. They are all equally gorgeous and with their own charm.
If you're seeking to stay at a not so obvious beach or region in Brazil, with a touch of adventure, Praia do Rosa is your destination. Get ready to fall in love!
