Santo Antonio de Lisboa is the best-preserved historic Azorean neighborhood in Florianopolis with 18th-century colonial mansions and the island most beautiful sunset. Its seafood restaurants are the finest on the island. The 600-meter North Bay beach is more cultural than recreational. Just 15 minutes from downtown.
Cacupe is a quiet 400-meter North Bay beach in an upscale residential area of Florianopolis. Not ideal for swimming but perfect for kayaking, stand-up paddling, and spectacular sunset views. One of the most peaceful beaches on the island, just 12 minutes from downtown.
Cacupé Pequeno is a quiet beach on the north bay, less busy than its neighbor Cacupé Grande.
