Sambaqui is an Azorean fishing village on Florianopolis North Bay, famous for seafood restaurants serving fresh bay-cultivated oysters. Not a swimming beach but an essential culinary destination. The sunset over the mainland is spectacular. Located 20 minutes from downtown.
Forte Beach is a secluded 800-meter cove next to the 1740 São José da Ponta Grossa Fortress in north Florianopolis. Its calm, crystal-clear North Bay waters and colonial ruins make it perfect for history lovers, photographers, and those seeking solitude away from tourist crowds.
Praia do Posto de Sambaqui is a quiet extension of Sambaqui with calm waters and beautiful sunset.
