Florianopolis

Florianopolis offers a delicious array of local cuisine. Be sure to try fresh seafood dishes such as seafood stew (moqueca), shrimp dumplings (pastel de camarão), and grilled fish. Also, visit the Mercado Público to sample local delicacies and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere.

Yes, Florianopolis offers a variety of outdoor activities. You can hike to Lagoinha do Leste Beach for stunning views, take a boat tour to nearby islands for dolphin and whale watching, go surfing or windsurfing at Praia da Joaquina, or explore the trails and waterfalls in the surrounding hills.
