When one plans on taking a trip to Brasil there are a few
places they think of going to. Normally someone will travel to Rio de Janiero,
Sao Paulo, and some might take a trip to Brasilia or Salvador. But besides
Brazilians and Latin Americans only a handful of people think about venturing
out to other places in the country.
One of those lost wonders and beauties being Florianopolis.
Floripa, also known as the Island of Magic is truly a place
of wonder. This island as so much to offer visitors, and is even one of the
safest places in Brasil. It has even been names the friendliest city in 2013 by
CNtraveler. Roughly there are 42 beaches here on the island, some being easy to
get to, and other that can only be reached by hiking to them. Those ones though
are more then worth the adventure, as they hold beauty that only seems to exist
in dreams. Besides the beaches, there are several trails that exist for those
wanting to be with nature. Some lead to secluded beaches and others even lead
to fisherman villages that can only be accessed by the trails or by boat. Right
next to all these quaint beach towns and trails there is city life for those
that enjoy that. Of course because of abundance of city life, things such as
shopping and nightlife are super easy to locate. For the nightlife one can find
many clubs and bars located around the island, mainly located in the north and
east part of island. To access the island it is quite simple as there exists
and airport about 30 minutes bus from the center of the city, and it is only an
hour plane ride from Sao Paulo. Although not many people come here outside of
Latin America, there are still many tourists that come and visit the island
during Brasilian summertime, so if one wants to come see this island and all
its beauty the best time is during the spring months of September until
November. That way there is still warmth and one can enjoy the beach with out
hundreds of people surrounding them. So if one ever finds there way to Brasil,
think about taking a brief trip to Floripa. It is a place that is unforgettable
and (in my belief) a place that needs to be a destination for beach/nature
lovers.
