Visiting Brazil: Garopaba (SC)

Garopaba is located on the South coast of the State of Santa Catarina, with 8 beaches, each offering unique attractions. During the 1970’s, “foreigners" carrying backpacks and tents discovered this then small fishermen village, and started to lend the city a different air and color. This kicked changes that led to what today is a city that thanks to an adequate urban land legislation, still keeps the old characteristics of the original “village”, with one and two-story houses. Blessed by nature with beauty, the city is ideal for eco tourism and the practice of sports such as: surf, windsurf, hang gliding, paragliding, trekking and enduro. For those who appreciate lively parties and lively people, there is some fancy meeting "points" along Ferrugem beach.
