👍👍 Great way to learn about turtles and how important they are to our seas.
They offer free guided tours and it is really worth it. Reach out to them before going to make sure you get there at the right time.

Praia dos Açores
Public beach
👍👍 Not too busy, somewhat remote in regards to proximity to Florianópolis (Floripa). Super strong under tow in places, best to swim when the tide is coming in. Small to medium sized waves. Large waves are rare in good weather.
