FLORIANÓPOLIS

Called the "Magic Island", Florianópolis is well worth a visit in account of its pristine nature, interesting culture - there are many local fishing communities, and the variety of beaches - over 40 on the island. The many lagoons, waterfalls, towering sand dunes and beautiful views make the island very attractive.

 

PRAIA DO ROSA

The Southern Right Whales are found in Southern Brazil from July to November when they migrate to warmer waters in winter for breeding and return to polar regions in the summer. 

Extensively hunted in the past for oil and meat, they are now protected by federal laws and a recuperation program is undergoing.

The whales are easily recognized by its callosities on the head and V shaped blow. They measure between 14 - 17 meters and weight around 40-80 tones.

The whalewatching trip has land support, to spot the whales, and a biologist guide.
