The
southern coast of Santa Catarina is one of the most popular
surfing areas in Brazil, and that’s exactly where
Guarda do Embaú is. It is considered one
of the ten most beautiful beaches in Brazil and can only
be reached by boat. The river crossing is very
short and sometimes, when the tide is low, you can cross
it on foot.
Right
in front of this beach is Ilha dos Corais, one of the
best sites for underwater fishing in all of Brazil.
Local fishermen organize boat trips to the island all
year round. Guarda do Embaú is on the coast of
Santa Catarina, 30 miles south of Florianópolis.
