(Translated by Google) 🚲✨ The Bicycle Museum in Joinville is much more than a collection of antiques; it's an invitation to reflect on sustainable mobility and environmental respect today. In times when we seek alternatives for a healthier and more conscious life, the bicycle remains a symbol of freedom, simplicity, and connection with our surroundings. Visiting museums is like traveling back in time, realizing how something so simple can transform cities and lives.🚲🚴🏻‍♂️🚵🏻‍♂️ (Original) 🚲✨ O Museu da Bicicleta em Joinville é muito mais do que um acervo de peças antigas, é um convite para refletirmos sobre a mobilidade sustentável e o respeito ao meio ambiente nos dias atuais.

(Translated by Google) With free admission, the Bicycle Memorial is located in a beautiful, enormous building that once housed the railway's cargo terminal. The exhibition space is located in half of this building, which resembles a large warehouse inside. As for the bicycles, there are many, from various brands and countries. Right at the entrance, I was surprised to find a Monark bicycle, a model from the 1970s. The bike was exactly like one I had, right down to the color. The bicycles are separated into sets with explanatory texts that draw analogies to the history of Joinville, all very interesting. There are old bicycles that were found in poor condition and have been restored, children's bicycles, exotic bicycles, and many others. I really enjoyed the experience and recommend it; the visit takes about an hour. Be aware that the memorial closes at 4 PM. (Original) Com entrada gratuita, o Memorial da Bicicleta está localizado num edifício bonito e enorme, onde antigamente funcionava o terminal de cargas da ferroviária. O espaço expositivo é em metade deste edifício, que dentro lembra um grande galpão. Quanto as bicicletas, são muitas, de várias marcas e países, inclusive, logo na entrada, me surpreendi com uma bicicleta monark, um modelo da década de 70, a bicicleta era igualzinha a uma que tive, até a cor. As bicicletas estão separadas em conjuntos com textos explicativos e que fazem uma analogia com a história de Joinville, tudo muito interessante. Há bicicletas antigas que foram encontratas em péssimo estado e foram restauradas, há bicicletas infantis, bicicletas exóticas, entre muitas outras. Gostei muito da experiência e recomendo, a visita leva mais ou menos 1h. Fique atento, pois o memorial fecha às 16h.

(Translated by Google) Aww, I liked the memorial, even though it's small. It has a decades-long history, and the bikes are well-preserved. It's worth a visit! It's located inside an old cargo terminal, and you can still see the tracks and the station up ahead, which they're currently renovating. The staff is super polite, admission is free, and parking is right in front of it, right on the street! (Original) Aaahh eu gostei do memorial por mais que seja pequeno, tem toda uma história de décadas, as bicicletas estão bem conservadas, vale a pena passar por lá! Fica dentro de um antigo terminal de cargas, ainda da pra ver os trilhos e a estação mais a frente que por sinal estão reformando. Funcionários super educados, entrada gratuita e estacionamento bem na frente, na rua mesmo!

(Translated by Google) The staff were super welcoming and attentive, and they gave us lots of tips! It's a shame the collection's conservation isn't more efficient... we noticed significant deterioration of the pieces... But the tour is worth it... there's so much history of bicycles and the transportation of the city's residents to discover! (Original) Funcionários super receptivos, atenciosos e nos deram muitas dicas!!! Uma pena que a conservação do acervo nao ser mais eficiente ... percebemos grande deterioração das peças...

Joyce D — Google review
(Translated by Google) Canto Grande Beach, in Bombinhas, is a true treasure for those who love nature and tranquility. Besides its clear waters and peaceful atmosphere, it offers one of the most beautiful sunsets in the region, a spectacle worth taking your time to enjoy. The setting is perfect for those who want to relax and enjoy special moments, whether alone, with family or friends. Access is easy, but parking can be limited during high season. Without a doubt, it's a place that enchants with its views and the peace it exudes. (Original) A Praia do Canto Grande, em Bombinhas, é um verdadeiro tesouro para quem ama natureza e tranquilidade. Além de suas águas claras e ambiente sossegado, ela oferece um dos pores do sol mais lindos da região, um espetáculo que vale a pena conferir com calma. O cenário é perfeito para quem quer relaxar e aproveitar momentos especiais, seja sozinho, com família ou amigos. O acesso é fácil, mas o estacionamento pode ser limitado na alta temporada.

We went for Oktoberfest so was great to visit. Well set up and decorated. Like a little German village dull of shops as well as the large hall where the live bands and dancing was held. Extremely busy on the Saturday, hard to walk and waited in line for food, beer or toilet for at least 20 minutes. Friday was better as less people. You can purchase the ticket across the road for the Oktoberfest before entering. Full german costume gets you half price entry. Food was average.

Nick D — Google review
The Americas have a completely wrong idea as to what makes a city livable. This is a place that boasts a sandy beach but waves that make swimming unfeasible. Proof of that is that 90% of the beachgoers are lying or sitting on the beach, but very few venture to go inside the sea and even fewer bother to swim. Add to that the mostly cloudy skies and the ever-present rain, and you've got the picture. Furthermore, there are no cafés to speak of as coffee culture in these parts of the world is practically nonexistent, and the restaurants are nothing to brag about. Finally ,the absence of any other form of entertainment makes this place an absolute tedium. Complete waste of my money. Give me the Mediterranean any time!

These dunes are amazing. It costs R$20 per hour and they give you a bracelet so you are the only person allowed to use it for that hour. It is quite high and tirering so if your physical conditions aren't the best you might struggle with it. There are car parks nearby and they cost around R$10/20 per day but you can also park on the street and it will be fine. Some car parks have showers and toilets included on these prices. The boards are in good condition here and the staff is helpful. They also give you wax so the board can get more speed. The beach is nearby and you can get there walking. If the temperature is less than 25 degrees the water might be cold and it might bring jelly fishes. There are restaurants and bars in there. The dunes are just perfect and the moisture from the sea helps it to be in the best condition. Do not buy water from the place in front of it as it tastes like swage and it looks like they have bottled it themselves.

All the beaches here on this island are gorgeous and this one is no exception. White sand clear blue water and a background of greenery and hills. You can't beat it. It's a beach break and although the waves were too small it would probably leave you very good here for surfing their body surfing.

This is a fantastic beach amazing for playing volleyball. Get to know other people find amazing friends just relax on the beach. Enjoy the nature. The views the waves are friendly. A lot of people do windsurfing which is fantastic. There are rocky areas on the left side. Be careful about them if you go there make sure that you step on stable and Certain places not to fall between the rocks. There will be dangerous people who sell stuff by the beach are friendly and welcoming, which was amazing to there are some showers right outside the beach, which were also clean and amazing and I really liked them.

Campeche Island

Island
Nature & Parks
Campeche Island, located off the coast of Florianópolis, is a treasure trove of ancient archaeological sites and natural beauty. The island is known for its pristine sands, calm waters, and hidden coves that offer stunning views of cliffs and rock formations. Visitors can join organized boat tours departing from Armacao Beach to explore the island's clear waters and preserved natural park.
If you are in Floripa a visit to this Island is a must. It is absolutely stunning. You can access it from a few places but we chose to get a boat from Campeche Beach (10 minutes). Tip - get their early as people queue from 8am because they only allow limited numbers on the Island.

Mansour M — Google review
It is a must-visited Campeche Island. The best advice I can give is to check the weather before you go, choose an agency to buy it a few days before you plan going because it is a really popular place, if you arrive there without your ticket probably you will face a big queue to try to take the boat! If you have problems with the boat, bring your medicine because it will take 40 min by boat to get there! The water is beautiful, paradise!

A beautiful island with calm but freezing water. If you go on the weekend, there are many boats obstructing the view of the ocean. Nonetheless, the island feels calm and relaxed. We (foreigners) were told it costs 300 reais per person round trip to the island. When we said we don't have that much cash, they lowered it to 200 reais per person (Feb 2022). Still expensive based on other comments here, but I guess that's the price you pay for not being brazilian.

Farol de Santa Marta is a picturesque whitewashed lighthouse located amidst beaches and sand dunes, offering stunning views and photo opportunities from its summit. The well-maintained antique structure, once powered by whale oil, stands out with its bright white paint. Accessible via a relatively easy trail that meanders through blooming flowers and fluttering butterflies in the summer, this location also attracts birdwatchers due to the diverse bird species flying around the area.
Very nice place to visit, you have to hike a little to get tp the top but overall the view is amazing 👏.
Alexander A — Google review
Spectacular view from the top of the hill where the lighthouse sits. You have to park your car on the street and walk up a trail to the top of the hill , but it’s and extremely easy walk without too much inclination. It was summer when we went, so flowers were blooming and butterflies where hovering all around. This is a fascinating location for birdwatchers given the variety of birds flying around the trail. Once at the top of the hill and facing north, there’s is a stunning view of an old cemetery overlooking the ocean and a sand dune covered beach. Facing west, you are directly about the beach and town of Santa Marta. And East, is obviously an open view of the ocean crashing upon rocks. The lighthouse was closed, but even so, the view is worth the short hike up.

An antique lighthouse that long ago functioned with whale oil. Beautiful and well-maintained, with bright white paint. The reason I only gave 4 stars was due to faulty directions, Google deposited us next to a cemetery. A couple of locals told us we could get to the lighthouse from there, and we found a section of fence missing and a small footpath twisting among cactus and tall grasses and weeds. Once we arrived at the lighthouse we pivoted and saw a sign behind us warning that venomous snakes were in that area. The area we had just crossed. Now we had a snake-infested field between us and 12-yr-old and our car. We couldn't shout a warning to our kid because of the wind and waves, but fortunately he didn't try to follow us. Anyway, I'm going to try to suggest a different route, but if you end up next to a cemetery, don't walk through the plants to get to the lighthouse!

If you have experience with simple trails you dont need to go with a guide. BUT. you need a good gps. I used the garmin 66sr NOT a phone gps. There is no signal. Its hard to find the trail sometimes, especially when crossing the river. Snake protection is recommended and dont touch anything. Go long sleeved, and with long pants, vegetation is dense. Families or non biologists, I strongly recommend a guide. especially if there is rain its dangerous quickly so you need to be able to ‚read‘ the sky and weatherforcast.

Since it is dry season, most of the trail is through rocks. At the end of the trail there is a pool and I couldn't resist... I loved seeing the canyon in the lower part by Praia Grande.

The 3.5km walk to see the canyon exit is highly recommended for its impressive landscape, making it a great destination for families.
The canyons park is good. The 3.5km walk to see the canyon exit is very good, and the landscape is very impressive. Good to go with your family. Remember to get a jacket before to go: the weather changes quickly.

The most beautiful part of this place is the nature. Therefore there's no have safe structure for your children or pets. There's no signals or posts of directions on the road. The road that we used was very straight. But, I have a good point to explain: the view is exciting! And there's a lot of plant types. You'll take a lot of photos on end of the day, when the sun is running away.

Magnificent Place. Worth every jolt of the 20+20 km of dust road. Go to the old house at the end of the short trail, drink a coffee and get in touch with the resident.

Amazing place and free entrance. No climbing but need to walk a lot to get there. Longer course is better.

Nature & Parks
Aparados da Serra National Park is a stunning natural reserve located in Cambara do Sul, with headquarters for both Aparados da Serra and Serra Geral National Parks. The park boasts breathtaking canyons like Itaimbezinho, Fortaleza, Churriado, and Malacara.
Very beautiful views even with fog. The best part was the little house that sells homemade pastel!

This park is for the rich, not for normal people, to whom it should be accessible! The greed is disgusting. With all the taxes wasted in Brazil, there was not money left to make national heritage accesible to the general public? Whoever is responsible for this absurd entrance fee and commercial industrialization of national heritage should be ashamed, and the state lawmakers should do something. In Rio de Janerio, National Parques are for free. Poor or rich, anyone can enter for free. In Rio Grande do Sul, all parks are difficult to enter (registration processes for national forests are stupidly beaurocratic, and extreme fees for national parks). Its beyond absurd, especially considering how much nature has been destroyed. Never seen anything like in Rio Grande do Sul before. Not in Brazil and not in any other country. Basically no forest or park where people can just go for free without paying fees or registrating 3 days in advance through beaurocratic application forms, having to wait for approval. Absurd and unjust. Its a disgrace!

Amazing place, but be mindful of the weather. I've been told that the winter is the best season to visit. If you visit during the summer you might end up only seeing fog like I did. 🙃

The park is really beautiful and definitely worth visiting. They ask for donations as the government no longer supports it fully or at all! The information centre is in need of updating as is the picnic area and some of the paths.
