Florianopolis nature

While Florianopolis, Brazil is best known for its incredible beaches, world-class surfing and vibrant nightlife, Florianopolis is also blessed with natural beauty and scenery which words alone cannot describe. Florianopolis nature includes tremendously varied topography such as stunning coastlines, powerful waterfalls, expansive sand dunes, large lagoons, deep and winding forests, guarded coves and natural tide pools.

Nexus accommodations are situated directly across from the amazingly beautiful Praia Mole beach, which features top-notch waves and an electric social scene during the Brazilian summer season. Just steps away from Praia Mole lies the untouched nature preserve of Praia Galheta, also an incredible surf and hiking spot, flush with natural tide pools. Behind you are lush green mountains that encircle the world famous Lagoa da Conceição lagoon (also within walking distance from your accommodations via private access trail), creating what is surely some of Florianopolis' most picturesque scenery.
