The beautiful beaches in Florianopolis are definitely not few in number. The popular island in Southern Brazil is known for its picturesque coastline. While I wasn’t that impressed with the island I cannot say anything remotely offensive of the beaches I found (after further investigation). I would prefer the beaches a bit north in Paraty.

The beaches of Copacabana have turned dirty and filled with souvenir hustlers. […]
