Dunas da Joaquina, Sand dunes at Lagoa da Conceição, Brazil.
The white sand dunes extend from Avenue das Rendeiras to Joaquina Beach, creating a natural formation along the Atlantic coast of Florianópolis.
The Joaquina Dunes gained recognition in the late 20th century as the location where sandboarding emerged as a recreational activity in Brazil.
Sambão DeRaiz events occur every Sunday at the dunes, bringing together locals and visitors for traditional Brazilian music performances.
Visitors can rent wide boards for sliding down the dunes while sitting or professional sandboards for standing, with instructors available on site.
DeRaiz stands as the only establishment providing direct views of the dunes while serving refreshments and hosting regular community gatherings.
