Tramandaí

Tramandaí is a municipality along Brazil's southern coast, where urban areas blend with natural sandy beaches and coastal landscapes. The town features a mix of residential neighborhoods, shops, and waterfront spaces that serve both locals and visitors.

The place grew from a small fishing settlement into a modern municipality, particularly from the mid-20th century onward. This development reshaped the coastal region while fishing traditions continued to be part of local identity.

The community celebrates its connection to the sea through festivals and local food traditions that shape daily life throughout the year. These customs reflect how deeply fishing and coastal living have influenced the people here.

The municipality is accessible by road and offers various lodging options for different budgets. Restaurants, cafés, and shops are scattered throughout the area, making it possible to explore on foot or using local transportation.

Local fish markets operate where fishermen sell their daily catches directly, often remaining unknown to passing visitors despite being central to the local economy. These markets reveal how the fishing tradition continues to sustain the community today.
