Passo de Torres

Passo de Torres is a coastal municipality in southern Santa Catarina that spreads across flat terrain with beaches and protected natural areas. The region connects small settlements to both urban services and access points for natural attractions.

The municipality originated from early settlements along coastal trade routes that connected Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. This strategic position shaped its growth as a commercial crossing point between two regions.

Saint Peter Church sits at the heart of community life, reflecting the strong Catholic faith that shapes local traditions. Walking through the town, you notice how religious observances remain central to daily rhythms.

The municipality connects directly to neighboring towns via road, making arrival straightforward from the main highways. You will find basic services and quick access to nearby natural areas and beaches from here.

The entire territory maintains a notably flat elevation throughout, creating a landscape without hills or significant height variations. This uniform low terrain shapes everything from drainage patterns to how the land meets the sea.
