Balneário Rincão

Balneário Rincão is a coastal municipality in Santa Catarina with direct access to the Atlantic and several beaches spread along the shoreline. The area features gentle shores and quiet bays suitable for swimming and water sports throughout the year.

The municipality gained its independent status in 2013 after separating from neighboring administrative areas. This separation allowed local residents to establish their own governance and manage community affairs independently.

The CarnaRincão festival is central to how residents celebrate together, bringing the community together for music, dance, and street parties. Local people use this time to share their traditions and fill the streets with color and joy.

The municipality is accessible year-round, as the climate remains pleasant and beaches stay open throughout the seasons. Walking along the coast or using local roads makes exploring the area straightforward and convenient.

Natural lagoons shape the landscape and support local fishing, which remains important to many residents as a livelihood. These shallow waters are part of the natural system that forms the coastline and sustains life here.
