Praia dos Ingleses, Beach in Florianópolis, Brazil
The 5.2-kilometer stretch of white sand features areas with varying wave intensities, from gentle waters in the south to stronger currents in the north point.
The beach received its name from an English shipwreck between 1683 and 1737, with divers discovering remnants of the vessel in 1989.
Local fishermen maintain traditional mullet fishing practices, contributing to the area's reputation for record-breaking catches and fresh seafood restaurants.
The beach offers complete infrastructure with hotels, restaurants, shops, lifeguards, public restrooms, and regular bus connections from Florianópolis center.
Archaeological excavations near the beach have uncovered artifacts from the English shipwreck, adding historical value to this coastal destination.
