Praia do Rosa, Beach destination in Santa Catarina, Brazil.
The wide sandy beach stretches between green hills and clear waters, forming a natural bay along the southern coast of Santa Catarina.
This former fishing settlement transformed into a surf destination during the 1970s when wave enthusiasts discovered its consistent surf conditions.
The September festival of Southern Right Whales celebrates marine life through local music, regional food, and educational activities in the neighboring town.
Visitors can reach Praia do Rosa via an 80-kilometer drive from Florianopolis International Airport, with numerous accommodations available near the beach.
Between June and November, Southern Right Whales migrate to these protected waters, making it a primary observation point along the Brazilian coast.
