Praia do Saquinho

Praia do Saquinho, Small coastal beach in southern Santa Catarina Island, Brazil.

Praia do Saquinho is a small beach on the southern coast of Santa Catarina Island, bordered by rock formations that create a natural cove. The water takes on a turquoise hue in clear weather, and the sand is light and fine.

The sources document no settlement history or naming origin for Praia do Saquinho; they record only its geography. It lies at the extreme southern end of the oceanic face of Santa Catarina Island, in Florianópolis, between Praia da Solidão and Praia de Naufragados, and is reached on foot by a 20-minute trail from Praia da Solidão.

The name Saquinho, a diminutive of saco, refers to the small cove formed between the beaches of Solidão and Naufragados. The 75-metre strip of white sand lies at the southern end of the ocean-facing side of Santa Catarina Island, reached on foot by the Trilha do Saquinho.

Access requires hiking a steep trail that begins from Praia da Solidão and demands reasonable fitness. Visitors should bring water and food, as few facilities exist at the site.

The beach is only 75 metres long, a narrow strip of white sand between the Praia da Solidão and Praia de Naufragados, on the ocean-facing south end of Santa Catarina Island. Its clear water comes with rough surf, so swimmers stay close to the sand while the waves break along the whole short shoreline.
