DAY 2: Florianópolis and the Beaches
Today,
visit the city of Florianópolis, including the Metropolitan Cathedral,
home of the beautiful wood carving “Escape from Egypt.” On to the Governor’s
Palace, dating back to 1700 A.D. with its elegant
collection of furniture, art and personal artifacts. Then,
drive 10 miles northe of the city to Santo Antônio de
Lisboa, one of the oldest villages on the island of Santa
Catarina. This quaint settlement, which enjoys official
protected status because of its outstanding cultural
importance, is a treasure-trove, preserving the traditions
of a fishing village community amongst centuries-old
buildings. Its cobblestone main street is built from
rough-hewn stone dating back to the days of slavery. See the beautiful Church of Nossa Senhora das Necessidades,
considered one of the most charming on the island and
the 200 year old Casa Açoriana; now a museum and art
gallery. (B) DAY 3: Depart Florianópolis Spend the day relaxing on the beautiful beaches or
choose from one of the many activities offered at your
hotel. Afternoon transfer to the airport. (B)
