INGLESES BEACH
Known for being the neighborhood with the largest population in the city, Ingleses stands out for its strong network of shops and services and, of course, its beautiful beach.
On Sunday, race day, Rua das Gaivotas — the main access to the beach — will be closed for the course. If you are driving, we suggest parking near Rua Dante de Patta, Rua dos Mariscos, or Rua dos Lordes. There are several entrances to the beach; however, access must be made on foot.
We recommend athletes and family/friends use Waze App, which will be our partner during the 2025 season, indicating the best route and alternative routes to leave the neighborhood.

During the swimming stage, athletes must pass through the sand after completing approximately half of the route.

Considered by triathletes the main destination for the sport on the continent, the city has also become a national reference of innovation. The consistent growth of the technology sector even led to the Island being nicknamed Silicon Island, an allusion to Silicon Valley in the United States.
In addition to the paradisiacal beaches, famous for their fresh waters and exuberant views, visitors can enjoy the historic infrastructure in the city.
HERCÍLIO LUZ BRIDGE
Certainly, the city’s most famous postcard. Take the opportunity to visit the viewpoint located in Parque da Luz, especially in the late afternoon, where you can enjoy the sunset and a privileged view of the bridge, which has special nighttime lighting.
LAGOA DA CONCEIÇÃO VIEWPOINT
In addition to panoramic views from various points on the island, the Viewpoint offers other attractions, such as a picnic area and paragliding or hang gliding flights.
ITAGUAÇU BEACH
The nickname “Island of Magic” did not come by chance. Florianópolis is known for several myths and legends. One of them says that witches chose the Itaguaçu Beach, in the mainland region, for a party. Several mythological beings were invited, except the devil. As a form of punishment, the dark spirit transformed the witches and the guests into stones, which to this day seem to be floating in the middle of the green sea, forming a unique and charming scene.
INGLESES BEACH
A neighborhood known as “the city within the city,” offering a wide variety of options for all tastes — from rustic bars and restaurants showcasing local cuisine to charming coffee shops to relax.
Its trails also stand out as an engaging way to explore the region’s natural beauty. The neighborhood also offers seaside experiences and cultural activities, such as the Archaeological Museum, the Lithic Workshops Museum, and the Underwater Archaeology Project Visitor Center.
