Prainha
I discovered this beach this week for the very first time. I have never been here before. It is a bit off the beaten track and probably not somewhere that many tourists find, as it is not on the maps or in the guide books. It is a short walk from Barra da Lagoa beach and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean.

Literally translated it means 'Little Beach, which is just what it is. It is so small and private that I hope that it isn't discovered by too many people.

I'm sure there are probably lots of places like this in Florianopolis if you know where to look, but also probably a lot less than there used to be.
