TheBeach Day
For days when the answer is just sea and sun. Toes in the sand all day. Little talk, much water.
Suggested hours. Arrange opening times, activities and meeting points before setting out.
Atmosphere
The Day
Leggero Bakery
If you don't settle for ordinary bread, Leggero is the answer. Naturally leavened loaves, and breakfast here is part of the ritual. Check gluten-free options and delivery directly with the bakery.
“Their sourdough bread is a must-try.”See in the guide
Confirm access from Ouvidor and leave time for the trail to Vermelha and back.
Praia Vermelha
Praia Vermelha is in Imbituba, between Rosa and Ouvidor, with access on foot along the headlands. A walk worth taking for the beach at the end.
“The walk is part of the outing. Leave time to enjoy the beach and return in daylight.”See in the guide
Return along the trail to the car, then drive to Luz. Confirm lunch before setting out.
Luz de Alice
Our favourite tent on Praia do Luz. Greice serves great drinks with the kind of care that makes you want to stay for hours.
“Creative, tasteful drinks and outstanding service.”See in the guide
Salt and silence at the Atelier
Return from the sea, salt still on your skin. Atelier has an outdoor tub, a breezy veranda and time for an afternoon rest.
Discover the housesAfternoon light on the headland. Adjust the time to the season and return before dark.
Praia do Luz → Rosa Sul Trail
A walk we recommend. The trail starts on Praia do Luz’s northern headland, passes Mirante do Luz and reaches Rosa Sul. The hosts allow about 25 minutes each way, plus time for stops. Check path conditions and plan the return before setting out.
“A walk with a great vibe, past grazing cows and breathtaking views.”See in the guide
Dinner to close the day; confirm days and hours with the restaurant.
Refúgio do Pescador
Refined kitchen, easy atmosphere, an excellent bar. Chef Jéssica builds a contemporary menu around local seafood — perfect for a romantic dinner with individual à la carte dishes.
“Order the octopus and don't miss the signature drinks.”See in the guide
