You have to take a little trail to get to the beach! It's beautiful, has restaurants with bathroom. Not to crowed, people super polite. I recommend for half day if you are adventurous and want to know more of the island or an entire day because it's totally worth it!

It is my favourite beach in Floripa. Is beautiful, calm and clean.
You can only access by foot (10 minutes walking from Armação beach).

the beach is accessible over a bridge and along a bit of a trail, and if you go further past the beach and follow the trail you come to a rocky area where you can jump in the sea, wonderful views along the route with great photo opportunities along the route

Very nice beach, very calm, some restaurants and bars. The landscape is amazing. For those who loves the little fisherman boats will love that. It was my first time there and i want to go back. The water was not so cold as the normal one in that side of the island.

This beach is a great place for surfers and for relaxing, especially for people seeking a quieter place to spend time since this beach is not usually crowded (except for surfers).
If you wanna surf there just be careful with the locals. If the left corner is too crowded try to find a more spacious site on the right corner of the beach. The waves are good there when the south wind blows.
There is no car access to this beach so if you go there you need to park in the nearby area and walk to the beach but it's not distant if you find a good spot.
It's definetly a very beautiful beach to visit and when the right swell comes and the right wind is blowing it's an excelent surfing spot!

Nice beach in south of Florianópolis. There are few restaurants there, but they're good and not so expensive. No car acess. you must walk to get there, and there is 2 options: a shallow (and polluted) river or a bridge. For both acess, you get a small trail after.
The southern part of Matadeiro usually have less waves, what is good for children.
For surfers: is one of the best places to surf in Florianópolis when the south wind blows. Local surfers aren't friendly; respect them. Good barrels with east swells and south wind.

It's the first place in Brazil I wanted to write a review about.
It's a small surfing paradise with perfect waves both for profi and for crazy amatures surfers)
I wish I could found out about this place earlier, not on my last day in Florianopolis.

Great unspoiled beach, popular with surfers. Be sure to visit the lookout point above the beach, Morro das Pedras, for a postcard-worthy photo.

One of the best beaches in Florianópolis with amazing views. Offers the option of having lunch at the beach since there are some small restaurants with tables on the sand.

Olá, queria saber se tem que pagar excursão para chegar até essa praia ou se pode chegar apenas de carro? :)
Written August 19, 2018
Vc chega somente a pé, não precisa pagar nada. Tem uma trilha bem curtinha pra chegar até a praia do Matadeiro.

Floripa em julho vale a pena sim, não será dias muito quentes, mas são dias de céu aberto e noites estreladas, há alguns dias frios, mas não segue o inverno todo assim, vc pode aproveitar trilhas pois não está muito quente para fazê-las e uma vista incrível! Na lagoa da conceição onde é o bairro mais turísticos, bares e casas noturnas continuam abertas o ano todo! Vc não pegará trânsito absurdo como no verão, poderá se locomover na ilha mais rápido e visitar muito mais lugares que no meio da temporada!

Hola Martin. Te queria preguntar sobre la playa Matadeiros ya que este verano nos gustaria ir con mi flia. Dice que no se llega en auto. La pregunta es, si alquilamos una casa que esta en la playa el auto queda muy lejos??? Gracias por cualquier info que tengas! Saludos.
