[more]Santa Catarina's swankiest seaside town, Praia da Rosa, has two main attractions: a set of stunning, nearly pristine beaches and a sophisticated, eco-aware population. Oh, and many opportunities for surfing. In winter, the bay becomes a breeding ground for southern right whales, and mothers and calves can be seen from the beach. Instituto Baleia Franca, a conservation group created to protect and study these unique mammals, is based here.A two hour drive south of Brazil's most fashionable southern city, Florianopolis, and a final judder up a steep paved track way takes you to this accommodation. Perched on a hillside this eco-resort overlooks a beautiful fresh water lagoon and the perfect surf beach, Praia do Rosa. From July to November when it's cooler, migrating whales use the bay as their nursery. Located in a forest on the Atlantic coast south of Florianopolis, Pousada this accommodation is perfectly situated to explore the area, enjoy the beach or spot the whales. All rooms are charming and of a high standard equipped with television, terrace, chairs and private bathroom. facilitiessmall golftiki barfree parkingGames roomgood restaurantnigth club
