Hiking & Biking on the Island of Magic

The lush, mountainous coasts of white sand and sapphire seas has helped Santa Catarina quite-rightly earn a nickname; the ‘Island of Magic’. Although frequented by many visitors today, this island paradise still cradles many secluded spots and plays host to more than its fair share of heavenly bays and numerous outdoor activities, which is the focus of this exhilarating tour.

Setting off from the sanctuary of our secluded eco-lodge, surrounded by verdant vegetation on all sides, we will head off on a full exploration of the island, walking the vast maze of nature trails and biking to some of the most pristine beaches on Santa Catarina. Along the way, you can expect to see a tantalizing mix of freshwater lagoons and beautiful lookout points. We will even encounter the traditional life of a small fishing community which has managed to maintain an authentic livelihood, embracing the recent influx of visiting travelers who themselves, like us, are keen to make the most of this evergreen Island of Magic.
