Porto Belo - General Info
Description:
Located just north of Florianopolis, this area is very quiet and beautiful. The Yacht Club, however, is prohibitively expensive. A good, much more reasonable alternative, is Itajai which is 24 kms (15 miles) north. It is not mentioned in any pilot book.
Position:
27° 08.75’S, 48° 32.24’W (moorings)

The Iate clube Porto Belo is quite expensive. For our 44 ft yacht they quoted us RS 660 per day (the equivalent of € 220).
A good alternative is Itajai which is 15 miles north. It is not mentioned in any pilot book. The pontoons for the Volvo Ocean Race stopover are here. There are basic facilities (power, water). The berths are in the middle of town. Good provisioning, good connections by bus to other places in Brazil. In September 2014 we payed RS 1 per foot per day. First two days free. Pleasant city, lovely people. We feel very welcome here.
