Florianópolis's legendary lagoon is one of the world's premier windsurf destinations, framed by rolling sand dunes. A private session with an elite instructor turns this bucket-list waterway into your personal playground.
What to expect
A private vehicle collects you dockside and delivers you to the palm-fringed shores of Lagoa da Conceição, the shimmering 20 km lagoon at the island's heart. A certified, English-speaking water-sports instructor provides a fully personalised windsurf or SUP session, beginning with technique on the beach before you launch onto the lagoon's famously consistent trade winds. Between sessions, explore the lagoon-side village — boutique galleries, artisan craft shops, and exceptional açaí bars line the water's edge. The excursion returns with time to spare before all-aboard.
Good to know
Lagoa da Conceição is 30 minutes from the cruise terminal. No prior experience needed — instruction is fully adapted to your level. Swimwear under clothing recommended; all equipment provided. Book 48 hours ahead to secure a private instructor slot.
