How to get to Praia Grande - SC

Discover the main ways to get to Praia Grande, Santa Catarina, the Capital of Canyons.


Praia Grande is located in the extreme south of Santa Catarina, right on the border with Rio Grande do Sul. We are approximately 21 km from BR101, and 36km from Torres (RS) and 110km from Criciúma (SC). In the region, there is some confusion as to which is the easiest way to get here, due to its proximity to Cambará do Sul (RS), the easiest route ends up being to come via the Coast for those coming from Porto Alegre (RS), around 230 km from here, like those coming through Florianópolis (SC), around 270km away from Praia Grande.


Easy and peaceful access to the Canyons

Due to this ease of access to BR101 and being between the two largest airports in southern Brazil, Praia Grande ends up being a great option for those who want to discover the Canyons of Southern Brazil.
