Discover Local Balneário Camboriú: What to Do Around Mercure Balneário Camboriú
At Mercure, we believe you shouldn't need a guidebook to feel like you belong somewhere. That's the idea behind Discover Local: since 1973, every Mercure hotel has been built around its neighbourhood, not just dropped into it — from the décor on the walls to the flavours on the menu. Step into any Mercure and our teams are on hand with the kind of tips you won't find in a guidebook: the market stall locals queue for, the bar where nobody speaks English, the walk that skips the crowds. They live here. They know. Discover Local isn't a generic city guide — it's a short, honest list of the restaurants, markets and neighbourhoods our own hotel teams actually recommend to guests, updated as the city changes around us. Below, you'll find our picks for Balneário Camboriú, an interactive map to help you find your way, and answers to the questions travellers ask us most. So — where will Discover Local take you?
Balneário Camboriú in 5 picks
Praia Central
The city's main beach runs right past the hotel's front door, a wide stretch of sand backed by the high-rise skyline Balneário Camboriú has become known for.
Parque Unipraias
Forty-three cable cars link three stations, climbing from the south end of Praia Central over Morro da Aguada down to Praia de Laranjeiras - the only cable car of its kind connecting two beaches. Add the zipline or the mountain-coaster track for the ride back down.
Cristo Luz
At 33 meters, this is the tallest illuminated Christ statue of its kind, lit up nightly with a synchronized light show over the Morro da Aguada viewpoint.
Praia de Laranjeiras
Reachable by cable car, boat, or road, this is the wide, calmer beach on the other side of the headland - worth the trip for a full day away from the central strip.
Beto Carrero World
Brazil's biggest theme park, about a 39-minute drive from the hotel - a solid full-day family outing if you want a break from the beach.
FAQ
About a 39-minute drive, making it an easy day trip if you want a break from the beach.
