About Balneario Camboriu

Balneario Camboriu is a beach resort city on the coast of Santa Catarina in southern Brazil, known for its tall skyline of apartment towers along the curved Praia Central.

The city is also close to the Beto Carrero World theme park and the port towns of Itajai and Porto Belo.

Cruise ships anchor in the bay and land passengers at the Atracadouro Barra Sul terminal at the south end of the beach. Ships call here in the southern summer, and some cruises now start and end here.
