Praia Vermelha, with 480 m of extension, is located between Praia do Rosa (in Imbituba) and Praia do Ouvidor (in Garopaba, approximately 28 km from Imbituba) and was for years a private beach. Today, access to the site is free and it is only accessible through trails.
Its limpid waters tend to attract many surfers, but there are visitors who go there just for a nice swim or to relish the sight of the high hills and abundant vegetation. It is quite common to find fishermen performing traditional fishing of tainhas with nets.
If you want to get away from the excitement of the most frequented beaches, this is the ideal place. There is no infrastructure of bars or restaurants, but the exuberance of nature in the midst of a practically deserted beach is more than rewarding.
If you are staying for a long period, take supplies, proper footwear, and water.
