Florianópolis
Brazil
November 20 - December 18, 2026
Last Spots
Lovingly nicknamed "Floripa", Florianópolis is a little slice of paradise that's off the beaten path just enough. It's an island for risk takers: We'll conquer hills to reach secluded coves, sharpen our surfing skills, harness the wind to try kiteboarding or paragliding, and taste oysters straight out of the water.
With sea swims before and after work, a laidback local culture yet buzzing nightlife on-island, and plenty of beachside sunsets to marvel at, this Chapter will fill our souls to the brim. There's a reason they call it "Ilha da Magia" (Magic Island) because everyone who visits falls under its spell!
New to WiFi Tribe? A Chapter is a month of co-living & co-working with 15-25 remote professionals and entrepreneurs. You'll arrive in a new city with an instant community of inspiring, like-minded friends to do life with (deep work on weekdays, daily hangouts, shared dinners, big adventures on weekends). Your social life is an automatic 10/10, but you choose your pace and set your schedule. And by the end, you'll leave with friends you keep traveling with for years.
Everything is co-created – NOT a tour group, a community. Most members are seasoned solo travellers who want a more connected, fun and meaningful global lifestyle – a social life that travels with them. Everyone is values-vetted (only 17% of applicants are accepted) to make sure you'll find your kind of people here. Our vibes: be kind, be bold, stay humble.
"The people in the Tribe are incredible, amazing lifelong friends - they are the community I was missing while being a digital nomad." - Triber, Wade
During the week, we'll explore different beaches after work, we'll go surfing at Joaquina, swimming at Campeche, and catch sunset at Lagoa da Conceição where we'll sip caipirinhas and feast on fresh oysters. We'll wander through the historic center, hit up local markets, try traditional açaí bowls, and embrace that laid-back island lifestyle!
Our weekends are going to be epic and we'll experience why Floripa is considered one of Brazil's most beautiful destinations! We'll island-hop to stunning spots, explore the waves and beach clubs of the northern beaches, hike a lot, discover the magic island of Campeche, and road trip across the island finding secret coves.

Highlights
We’re heading to Lagoa da Conceição, the vibrant lifestyle heart of Floripa! Think a massive saltwater lagoon, rolling dunes, and world-class surf breaks (Mole & Joaquina) right at our doorstep.
Our coliving homes are two properties in Centrinho village, a short 10 minute walk (800m) apart, making it easy to float between them for work sessions or hangs with different crews.
The first property has a large fully equipped kitchen, a spacious dedicated coworking area for productive sprints, and a pool perfect for work-break dips or sunset hangs. There's also a BBQ area. Each room in this property has A/C.
The second property is a recently renovated guest house with rooms surrounding a large central communal pool. There's a spacious kitchen and dining room, as well as a BBQ area. Each room includes A/C.
Because we're right in the village core (Centrinho village), everything is walkable and accessible on foot. Walk to waterfront cafés for morning coffee, stroll to the lagoon for sunset paddleboarding, and wander to restaurants and bars for evening hangs.
Get ready for the ultimate blend of fitness, wellness, high productivity, epic Floripa island adventures, and that community energy that makes everything more fun!
Good to Know
This is a Fit Chapter! Riley, a dedicated personal trainer, is embedded with our group for the entire month to help build sustainable healthy habits: think run clubs, daily workouts, mobility sessions, and step challenges, balanced with bar nights and pizza because wellness doesn't mean restriction! It's not a boot camp; it's about building habits that actually stick.
Centrinho village is totally walkable and everything you need daily is within 5-10 minutes on foot! For exploring beyond Lagoa (other beaches, different neighborhoods), taxis and buses are available, but keep in mind that traffic in Floripa can get congested during peak times, as the island has few major roads. Many Tribers rent scooters to zip around more efficiently.
Florianópolis is one of Brazil's safest cities with low crime rates and a relaxed island vibe. Standard awareness applies: watch belongings at busy beaches, don't leave valuables visible, but overall you can explore comfortably!
We're hitting Florianópolis as summer kicks off! Expect temperatures around 20–28°C (68–82°F).
Portuguese is the primary language. English is common in tourist areas and trendy Lagoa spots, but less so elsewhere. Learning basic Portuguese phrases will help!
Visa requirements: Brazil requires visas for citizens of the US, Australia, and Canada. The e-visa process typically takes up to five business days, but Brazilian authorities strongly recommend applying at least two months before travel. Do your research and get sorted early. Read more here.
