The south region of Florianópolis, sparsely inhabited and with its exuberant and preserved nature, has been gaining more and more the interest of tourists and new inhabitants, of different profiles. From young people, families with small children and retirees, who decide to leave other capitals and even other countries to settle on the so-called Magic Island.
The South of the island is today one of the regions that receives the most investments that contribute to local development. The new Florianópolis International Airport, which has flights to the main cities in Brazil and even to other countries, is a good example that had a great economic impact and added value to the real estate market throughout the region.
The neighborhoods of Campeche, Rio Tavares and Morro das Pedras are the neighborhoods that most invest in commercial spaces with different proposals. And if in the past growth was disorganized, today we see more and more urbanized subdivisions, closed condominiums and modern high-end commercial and residential buildings.

Many stores in the region are focused on products and services with a natural, organic, sustainable concept and with conscious consumption.
The practice of sports is a habit of the locals and many beaches are a reference for Surfing and Kite Surfing. There are numerous options for outdoor activities and many trails, which lead to reserved beaches such as Matadeiro, Lagoinha do Leste, Naufragados, among others.
