It one of the most secure cities in Brazil but you still have to be cautious when traveling, avoid walking or using public transport alone late at night, choose accommodations near main streets or more familiar neighborhoods

I went running almost every morning before sunrise and in the beach there were only elderly people, in the streets that were close to the beaches it was pretty calm as well. Maybe in the evenings motorcycles were wild but just messing around probably just because carnaval times.

Super safe, nothing happens here. Don't have to worry about safety and people are really nice, calm and sociable. Also, beaches are safe, plenty of tourists, nobody worries about robbery or violations.
Posted: March 1, 2025Floripa is a really safe city, with many nice beaches and neighborhoods. However, downtown is not very safe at night, so I wouldn’t recommend walking alone in this area at night. Areas like Campeche, Rio tavares, Lagoa da conceição are pretty safe
Posted: February 12, 2025Florianópolis is a city where I generally feel safe, especially in well-populated and tourist areas. The streets are well-lit, and there are usually people around, which makes walking at night more comfortable. However, like in any city, it's important to stay alert, as there can be cases of robberies, particularly in less busy areas or late at night. In the city center, it’s common to see homeless people, which can sometimes make certain spots feel less safe, but most of them are not a threat. Overall, by taking basic precautions, I feel comfortable moving around Florianópolis, even at night.

Florianópolis is a place with beautiful beaches and infrastructure. It is worth visiting and enjoying the tours, appreciating the landscapes, and indulging in the dining options as well. The cost of living is a bit higher.
