Sandboarding in Lagoa da Conceição

If you've already taken a look at “Floripa”, it's very likely that you've heard about these breathtaking dunes. Now, take this tip: Sandboarding at Lagoa da Conceição It's pure fun for the whole family.

Sandboarding, which we also affectionately call “skibunda”, is one of those programs that everyone can enjoy, from the oldest to the smallest. You don't need to be an expert in this, just bring your energy and smile. The board costs around R$30.00, and you can choose: will you take the board standing up or prefer to sit down? Oh, if it's your first time, we suggest starting with “skibunda” (sitting), because standing requires a little balance. But rest assured, the falls in the sand are the spice of this adventure!

But don't worry, we wouldn't leave you hanging. Here are some tips to ensure your experience is pure fun and completely safe:

• Put on your sunglasses and cap, it will add a stylish touch and protect you from the heat.
• Oh, don't forget the sunscreen, the sun is real here!
• Hydration is key, so bring your water bottle.
• And you can take your feet off, okay? The practice is barefoot, it's part of the fun.
• On hotter days, enjoy the dunes early in the morning or around 4 pm, when the sun takes a break.
• Dress in light, comfortable clothing, or, if you have sensitive skin, wear leggings/pants. This way, the sand doesn't require much work.
• Be careful with your electronics, because the wind here is constant and the sand is fine, so it's best to put them away and enjoy the moment.

As for parking, we've already warned you that spaces are busy. If you are not staying in Lagoa, it is preferable to use an Uber or the bus (stop number 016) that passes in front of the dunes.

And the golden tip: to make the most of it, rent your board at “Lagoa SandBoard”. There, they have everything: boards for all tastes and rentals for 1 hour (usually more than enough to have fun). If you want, you can even pay extra for a class with a qualified instructor, who will accompany you throughout the game. And you don't need to worry if you've never seen a board in your life, because the staff will teach you step by step. And at the end of the class, you will be surfing in the Floripa Dunes! And for those who already know a little, they show you the best spots to try sandboarding. So, let's go, fun is guaranteed!
