Quatro Ilhas (Four Islands) is a scenic beach in the Bombinhas region, named for the four islands visible offshore. The beach produces consistent quality peaks and is notably less crowded than the famous breaks further south in Florianópolis. The clear water and surrounding nature make it a relaxing alternative.

The Quatro Ilhas profile does not specify a preferred tide stage. That does not mean tide has no effect: check local conditions alongside swell and wind.
The Quatro Ilhas profile uses wind from N (0°) as its preferred direction, with an offshore range of 315° to 45°. Wind speed matters too: light winds outside that range can still produce surfable conditions, while strong offshore winds can make takeoffs difficult.
The Quatro Ilhas scoring profile favors swell from ESE (90° to 157°), a swell-height range of 0.9m to 2m, and a reference period of 12s. These are model inputs, not guaranteed breaking-wave heights or a promise that the surf will suit every ability.
The main season at Quatro Ilhas is Jan-Dec. Year-round
