South Region

Go surfing on the choppy waves and work on your tan while lazing on the pristine beaches in the resort towns and modern cities.

The South Region of Brazil is known for its long stretches of sand, cosmopolitan cities and the world-famous Iguaçu Falls. It is among the most affluent and developed parts of the country, featuring three states heavily influenced by European culture. Travel through the area to get a sense of the different cultures in Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and Paraná. 

The state of Paraná has Foz do Iguaçu, a small town containing its namesake set of waterfalls considered a wonder of the world. Explore the Brazilian and Argentine sides of the Parque Nacional do Iguaçu for different angles of the main waterfall. The park has a total of 275 cascades and an eclectic range of exotic wildlife and flora.

Travel east to the modern state capital of Curitiba. Stroll down its pleasant boulevards and relax in the parks and gardens. The city is often used as a base for exploring the Parque Estadual de Vila Velha and its range of misshapen and intriguing red rock formations. Take a train journey along spectacular cliff edges to reach the colonial town of Morretes.

Consider a change of scenery with a trip south to the state of Santa Catarina. Work on your tan in the hot summers on one of the countless beaches on Santa Catarina Island. Find secluded coves, join the surfers on the waves and hang out with backpacker communities. Today, the historic city of Florianópolis is among the most popular beach resorts, with a fun and lively atmosphere.

The country’s southernmost state of Rio Grande do Sul is characterized by flat pampas with cattle herders. Consider wine tours in Bento Gonçalves and relax in the large riverside city of Porto Alegre.

This large South Region includes the southern part of Brazil and shares borders with Argentina and Uruguay. Fly to any of the international airports in Foz do Iguaçu, Florianópolis, Porto Alegre and Curitiba. 

The South Region combines some of nature’s most spectacular designs with vibrant beach resorts.

The staff were nice enough and the breakfast wasn’t bad, but the room was subpar. Water stained walls, leaky air conditioner, shower didn’t drain and maybe the sheets and towels were clean but they were stained.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to South Region during the COVID-19 outbreak?
In the face of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling now comes with more challenges than usual. Have a read over these handy tips before jumping on your flight to South Region:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking anything. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
  • To minimize the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
  • TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • To reduce handling during the screening process, put items such as your phone, wallet and keys into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • Transport your food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open your bag for inspection.
