The currency used in Brazil is the Brazilian Real (BRL).

However, carrying some cash is advisable for small purchases, street vendors, and in more remote areas where card acceptance may be limited.
In Florianópolis, travelers should be cautious of petty theft, especially in crowded areas and on public transportation. Common scams include overcharging by taxi drivers and unofficial vendors. It's advisable to use registered taxis or ride-sharing apps, avoid leaving belongings unattended at beaches, and be wary of overly friendly strangers offering unsolicited help or deals. Staying in well-lit areas at night and keeping valuables secure will help ensure a safe visit.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings. Keep essential items like travel documents, medication, and valuables in a carry-on bag for easy access. Use packing organizers or cubes to maximize space and maintain order.
