Caixa d’Aço is a sheltered cove next to Porto Belo, on the coast of Santa Catarina, and a speedboat is the practical way to use it: deep, calm water as a starting point, with the rest of the coast only minutes away.
We list speedboats operating from this area, with private charters and a skipper included. Prices are in Brazilian reais (BRL), and payment terms are confirmed with each quote.
Pick a boat below and send us your date, group size and preferred route.
The usual format is a private charter of four to eight hours with a skipper included and the boat reserved for your group alone. You choose the departure time, and the skipper shapes the route around the sea and wind that day.
The cove is often one of the stops as well as the departure point: the water stays calm even when there’s swell outside, which makes it a comfortable anchorage for swimming and for eating on board without motion.
Ilha de Porto Belo sits just offshore, with a well-known circuit around it and decent snorkelling. To the south begins the Bombinhas peninsula, with coves such as Sepultura, Tainha and the Quatro Ilhas stretch, separated by rocky headlands and far quicker to reach by sea than by road.
Northward, the coast runs toward Balneário Camboriú, past the quiet beaches between the two towns. Shallow draft is an advantage in the smaller coves: speedboats anchor closer to the sand than larger boats, which matters in January and February.
A skipper comes with the boat. Fuel, food, drinks, snorkelling gear and extra hours vary by boat and are confirmed with our team in each quote. All prices are starting prices and change with the date, the number of guests and the route.
High season runs from December to March, when the region fills and the cove crowds with boats. Water clarity is generally best in the warmer months, though it swings with wind and swell week to week. April, May and October usually combine good weather, empty anchorages and much better availability.
Charters depend on sea conditions. If the forecast turns, our team gets in touch to reschedule.
