About Renting a Car at Camboriú Center

Rent a car in Balneário Camboriú center and explore one of Brazil's most popular beach destinations on the Atlantic coast in Santa Catarina. From central Camboriú you can reach Praia Central in under 5 minutes and the famous Bondinho Aéreo cable car in about 10 minutes. With a rental car you can easily drive to Itajaí (20 km, about 25 min) or Blumenau (80 km, about 1 hour).

Avoid renting a car during Carnival week when traffic in the center is extremely congested and parking spaces are nearly impossible to find. Drive north on BR-101 toward Itajaí early in the morning to avoid rush hour traffic. Take the cable car to Morro do Careca and leave your car parked at the station at the base.
