Balneário Camboriú: Urban upgrades and climate resilience

Overview

Balneário Camboriú is advancing a multi-faceted urban, economic, and climate-risk strategy. To mitigate El Niño-related risks, the city is tripling emergency shelter capacity to accommodate up to 900 people and has launched a ‘Defesa Civil’ module in the BC Digital app for real-time weather and landslide monitoring. Infrastructure and urban development remain central. A R$ 53 million plan includes a macro-drainage system on the north beach and the Barra Sul waterfront reurbanization. Recent works include the ‘Praia 100% Limpa’ initiative, which has completed 43% of its auxiliary sewage network along Avenida Brasil. Emergency slope stabilization began on Rua Indonésia in July to prevent rockfalls. Additionally, the city has implemented new regulations for beach-side vendors and continues to manage traffic detours for ongoing gas, sewage, and coastal redevelopment projects. Economic and cultural activity is robust. The third Construsul BC exhibition drew 20,000 visitors, generating R$ 300 million in business. The city also hosts various cultural events, such as the ‘Cultura na Rua’ project, the ‘Festa Raízes de Taquaras’ (now declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage), and the CASACOR Santa Catarina architecture exhibition. The local real estate market remains strong, with residential prices reaching R$ 15,228 per square meter in June. Governance continues to shape the skyline; the municipality recently halted a 42-storey tower by expropriating its airspace to enforce a 24.5m height limit. Simultaneously, urban-planning studies are underway to requalify Avenida Brasil and the North and South Pontais as part of the ongoing municipal master plan revision. Recent developments highlight continued investment in tourism and services. Over R$ 2 billion has been invested in theme parks and urban improvements, including the ongoing Barra Sul waterfront urbanization, to support tourism beyond the summer season.
