<\/figure>\n\n\n\nHistory of Cacup\u00e9<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The history of Cacup\u00e9 dates back to colonial times, when the region was inhabited by indigenous tribes and later by Azorean fishermen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its name is of indigenous origin, derived from the Tupi-Guarani language, and means \u201cgreen behind the hill\u201d, which indicates the presence of dense vegetation in the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although there are no records of indigenous settlements in the area, the neighborhood's name suggests the passage of these peoples through the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Historically, Cacup\u00e9 was linked to the town of Santo Ant\u00f4nio de Lisboa, which was an important customs center in the 18th and 19th centuries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The beaches of Cacup\u00e9 were used for fishing and living by the settlers, who grew corn, beans, manioc, some fruit and cattle on the land in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The beach also has historical importance as a landing place for military troops during the Federalist Revolution at the end of the 19th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Interestingly, Cacup\u00e9 is also known for its relationship with local folklore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Legend has it that Cacup\u00e9 beach was the meeting place of the mystical beings known as \u201cwater-mothers\u201d, who supposedly inhabit the waters of the North Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cacup\u00e9 is a spectacular place, with stretches divided by rock formations and small hills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The region is divided into Cacup\u00e9 Grande and Cacup\u00e9 Pequeno, with the former consisting of a single strip of sand and the latter of four. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Each of these four lanes has a popular name based on the names of the residents who settled there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n From the north-south direction, the beaches that make up Cacup\u00e9 Pequeno are: Praia do Vivino, Praia do Hip\u00f3lito (or das Irm\u00e3s), Praia do Z\u00e9 da Benta and Praia do Teodoro. Nice, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n The unique beauty of the waters and the stone formations make each of these beaches a true paradise for those who want to disconnect from the world and enjoy nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With the variety of landscapes that Cacup\u00e9 has to offer, it's easy to understand why this neighborhood is so popular at sunset with locals and tourists visiting Florian\u00f3polis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Discover the unspoiled beauty of this unique place that is Cacup\u00e9 and its sunset or view of the Hercpilio Luz bridge and enjoy unforgettable moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cacup\u00e9 beach is 20 kilometers from the city center and can be reached via Avenida Beira-Mar Norte, up the CIC elevated road and along Avenida da Saudade until you reach the SC-401 (Jos\u00e9 Carlos Daux) highway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This highway connects the city center to the central and northern beaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Follow this highway straight until you reach Square Corporate on Rodovia Virg\u00edlio V\u00e1rzea. Follow the signs, the route is usually well signposted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By car<\/strong> Once over the bridge, stay in one of the two right-hand lanes, heading towards Avenida Beira Mar and Norte da Ilha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just follow the signs to the north of the island and take the SC-401 from km 17 to Rod. Virg\u00edlio V\u00e1rzea in Saco Grande.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Take the Haroldo Soares Glavan road to Cacup\u00e9 beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Buses<\/strong> Go to platform C, where the urban buses leave for the Santo Ant\u00f4nio Integrated Terminal (Tisan) or Trindade Terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you get to Tisan, you have to take another bus to Cacup\u00e9.
