Folha Beach Club

4.1
(237 reviews)
Jurerê Internacional, Florianópolis

Folha Beach Club operates as a beachfront venue in Jurerê with daytime pool and beach programming that transitions into evening party hours, with a focus on gastronomy alongside the standard beach club drink and DJ services. The venue draws a polished crowd of locals and South American summer tourists rather than the international DJ-chasing crowd that fills P12. The food side is taken seriously, with a kitchen that handles proper restaurant-quality plates across the day. DJ programming runs lighter than the flagship venues, with house and Brazilian electronic music dominating rather than the international techno bookings. Pricing matches the Jurerê premium tier across food, drinks, and bottle service.

Insider Tip

Full Review

Folha Beach Club sits on Avenida dos Búzios in Jurerê Internacional with a layout organized around a beachfront pool deck and a serious restaurant program that operates throughout the day. The pool and lounger areas handle the standard beach club daytime format. The kitchen runs proper restaurant service with menu offerings comparable to the better Jurerê dining venues. The DJ booth becomes the focus as the afternoon shifts into evening, though the programming runs at lower intensity than the dedicated party venues.

The gastronomy focus is the venue's distinctive feature. The menu handles seafood, grilled meats, sushi, and Mediterranean dishes at standards that compete with proper restaurants rather than the standard beach club kitchen output. Dishes rotate seasonally with the higher-end ingredient choices that Jurerê's premium clientele expects. Pricing for mains runs R$70-150, which is fair for the quality and below comparable São Paulo or Buenos Aires venues.

The programming and crowd skew toward a quieter, more sophisticated Jurerê experience than P12 or 300 Cosmo. The DJ calendar leans toward house and Brazilian electronic music rather than international techno headliners. The crowd is dominated by Argentine, Paraguayan, and Brazilian summer regulars who return year after year, with a strong family and couples component during dinner hours transitioning into the smaller late-afternoon dance crowd. The dress code follows Jurerê standards with enforcement on the polished side.

The cost structure runs the Jurerê premium tier across the board. Cover charges R$60-200 for regular Sundays. Cocktails R$45-80, beer R$25-45. Bottle service R$1,500-3,500 across the various positioning tiers. Lunch and dinner reservations typically include access and serve as the easiest entry route for visitors who want to combine dining with the beach club experience.
