Is there coverage on the more remote southern beaches?

The north and centre of the island are very well covered with 4G, while the wilder southern beaches such as Lagoinha do Leste can thin out, especially on forest trails. Download offline maps before heading to the quieter coves.

Can I use the same eSIM on the mainland too?

Yes. This is a single national Brazil plan, so it works across the island and over the bridge to mainland Santa Catarina, from Balneário Camboriú to the German-influenced towns inland. One allowance covers the whole country.

Good to know in Florianópolis

Florianópolis is a big island with beaches spread far apart and winding roads between them, so keep live-traffic maps running; a hire car or scooter plus data beats waiting for sparse buses, especially in the high-summer crush.

Two simple ways to buy

Florianópolis eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Florianópolis eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Florianópolis — you can always top up or switch on your next trip.

Traveller streaming and browsing freely on an unlimited-data travel eSIM

Unlimited plans

High-speed data, nothing to count

Priced per day — the longer you stay, the better the daily rate. Ideal for streaming, hotspot and longer trips where you'd rather not watch a data meter. A fair-use policy keeps speeds fast for everyone; see each plan for the detail.

Best for streaming, video calls & hotspot
Great for longer or open-ended trips
One price per day — no GB anxiety

By-the-GB plans

3GB10GB20GB

A set bundle, brilliant value

A fixed data allowance (say 3 GB or 10 GB) valid for your travel days. The best-value pick for lighter trips built around maps, messaging and a bit of browsing. Running low? Top up in a couple of taps — nothing to reinstall.
