per groupA boat lunch in Florianópolis, Brazil, takes a couples format in the VIP Lunch with the Captain: the experience is for two people, and the one cooking is Captain Dimi himself, on the boat. It leaves at 11 a.m. from the Deck do Passeio in Barra da Lagoa and returns at 2 p.m., with a time that can be adjusted. The route covers the natural pools of Barra da Lagoa and Lagoa da Conceição, or only the lagoon, depending on weather conditions. The menu includes anchova (bluefish) fried in butter with capers, shrimp, shellfish and squid in light batter, according to what is available that day.
The trip takes place on the east side of the island in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, where the Barra da Lagoa channel connects Lagoa da Conceição to the sea. When conditions allow, the route includes the natural pools of Barra da Lagoa and Lagoa da Conceição; when the weather calls for it, the trip stays on the lagoon only. The choice is made on the day, and the table on board follows the change of scenery.
What sets it apart is the kitchen: lunch is cooked on board by Captain Dimi, who prepares the meal for the couple. The menu features anchova (bluefish) fried in butter with capers, shrimp, shellfish and squid in light batter, always depending on what is available that day. The experience is designed for two people, lasts 3 hours and is rated easy, with accident insurance and life jackets included.

Why it is worth it Many people assume a boat trip with lunch has to take up the whole day; here it is 3 hours, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with the meal cooked on board and made for the couple. The mix of a boat of their own, Captain Dimi's cooking and a route through the natural pools and the lagoon, when the weather allows, gives the trip a format for two. Since the menu depends on what is available that day, it helps to go without a fixed dish in mind and a willingness to taste whatever is on the table.
Expert's verdict “I have done many boat trips and I still like a lunch cooked on board, without any rush. For a couple, it is a simple and different way to spend a few hours together.” — Guta, co-founder of Acalanta
