Praia das Palmeiras is a coastal stretch located at the municipal boundary between Penha and Balneário Piçarras in Santa Catarina. The area is characterized by relatively calm waters and a shoreline backed by residential infrastructure. The beach serves as a transitional zone between the more developed urban coastline of Piçarras and the Penha region. It maintains a lower density of commercial kiosks compared to the main beaches in Penha, offering a more residential atmosphere. The geography features fine sand and moderate surf, suitable for casual swimming and walking. The beach provides direct access to the Nereu Ramos Avenue arterial route.
