The city of Balneário Camboriú, Brazil is home to 30 skyscrapers taller than 150 meters (492 feet), five of which are taller than 200 m (656 ft) as of 2025. Balneário Camboriú is a coastal city in the state of Santa Catarina with a municipal population of 139,155. The city is a popular tourist destination among Brazilians and for South Americans in general, which swell the city's population considerably to over a million during the summer.[1] Rising real estate prices have also encouraged vertical development;[2] the city has the highest price per square meter in Brazil.[3] This has led to the construction of numerous residential skyscrapers and high-rises on the city's waterfront, also known as Barra Sul.[4] The prevalence of tall buildings has led given Balneário Camboriú the nickname of "Brazilian Dubai"[5][6]
While Balneário Camboriú had built up a coastal skyline of high-rises by the 2000s, the city's first skyscraper to reach 150 m (492 ft) in height was only completed in 2012. The city has been undergoing a construction boom in skyscrapers starting from the early 2010s, a trend that has intensified into the 2020s. Since the early 2020s, the boom has also spread to the neighbouring coastal cities of Itapema, Itajaí, and Navegantes, all of which are receiving an increasing number of high-rise proposals.
The tallest buildings in the city are the twin skyscrapers of the Yachthouse Residence Club complex, built in 2023. Both buildings rise to a height of 294 m (965 ft), near the 300-meter mark required to be considered a supertall skyscraper. The buildings are also the tallest in Brazil. Indeed, the city's four tallest buildings all correspond to the four tallest buildings in Brazil. This is quite unusual as most country's tallest buildings are located in their largest cities; Unlike many of Brazil's major cities, such as São Paulo, Balneário Camboriú has lax height restrictions, allowing for the construction of particularly tall skyscrapers.[7] Many of the tallest buildings in the city were developed by FG Empreendimentos.[7]
Construction began in 2025 on Senna Tower, a supertall skyscraper that is expected to reach 544 m (1,785 ft) in height. When complete, it will replace Gran Torre Costanera in Santiago as the tallest building in South America, and Central Park Tower in New York City as the tallest residential building in the world.
