.....We are Annemaria (Dutch) and Dieter (Swiss) and we feel very lucky indeed to live in this piece of  Paradise called Florianópolis! We love nature, the lagoon and the sea – that’s why we sail!
We started ONDANÇA to combine work with pleasure! “Navigating along the beauties of live” is our motto and we shall be delighted to share this pleasure with you! ONDANÇA takes you to various places; just have a look around on our site!
Our boat is a not too big and not too small; it has the right size and comfort to enhance personal contact.
Whilst gliding over the calm water, we can appreciate the beautiful nature, birds diving and fish jumping, and the lovely fisher villages with their colorful boats. During our tour we’ll tell you about points of interest of the island and listen to many life stories!
Our aim with the ONDANÇA is not to get as quick as possible to some place or other, but to make the whole trip a wonderful and relaxing experience of all the good things in life!
We have done a lot of sailing in different waters of the world like: Greece, Holland, Switzerland and Brazil.
We are married over 30 years and have 4 children. Two of them live here in Floripa and two in Holland!
If you don’t speak Portuguese we still might be able to make you feel at home in one of the other languages we speak: Portuguese, Dutch, English and German!
In the high season we work daily with ONDANÇA. In low season we do that mainly in the weekends or when chartered. Annemaria dedicates herself more to her Atelier Formana (www.atelierformana.com) and gives lessons in pottery! Dieter works as a family therapist, does counseling for couples and individuals at PANORAMA Desenvolvimento Humano (www.panoramadh.com). Together we give the course “Pictures of life” in which we explore the various phases of life and model them in clay.
With great pleasure we invite you on our boat ONDANÇA! So if you feel like, it just give us a call or send us a mail!
You are very welcome on board!
