Software companies are as much a part of Florianópolis as surfboards, and information technology sits alongside tourism at the top of the local economy. Most of the capital of Santa Catarina lies on an island with around 60 beaches and the Lagoa da Conceição at its heart, and about 537,000 people live across the island and a slice of mainland. Coworking spaces are easy to find, and the south of the island keeps its old Azorean fishing villages, now known for oysters. Summer brings heavy traffic on the island's few main roads. Hercílio Luz International Airport is about 9 km from the centre.
