The municipality of Imaruí (11,606 inhabitants in 2010; 54,224 ha) is located 
110 km south of Florianópolis.
Imaruí was, reportedly, first settled 
around 1800 by fishers coming from Laguna. The parish of São João Batista do 
Imaruí was established in 1833, to be elevated subsequently a district depending 
of Laguna. Among the early colonists was gaúcho João Vieira da Rocha, one of the 
leaders of the Ragamuffin Revolution in Laguna, who moved afterwards to Imaruí 
with his two sons.
The municipality of Imaruí was established on 27 August 
1890.
