The 2016 Copa Libertadores de Beach Soccer was the first edition of the Copa Libertadores de Beach Soccer (known natively in Spanish as the Copa Libertadores de Futbol Playa), an annual continental beach soccer club tournament contested between the champions of the domestic leagues of South American nations who are members of CONMEBOL.
Organised by CONMEBOL and Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW), the competition took place in Santos, Brazil, hosted on the Praia do Gonzaga. Originally organised to take place from 6 to 11 December 2016, the event was postponed at the request of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) in response to the Chapecoense plane disaster, and eventually took place in January 2017, despite being the 2016 edition of the event.http://conmebol.com/es/la-copa-libertadores-de-futbol-playa-se-disputara-en-enero-de-2017 La Copa Libertadores de Fútbol Playa se disputará en enero de 2017 CONMEBOL 1 December 2016 12 November 2017 Spanish

The winners and runners-up from each group advanced to the knockout stage, in which the teams then competed in single-elimination matches, beginning with the semi-finals and ending with the final.
