Description
Do you want to feel like a real local and enjoy a day off on one of the best beaches of Bahia? Come with us and drive along the most beautiful beaches of Bahia, on the Coconut Coast. We'll have splendid views on the dunes, lagoons, and the ocean itself, sovereign green and blue. Our final destination is Praia do Forte, a former fisherman village and, now, the most important touristic destination of the region.
Here you can visit the TAMAR Project that protects the five species of sea turtles that reproduce here along the coast, and see these huge and ancient reptiles just in front of you. Another possibility is to visit the old and mysterious Fort of Garcia D'Ávila, build on top of a hill with a fantastic panoramic view. You can try some delicious local dishes in one of the many cozy restaurants. Finally, enjoy the gorgeous tropical sunny beach where you can get into the real Bahian mood having a caipirinha, eat grilled cheese, have a swim and a tan and relax as a real Brazilian.
