About this place
The Tôa Tôa Leisure Complex is one of the busiest beach venues on the North Shore. Lamba-aerobics shows, with dancers performing on a stage overlooking the sea, invite the most enthusiastic visitors to embrace the festive spirit for which southern Bahia is famous. There are also more adventurous options, such as helicopter rides, parasailing and banana boat rides. The venue has daytime and nighttime programming. This place is part of Rede Bem Bahia’s Regional Guide and helps visitors understand the natural, historical, cultural and scenic diversity of the Costa do Descobrimento. The experience changes according to the time of day, tide, weather, calendar and means of access. Plan your visit with travel, length of stay and current rules in mind, and confirm operational information before leaving.
