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.
Access follows the Arraial d’Ajuda–Trancoso–Caraíva route and may involve a ferry, highways and sections of local road. Confirm route conditions and your return arrangements on the day.
Walk along the sand, admire the scenery, swim when conditions are safe and observe the changes in color and terrain caused by the tide. Allow time to notice the details presented in the attraction description and take photographs responsibly.
Check the tide table, follow the signs and avoid entering the sea during strong waves or currents, or when local officials advise against it.
