Day 5
Salvador -> Porto Seguro – Bahia
Our guide will call for you at the hotel
for your 30 minute flight to Porto
Seguro, which litteraly means ‘safe
haven’. Porto Seguro is still in the state
of Bahia, around 800 km down south on
the ‘Costa do Descobrimento’ or
discovery coast. It is said that the
portuguese made their landfall here
1500, but in fact its some 60 km further
to the south; in Cumuruxatiba, on the
beach of Barra do Cai, that they set foot
ashore.
Today it doesn't really matter, since this
region is one of the most spectacular of
the Brazilian coast. Porto Seguro used
to be a quiet little village, but little of
this is noticable today. Its a favorite
holiday spot for the Brazilians and its
youth invade the place by the thousands
during the Brazilian holidays.
Upon your arrival, our private bus will
take for the 15 minute ride to the Monte
Pascoal hotel, right in front of the
beach. So, have a quick shower, put on
your bathing trunks and enjoy.
