Day 1
At the Porto Seguro airport you will be met by a private driver and taken in an air-conditioned vehicle to the Pousada Bahia Bonito Club in Trancoso, where you will check in. We suggest lunch at your hotel – try the delicious seafood. The afternoon is yours to relax and enjoy.
Day 2
After breakfast today you will be taken on a full day boat tour to visit the beaches of Espelho and Curuipe. The tour sets off from the beautiful beach of Pitinga, from where you will travel south in a comfortable schooner, along the south Bahian coast with marvelous views of all the beaches in the region – Taipe,Rio da Barra, Nativos, Coqueiros, the nudist beach, Setiquara and many more, until you reach the beaches of Curuipe and Espelho. Here you will disembark and have the afternoon to relax on these lovely deserted beaches, under the shade of a palm tree, or in the warm crystal blue waters. Lunch is optional and you can request a barbecue in the boat, if desired. On the way back to Pitinga you will see a gorgeous sunset over the ocean and if you are lucky enough to be travelling on the day of a new moon, you will see the bright red new moon rising over the horizon. (The duration of the tour is approximately 7 hours and includes water and soda.)
Day 3
Today you will visit the most rustic village in the region – Caraiva. Start off by trekking through lush, green Atlantic rain forest for 2 hours until you reach a tiny little village, forgotten by time, with no electricity nor telephones and no motorized vehicles. Here you will have to cross the Caraiva River in a dugout wooden canoe, exactly like the original native Indians in this region would have done centuries ago. On the other side of the river a boat will be waiting to transport down the river on a photographic safari to a farmhouse, where horses will be waiting for you. Your horse ride through marshes will take you to Monte Pascoal, which is where the Pataxo Indians live. You will see how they live, get to know a bit about their culture and see their artisan wares. Continuing along Caraiva’s stunning beaches until the village center, where you will have the option to relax on the beach, swim, sunbathe and have lunch. (The duration of the tour is approximately 8 hours and includes water and soda.)
Day 4
After breakfast and checking out of the Pousada Bahia Bonito Club you will be taken to the Porto Seguro airport. We are certain that you will have enjoyed your trip and we look forward to seeing you again in Brazil.
