Salvador and the Bahia Coast: Places to Explore

Morro de São Paulo

On Ilha de Tinharé, just south of Itaparica, Morro de São Paulo is the most popular place on the island, most of which is covered with thick Atlantic Forest protected by a state park. Private cars are not allowed here; you can walk to the beaches, take tractor-pulled trolleys, or hire a small boat to "beach-hop" about the island.
