The Itacaré region is ideal for travelers who are looking for a beach holiday away from the masses but not necessarily in complete isolation and perfect if you surf or are interested in learning. The unique golden sunlight highlights the best of the region’s topographical charm, its vast beaches and wide-open ocean, backed by lush vegetation and palms.

How We ExploreTime in this part of the country runs slower and days ease in and out of each other while you enjoy time on the beach and the outdoors. Relaxing in idyllic settings and taking things slowly is one way to spend time well here, but there is also plenty to explore if you and interested in unveiling different facets of life in southern Bahia, its history and culture. Visits to cocoa farms, iconic historic cities, boat rides along the rivers and through mangroves, and treks through the forest are a super way to contextualize this unique and enchanting part of the country.
