Vila de Abrantes, parhaat rannat

This beach is truly a gem, especially during low tide! The natural reef creates several pools that, combined with the tranquil waters and absence of waves, make it an ideal spot for swimming and snorkeling. While it can get a bit crowded on weekends during the summer months, it's still worth a visit. And if you're looking for a fantastic meal or snack, head to the town center's seafront restaurant, "Corais de Jauá." The food is absolutely delicious, and the owner, Luciano, will make sure your visit is even more enjoyable. Give it a try, and tell him Sam sent you!

In my humble opinion, the beach in Salvador is nothing to write home about. Sure, there are a variety of stalls and trendy bars, but that's about it. The water may be hot, but it's far from crystal clear and the waterfront is nothing special. I had to shell out 10 reais just for an umbrella, and the average price for a beer was 8 reais. Even water costs around 4 reais, making it an expensive outing. Sure, the beach is beautiful, but it's located twenty-six miles away from the center of Salvador, which makes it quite a trek to get there. And while the strip of sand may be extensive, it's also quite deserted in several points, even during high season. The quiet neighborhood next to Stella Maris and Itapuã may seem appealing, but the services offered such as restaurants, markets, and cafeterias are nothing to write home about. The only saving grace is the shop
