Introduction

Salvador has a long Atlantic coastline; beaches are a big part of this tropical city's life. Inside the bay, Porto da Barra is calm and clear—one of the city's most popular beaches and a famous sunset spot; evenings gather at the Barra Lighthouse to watch the sun sink into the sea. Along the coast are Amaralina, Pituba and others with varied character—some good for surfing, some with tidal pools. The warm tropical climate makes water activities pleasant almost year-round. Sunbathing on palm-shadowed sand, swimming, and tasting street Bahian snacks is a pleasant way to feel Salvador's relaxed seaside.
