Introducing Morro de São Paulo
For some, the picturesque holiday village of Morro de São Paulo has exceeded acceptable limits of touristiness. For others, it is Bahia’s best beach town. All agree it is charming. Remotely perched at the northern tip of the Ilha de Tinharé, Morro’s appeal stems from its relaxed pace (no cars on the island) and unique geography: three jungle-topped hills on a point at the meeting of the mangrove-lined Canal de Taperoá and a clear, shallow Atlantic. Wheelbarrows help lug cargo (and luggage) along sandy lanes, past pousadas, restaurants and boutiques. During the high season the village booms, and there are parties on the beaches every night.
