Salvador
de Bahia
Salvador, the first
capital of Brazil, is one of the main tourist points of the
Northeast, receiving different regattas and rallies every year.
The cultural and colourful African influence contributes to
a rather laid-back and easy going way of life.
The city is situated at the entrance of the Bay of All the Saints,
the largest in Brazil, where the sea is calm and thanks to the
trade winds, the wind unchanging.
Salvador is the compulsory starting point for Morro de São
Paulo, 30 miles away, and for the Bay of Camamu, 60 miles in
the South.
You have the choice of sailing in the bay and upriver protected
from the open Atlantic, or venture down to Morro de Sâo
Paulo where again you will find very well protected anchorages
and paradise like sandy beaches.

the historic centre of the city, 40 minutes from the international
