The far south of Bahia offers preserved landscapes, a tranquil pace and an authentic experience far from the crowds. For those seeking a vacation rental in nature, this region is one of the last refuges on the Brazilian coast.
A coastline still preserved
While destinations like Porto Seguro and Trancoso attract millions of visitors per year, the far south of Bahia maintains practically untouched beaches. The stretch from Prado to Cumuruxatiba concentrates:
- Over 80 km of beaches with colorful cliffs
- Two national parks (Monte Pascoal and Descobrimento)
- The Abrolhos Archipelago, a marine sanctuary
- Crystal-clear rivers flowing into the sea
The pace of Prado
Unlike bustling tourist cities, Prado maintains a tranquil pace of life. Here, time passes slowly and days are filled with:
- Cliff walks at sunrise
- Sea bathing on nearly deserted beaches
- Long lunches with fresh fish
- Afternoons at the pool or in a hammock
This pace combines perfectly with a holiday apartment, where you can create your own routine without rushing.
Wildlife of the Whale Coast
The region's biodiversity is impressive:
- Humpback whales (July to November): guaranteed sightings
- Sea turtles: nest on Prado's beaches
- Birds: over 200 species catalogued in the region
- Coral reefs: the oldest in the South Atlantic, at Abrolhos
Nature experiences for every profile
- Adventurers: trails at Monte Pascoal, diving in Abrolhos
- Contemplatives: cliff viewpoints, sunset on the beach
- Families: river swimming, natural pools in Corumbau
- Couples: deserted beaches, sunset boat rides
Recanto de Férias: nature with comfort
Recanto de Férias offers the perfect balance: 150 m² vacation rental apartments in a condominium surrounded by native vegetation, steps from the beach. Nature and comfort, together.
