Trancoso is a mix of relaxed, beautiful beaches and genuine village life all mixing effortlessly alongside each other – this is what makes it one of our favourite beach destinations in Brazil.

It’s no wonder this has become one of the destinations for the Brazilian glitterati. As a result there are a number of excellent restaurants and boutique shops to explore set around the ‘quadrado’ (village square) while the coast has miles and miles of unspoilt beaches to explore.

We can help you to arrange tours, rent 4x4s to go exploring and many other activities to make the most of this most beautiful and charming spot in Bahia.
