Travelling to Brazil: Canavieiras - BA


Canavieiras is an ecological space located along the Cacao Coast, in the south of the state of Bahia. It is comprised of seven marine islands. Specialized publications point to Canavieiras as being the largest natural fishing hole for snook – a noble fish – in Brazil. The city is bathed by the Pardo River. It has wide streets and historical site from the beginning of the century built in pleasant and colorful architecture. The island of Atalaia, located in front of the city, has 14 km of continuous beach, coconut trees and mangrove areas that are home to herons, parrots, parakeets and swallows, maintaining the food chain cycle of several marine and fluvial species. Ever present nature provides tourist and ecological activity, permitting long bicycle rides through wild trails, untouched beaches and much swimming in rivers and the sea.
