Porto Seguro Remarkable Features
All paths lead to Porto Seguro, an entry gate and start point for those who wish to learn about the first pages of Brazil's history, practice ecotourism and sports - radical or not -, walk around, eat well, learn ""lambaeróbica"" or just relax. It is an ecological paradise that offers a mixture of history, culture, art and natural beauties.
There are 90km of beaches protected by coral reefs, in addition to bays, rivers and water streams, coconut trees and the exuberant Atlantic Forest. Receptive tourism agencies organize ecological tours that may take from 3 hours to a whole day or even longer. The most frequent tours are to Recife de Fora, Coroa Alta, Trancoso and Caraiva For those who love flying, the local ultralight club provides them with the chance to see, by ultralight or helicopter flying, from a different point-of-view, the setting of the entire Brazilian "Discovery Coast".
The city never sleeps, and works virtually 24 hours a day. During the day, one can go to the beaches or walk through the sea and the woods. And the night life is very exciting. Invariably, the night begins at Passarela do Álcool (Alcohol Aisle), where dozens of tents are put up, selling a wide variety of fruit cocktails and "capetas" - drinks made of fruit juice and vodka. Tent decoration pays special attention to fruit arrangements, which catch the tourists' eye and win customers.
Shops open at peculiar hours in Porto Seguro: many malls and handicraft stores are open until midnight . For those who like sophistication there are restaurants that specialize in French, Japanese, Italian cuisine and so on. For those who want to eat well but more cheaply the restaurants where you weigh your food offer the best options in the city center or along the coast, with a variety of hot dishes and salads, as well as desserts.
At night, stay on the coast for lots of reggae, parties and live music in most of the restaurants and beach stalls. Various larger stalls offer shows with national and international attractions.
