a blessing for your eyes... And the enchantments didn't end, the best are coming : Gamboa do

A piece of History The portuguese explorer Martim Afonso de Souza
was the first foreigner to arrive officially at Tinhare Island, in 1531. For a long time,
Morro de Sao Paulo bay on Bahia coast was a free pirates and corsaires zone, specially
frenchmen and dutchmen. They found here an easy entrance to Todos os Santos Bay. For that
reason, in the next century, it was necessary begin to built a serie of forts.
Morro de Sao Paulo is a touristic place, with crystalline water, coral of reef and the green Atlantic
Florest. Native people, descendent from Aimores and Tupiniquins tribes, are extremelly friendly
and so glad to receive the visitors.
