Circuits, hotels, excursions and transfers in Praia do Forte.
Praia do Forte is a coastal village on the Linha Verde, north of Salvador, on the coast of Bahia. It is known for the Projeto Tamar, dedicated to the protection of sea turtles, for the Garcia d'Ávila castle and for its calm-water natural pools, around a central pedestrian street with shops and restaurants.
In a programme it works as a beach extension of Salvador, designed for those seeking rest and nature after the city, at an unhurried pace and suitable for families.
Praia do Forte has a tropical climate and warm sea throughout the year. The rainiest months are usually April to June, while from September to March sunny days predominate and it is the busiest season. Sea turtles nest and hatch from roughly September to March, so those months are the most interesting for a visit to the Projeto Tamar.
Praia do Forte welcomes medium-sized groups and corporate retreats with a relaxed atmosphere well, although it is not a venue for large congresses. Its appeal lies in combining meetings and free time by the sea; the accommodation offer consists of pousadas and beach resorts, and the capacity of each should be checked. For large-scale events Salvador is more suitable.
Credible incentive experiences include a guided visit to the Projeto Tamar, snorkelling trips in the natural pools, excursions to the Sapiranga reserve, horse-riding or cycling along the beach and an open-air dinner in the village. They are nature and relaxation rewards, suited to groups seeking a gentle pace.
It is reached by road from Salvador, along the Linha Verde, on a journey of approximately one hour; Salvador airport (SSA) is the usual gateway. There is no commercial airport in the village, so transfers are arranged overland. Within Praia do Forte the centre is pedestrian and can be explored on foot.
Plan 2 or 3 nights as a beach extension after Salvador. Works well for families and couples, and for European and Latin American clients seeking rest on the Bahian coast after a cultural tour. Book in advance for the summer holidays and the year-end period.
