Photo Haroldo Magalhães UNIQUE LOCATION
Located on the south coast of Bahia, in northeast Brazil, the Peninsula of Maraú has beautiful untouched beaches, tropical forest, rivers, waterfalls and preserved nature. The Camamu Bay, with its many islands, is the third major bay in Brazil and is good for sailing. Barra Grande is the main village of the Peninsula and the starting point to discover this paradise.
BARRA GRANDE
Far from the most famous tourist centers, this peaceful village and its splendid beaches fascinate everyone who goes there. Because of the difficult access this place has preserved the typical atmosphere of an old fishermen village...
 		 BEACHES
The longest beaches are located on the ocean side of the Peninsula. With strong waves, good for surfing, they have white sand and coral reefs which form natural swimming pools at low tide. On the other side of the Peninsula, facing the Camamu Bay, beaches are smaller, with calm water.
 		 CAMAMU BAY
The Camamu Bay is Brazil's third biggest bay, after Todos os Santos (Bahia) and Guanabara (Rio de Janeiro). It is a sanctuary of preserved nature and wild life, with beautiful landscapes, mangroves, forests and many islands.
 
MARAÚ
Far from the beaches is the chief town of the County, Maraú, which is located in the middle of the peninsula, on the Camamu Bay. It is a fishermen village with old houses and stone-paved streets.
 		 LODGING
The Peninsula of Maraú offers hotels and many pleasant pousadas, typical Brazilian lodges, located in the town or close to beaches and nature.
