Ocean side of Barra - Salvador da Bahia

Ocean side of Barra

by acemj

I stayed in Barra, which is a short distance south of the historic center of Pelourinho. If you've ever seen tourist photos of Salvador, they will often use the overhead view of the Farol da Barra, which is where the land forms a right angle with the west-facing shoreline edging up to the Bay of All Saints and the ocean laps against the south-facing shore.

This beach community is laid back and restaurants and hotels are plentiful.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
