Knowing the history of the place: Morro de São Paulo was one of the first regions to receive Portuguese navigators in the 16th century. Because of this, there are numerous historic buildings such as forts, churches and mansions.

The island was conquered in 1531 by the Portuguese Martin Afonso de Souza and still has several historical monuments from Colonial Brazil, a period in which Morro de São Paulo had buildings to protect Salvador and Itaparica Island from invasions. Take advantage of the days on the island to learn a little more about this history.

The center of the village of Morro de São Paulo makes for a great tour. Try the late afternoon to walk through the downtown streets and get to know some of the sights of Morro de São Paulo. A walk through the center of the village can start at the Tapirandú Fortress, also known as Forte de Morro de São Paulo, a beautiful walled area that began to be built around 1630 and which still guards the island today. Keep an eye out for Praia do Forte, located at the end of the tour and hide it from most tourists.

Get ready to walk:
There are no cars, motorcycles or buses on the island. You will have to walk, and quite a bit. As it is a hill, there are several stairs, mainly in the village, where the "center" of the region is located. Right away, after disembarking at the entrance to the city, you will be faced with a very steep climb. For around R$10($3 U.S dollars) it is possible to pay for the transport of luggage in a wheelbarrow "piloted" by the local people. It is worth it. At the same time of disembarkation, tourists are charged a fee of R$ 16 ($4 U.S dollars), which, according to the city hall, is intended for environmental preservation.
