Coconut trees by the sea, pools that form at low tide and white sand are the perfect combination. Be sure to walk to the end of the beach enjoying the scenery and taking pictures!
Natural pools cannot be missing from your list of things to do in Boipeba.
The region is well known for the abundance of seafood, such as octopus and lobster, due to the corals. It is possible to capture them with just your hands! The tip is to have lunch at Restaurante do Mar, where they serve lobster in butter with pineapple. Very fresh and fleshy, delicious!
Morere is the second most populated village in Boipeba. It is there that people who seek nature and tranquility stay.
You will find some sandy streets, with small markets, simple houses and super cozy inns. A highlight for the Pousada A Mangueira, which is more refined and almost on the beach, a great option for staying in Morere.
To get to the natural pools of Castelhanos you need to go by boat, as they are far from the sand. They only form at low tide – so you need to keep an eye on the tide table (usually hotels advise you what time of low tide will be) to be able to take advantage of them.
In 1530 a Spanish ship crashed into the corals of Praia de Castelhanos and was shipwrecked. Even today, on days when the tide is calm and low, it is possible to see what's left of the ship. Although much of it has already been "taken" by the corals, our sailor said that you can see the anchor and some other parts inside the boat.
An incredible tip of what to do in Boipeba is to watch the sunset. I don't know about you, but I always go right away asking people where the best place is. In Boipeba, the sun rises over the sea and sets over the back of the island, towards the mountains.

A tip from bitbook.net is to take the walk that goes from Praia de Moreré to Velha Boipeba. This is a great idea of what to do in Boipeba on your own, without the need for tours or guides! Of course don't forget to use BITBOOK.NET and get the best prices and also a great cashback! Following the walk from Praia de Morere to Velha Boipeba, is Praia da Cueira. Beautiful with its many coconut trees by the sea and good waves for surfing. This beach is a must for surfers!
The main attraction on the beach is Guido’s lobster, which became super famous all over the island. The lobsters are huge and juicy – it's worth trying, even though it's a super tourist spot where all the boat trips stop.
Between Praia de Morere and Praia da Cueira is the Ouritibe River. You can only cross it at low tide and the tip is to take the opportunity to spend a few hours there swimming in the river, with its colder and more refreshing waters!
Also noteworthy is the shopping center in Boipeba. The mall is facing the river, close to the center of Boipeba. There are some shops there (many are still empty) like an Italian ice cream parlor which is very tasty!
For dinner, go to the Flor da Lua restaurant. It is more refined and has tempting options on the menu.
What to pack for this trip?
1. Slippers – you will only need these shoes for the entire trip!
2. Clothing with UV protection for hiking or, if you don't have it, choose very light clothes that absorb heat;
3. Sunglasses, cap or hat for walks on beaches and trails;
4. Sunscreen (sun from Bahia! You can't be too careful);
5. Repellent;
6. Raincoat (for any unforeseen);
7. Camelback or water bottle;
8. Lantern (to walk in villages at night);
9. Diving mask (you can also rent it there, but if you want to save money, here's the tip)
10. Cash (some places accept cards, but it's good to have a good amount in cash to pay for expenses such as quad taxis, restaurants that don't accept cards, tours, etc.).
Tip: as the journey is long, making several changes of means of transport, I suggest taking the least amount of luggage possible.
