A day trip in Praia do Forte, you begin with the thrilling 2-hours experience driving a quad in the Sapiranga reserve. You will discover a unique natural environment different from the typical beach of the Brazilian coast. Created in 1999, the reserve aims to protect the fauna and flora of the region. The guide will take you along the path of the reserve while passing by indigenous communities to finally stop at the waterfalls of the Pojuca river to swim and rest. Then you will come back the same way.
After this great experience, you have free time for lunch, enjoying local dishes by the seaside or at a place of your choice. In the afternoon, the visit to the Tamar Project reveals the fascinating world of sea turtles and their significance in marine conservation. The "Tamar" project was created in 1980 and is today internationally recognized as one of the most successful marine conservation experiences. It is possible to observe several species of endangered turtles, learn about their history, discover the dangers that threaten them and take action to protect them. The center also has several aquariums as well as a few exhibition and leisure rooms. In a hatchery, we discover the eggs of different kinds of turtles that hatch during the evening. The biodiversity, natural beauty, historical and cultural richness of this region helped to make it one of Brazil's busiest visitor centers with community members, students, researchers, and tourists from around the world. As the sun sets, you explore charming local shops and savor a spectacular beach sunset, concluding the day with beauty and serenity. Return to the hotels.
