Salvador Suburb impresses with its natural beauties
Located in the Railroad Suburb of Salvador, São Tomé de Paripe Beach impresses by its beauty. The water is calm and warm, coming from All Saints Bay, and the place is very cozy, with organized street vendors and parking space along the seafront. The beach is surrounded by bars and restaurants and there are lots of people on weekends, mainly locals.
São Tomé do Paripe is located at the southern end of Salvador coast. The calm and shallow sea is ideal for those who can’t swim and for children and also for water sports, such as windsurfing, water skiing and kayaking. There is a small pier from where boats leave daily for Ilha dos Frades and Ilha de Maré, within All Saints Bay.
Like São Tomé de Paripe, Tubarão Beach, leaving from Salvador Monastery, is also part of the Suburb of Salvador seaboard. The seafront was completely renovated by Salvador’s City Hall in 2014. The beach is near Aratu Naval Base, where Inema is located, nicknamed “The Presidents’ Beach”, as it has become some of Brazil’s governors destination. Inema is the most famous area nationally; it is in the Navy’s restricted access land. The way to get to Tubarão is the same one used for São Tomé de Paripe.
