-- see review of Breezes Costa do Sauipe resort

Bahia Adventure runs a number of "eco-adventures" in the area, booked through resorts or through their office in Vila Nova.
A popular outing is "quadriciclo", aka all-terrain vehicles. See review. Tip: novices should spend a few minutes practicing; the trip start is steep.
We also sampled the quiet, slow pace of a canoe ride on the Sauipe river.

Other outings include rafting, jeep tour through rainforest, sea turtles at night-- see Bahia Adventure.

We also hired a driver to visit Projeto Tamar, a sea-turtle conservation project.

Projeto Tamar has several pools with real turtles; but some visitors prefer the ones that can't get away.
Project Tamar is located on a popular beach, at Praia do Forte. Praia do Forte itself is a place of many shops --great prices-- and restaurants, and is reportedly very lively after dark. (Kids always welcome.)
