Taipus de Fora

Taipus de Fora, Maraú Peninsula, Bahia

At the other side of the Peninsula do Maraú, there´s the Taipus de Fora beach, facing the Atlantic Ocean.

With stronger waves and a bit colder water, this open-sea beach attracts young people, some surfers and hosts some expensive inns.

Seawater temperature in Bahia is perfect: it is not cold, nor hot, making it very pleasant both for refreshing in hot days and to do not feel cold.   

Going to Taipus de Fora requires taking a jeep service, which departs about half an hour from Barra Grande beach, where most of the inns, b&b´s, hostels and hotels are. This small trip takes about 20 minutes away over the sand roads that cross the Peninsula.

The place to stay stay there is the Buda bar, with a big golden Buda statue wellcoming visitors. In the middle of this rustic place, the bar has a nice infraestructure, with comfortable sofas, beds, chairs and tables.

The food, as in every part of the Peninsula, is wonderful; main dishes are shrimps, fish, squid and octoptus, as well all sorts of sea food. But brazillian northeast and bahiana cuisine is allways present, with a variety of snacks and drinks.

Beware jeeps may not return after sunset to Barra Grande, as the service is not provided by night. But a day at Taipus de Fora is simply magic.
