If you ever make it to Salvador, make sure you hop on a bus southwards to this mellow and youthful heaven somewhere in-between wide stretches of virgin Atlantic rainforest and the picturesque beaches. Or just like us, get a bicycle and start pedaling! It’s only 400km from Salvador! The beaches are out of this world with white sand and clear blue water. They a... Read Full Entry

I am a 36-year old language teacher, currently working in Beijing. I was born in France but China has been my home for many years. I taught French and English in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, for 6 years. I never thought I would stay in China for such a long time but it’s been an amazing experience! Professionally speaking, teaching Chinese students is extremely rewarding. They are so hard-working and eager to learn new things. And then China… there aren’t enough words to describe this intricate (hence fascinating) country. “China is not to be liked or disliked: i... full info

What a place for kids!

What a place for everyone!

We should come back here in the morning

we started walking and kind of got lost in the forest...

but the view was stunning!

WOW!

ITACARE!!!

WOW! We couldn't get enough of this view!

Will it be like this the whole way to Ilheus? Loved Brazil!

What a view! Between Itacare and Ilheus!

We could spend more time around here...

late afternoon, everyone went home but the fishermen

our favorite eatery was closed on Sunday... So we headed to the touristy part of town

Food was more expensive and not as good but... It was still nice and relaxing

this is what Itacare looks like when you drive in (cycle in)

Itacare

up the hill

on our way to Ilheus! BA-001 as usual... up and down the entire way!

Isn't it supposed to be flat by the seashore?!

it's all ups and downs in Bahia!

We could have camped there too...

Pedal harder!! You think you're on holidays?!

Tu crois que t'es en vacances?

Better and best
In your last blog, I thought you'd found the most perfect beach--no, finally it's here in Itacare! Really, jungle, beach, warm water and your dad. It doesn't get any better than that, except maybe if Becky were there too. Congratulations on finding a bit of perfection!

amazing beaches and ..Jeremy's father
because he can keep up Jeremy ! Another interesting thing i read first time about - showering with the sand.. i heard of soaping up and washing with sea water possible, but sand, must be something desert people do.. Fantastic beaches, really worth visiting, not by bike for me! But from pics i didnt see possibility for snorkeling in Itacare.

thank you!
Waves might be too strong to snorkel... but I'm really not sure. I spend more time on the beach than in the water. Yes, my Dad is an animal who likes to push his limits physically.
