About Itacaré:
After the opening of the BA-001, highway which connects Ilhéus and Itacaré,
tourism to this region has become a highlight, now the town has a faster
connection with Ilhéus airport and consequently with the big tourist
markets. This was how Itacaré became a destination for tourists in Brazil
and other countries. A highway between Camamu and Itacaré is already being
built and they plan on having an International Airport between Ilhéus and
Itacaré. The town of Itacaré has a tropical climate, which has a unique
combination of Atlantic Forest "Mata Atlântica", rugged landscape and
ocean, small beaches with an appealing and paradise-like aspect. The river
"Rio de Contas", flows into Itacaré's coast, allowing tourist to have lots
of interesting leisure opportunities, especially water sports and
adventures. The town's cultural heritage is very attractive and its
origins in the indigenous culture (the Pataxós Indians were the first
inhabitants of the place), Afro-Brazilian habits, the cultivation of cocoa
and the hospitality from Bahia. According to the records of Bahiatursa
(Official tourism agency from the state of Bahia), the flow of visitors in
Bahia rose from 3.6 million visitors in 1997 to nearly 4.9 millions in
2004, which represents a 36% increase i 8 year period. Expectations are
that these figures will keep on rising, reaching 8.7 million in 2015. The
first six star hotel in Brazil is going to be ready this year in Itacaré. |
