Bahia’s Hidden Island Paradise

Peaceful, untouched, and full of tropical charm, Ilha de Boipeba is one of Bahia’s best-kept secrets. With its coconut-lined beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a rhythm that flows gently with the tides, Boipeba offers the kind of natural beauty and tranquility that feels like stepping into another world.

Why Visit?

Unlike its more famous neighbors, Boipeba remains authentic and unspoiled. Cars are not allowed on the island, and the pace of life is slow and intentional. You’ll walk along sandy paths, cross rivers by boat, and discover beaches that stretch for miles without another soul in sight.

Beaches like Praia de Moreré, Bainema, and Cueira are postcard-perfect, with calm waters for swimming and snorkeling, natural pools at low tide, and golden sunsets that light up the sky. Take a traditional canoa ride through mangroves, explore coral reefs, or simply sway in a hammock beneath the palm trees.

In the small village of Velha Boipeba, friendly locals, cozy pousadas, and fresh seafood await—especially the island’s signature dish: lagosta grelhada (grilled lobster) served steps from the sea.

The Vibe

Ilha de Boipeba is serene, slow, and deeply soulful. It’s a place to unplug, feel the sand between your toes, and let nature set the pace. Whether you're sipping coconut water on a deserted beach or watching the moon rise over the ocean, Boipeba reminds you of the simple joy of being present. For those seeking beauty without crowds and authenticity without rush, this is paradise found.
