Salvador de Bahia, Praia do forte & C. Saipe - Salvador - TravBuddy

Half week hollidays:

I was sleeping on Costa do Sauipe Suites, I went one day at Salvador and an other to praia do Forte.

Costa do Sauipe Ressort:
It's Ok, the suites are incredible big an confortable, the bathroom also, this hotel is for a family with children, quiet, the pool is ok, nobody is on the beach.
For a little fun go to Vilanova da praia (in the midle of the ressort)or to the pool of costa do sauipe conventions, much young people, activities and a bar inside the pool.

Praia do forte:
I can´t book for the Eco-ressort :(
The town is ok, a lot of gift-shops, with an small church close to the beach, visit the Tamar Project (turtles) it's nice. For lunch you can go to one of those reastaurants on the beach, tipycal for tourists.

Salvador:
What to say about the "Pelourinho"...great!
I was in an old Jail, now a market called "Mercado modelo" very close to the pelourinho elevator, there you can buy a lot of gifts cheaper than the pelou...
