If you’re dreaming of a place where time slows down, nature remains untouched, and life feels beautifully simple, the Maraú Peninsula might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Located in Bahia, Brazil, this stunning stretch of land between the Atlantic Ocean and the bay is still one of the country’s best-kept secrets. Far from mass tourism, Maraú offers a rare blend of wild beaches, warm waters, lush tropical landscapes, and an authentic, grounded way of life.

Untouched Beaches & That Perfect Swim

The peninsula unfolds into long, empty beaches, framed by coconut trees and cliffs. It’s common to walk for kilometers without seeing anyone — a rare luxury in today’s world. 

One of Maraú’s greatest highlights is its crystal-clear natural pools as, at low tide, the ocean reveals stunning lagoons filled with colorful fish, creating perfect conditions for snorkeling, floating, and swimming in calm, transparent waters.

  • Stand-up paddleboarding & kayaking near the bay and mangroves
  • Boat trips through rivers, mangroves, and along the coastline Horse riding on the beach at sunrise or sunset
  • Cycling along the beach, perfect at low tide when the sand is firm
  • Long beach walks and exploration of hidden corners of the peninsula

Wellness, Slow Living & Reconnection

Many visitors come to Maraú to rest, reset, and reconnect — with nature, with others, and with themselves.
