At the end of the Holy Spirit, almost getting in Bahia, there is a place where life is peaceful amidst giant dunes and forró contagious sound. Itaúnas is a district of the municipality of Conceição da Barra that prides itself on retaining the rustic fishing village of hospitality coupled with a tourist attraction. The village is simple, but provides the necessary infrastructure, with public lighting and water treated and piped throughout its length. There are plenty of hotels in Itaúnas, but there are some hotels in Itaúnas and camping area, plus the option of renting the homes of residents. And if you’re thinking of meeting her in July, know that the accommodations are quite played this season, when it held the National Festival of Forro, attracting thousands of visitors lovers of authentic forró pé-de-serra. But if you want to go in another time, rest assured, the shindig rolls loose the whole year in the village pubs until dawn.
