CORUMBAU HOLIDAYS

Corumbau means “distant place” in the Pataxo native language and owes its name to the wide sandy point that stretches out into the sea from the peninsula.  This sums up Corumbau.  It is a remote stretch of coastline in Bahia, difficult to get to, but worth it once you arrive as the endless pristine beach is worth the journey unto itself.

The beach at Corumbau is brilliant white and is lined with crystal clear waters, 9 miles long with vast groves of nut palm trees which act as a border. There is even a long coral reef formation that stretches out approximately 6 miles into the sea and disappears as the tide rises. This is the perfect place to get away from it all as there are only two or three small hotels here, so privacy is guaranteed.

The reservation of the Patoxes is on the other side of the Corumbau River, where you can visit and get an insight into their culture and traditions. The seafood is always fresh and comes straight from the fishing boats of the inhabitants of the local village thus supporting sustainable tourism.
