Tour to Morro de São Paulo
Reaching to the Tinharé Island, where the Morro de São Paulo is located, one of the most important touristic points in Bahia, visitors will find more than 25 miles of beautiful beaches, surrounded by tropical forests, with clear waters, coral reefs and a multicor fauna, great to swim and dive.
In 1531 a guy called Martim Afonso de Souza arrived at this place and decided that it would be the Tynharéa Island, but as time went by, people changed the name to TinharéIsland. The owner of the captaincy where the island is located, a guy called Jorge de Figuereido Corrêa, told Francisco Romero that the place belonged to him, and that he wanted to see that place colonized before someone get to it, wanting to dominate the region.
In that time there were some battles between the local inhabitants and French and Dutch. Oh, the pirates and corsairs also tried to enjoy the beach there, but they were all kicked away. The Tupiniquins and Aymorés Indian, also didn't like the invasions, and they attacked the invaders that lived in the continent, so the islands got quickly full of people.
