Stella Maris beach

Stella Maris Beach stretches along Salvador's northern coast with golden sand and clear water bordered by dense palm groves. The shoreline features multiple access points and different sections for various activities.

The area was farmland until the 1970s when development transformed it into a modern coastal destination. This growth brought it into prominence as a regional attraction.

Local vendors offer traditional Bahian specialties along the shore, and you will hear regional music coming from the restaurant areas.

Multiple access points with parking and restroom facilities make it easy to reach different areas. Regular bus service connects the beach to Salvador's city center.

Strong ocean currents and persistent winds make this a primary location for surfing competitions throughout the year. Many athletes come here specifically for training.
