"I went from Salvador to Morro and back. They responded quickly via WhatsApp before the trip and were very friendly and helpful on board. In Morro, I couldn't pay by card, but they allowed me to settle the payment when I arrived at Salvador. I highly recommend it."Read on Google

"We bought the catamaran Salvador–Morro de São Paulo, but it was very windy and we needed to do the combined sea-and-road transfer. The organization was impeccable and punctual. Highlight for Vitor Silva, on the second boat, who is lovely!"Read on Google

"On the way there and back, the crew were very helpful. The catamaran is small, but comfortable. On the way back from Morro to Salvador, I want to highlight the care taken with the passengers who were feeling unwell due to the rough seas. Congratulations!"Read on Google

"The catamaran was punctual on the way there and back. The crew is helpful with those who are unwell and careful with their luggage. The boat is clean and reasonably comfortable. On the downside, water entered through one of the small windows, due to a sealing problem."Read on Google

A crossing. Many stories.
About us
The city is left behind. The journey starts here.
The Ilha Bela Transporte Marítimo connects Salvador to Morro de São Paulo in a crossing that is already part of the history of many trips.
We are a family company, at sea since 1998. People who know the way and take care of each journey.
You leave Terminal Turístico Náutico da Bahia, in Comércio, in front of Mercado Modelo. The destination is one of the most beautiful encounters between Bahia and the sea.
Before you go, check the timetables, choose your ticket and check the boarding instructions. The journey takes, on average, between 2h and 2h30.
Rest, beaches and new paths come later. Your experience starts on board.
