Praia dos Milionários: Private Beach Club Day with Water Sports

Settle into the golden sands of Ilhéus' most glamorous beach, Praia dos Milionários — 'Millionaires' Beach' — with a private transfer and reserved beach club access. Crystal-clear warm Atlantic waters, fresh seafood, and the Bahian sun at its most radiant.

What to expect

A private air-conditioned vehicle whisks you the short distance from port to this legendary stretch of pale sand, where reserved parasols and loungers await at a premium barraca (beach club). Ice-cold coconuts are served immediately upon arrival. The water is calm and warm — ideal for a long, leisurely swim. Local vendors offer freshly grilled fish, moqueca, and acarajé directly to your lounger. For the more adventurous, jet-ski and kayak hire are available directly on the beach.

Good to know

Beach is 10–15 minutes from port by car. Allow at least 4 hours to enjoy fully. Confirm all-aboard time carefully — arrange a firm pick-up time with your driver. Carry BRL cash for on-beach food and drinks. Sunscreen (reef-safe) and a cover-up are essential.
