Bateau direct en catamaran depuis/vers Morro de São Paulo

The trip to Morro on the catamaran went ahead as scheduled—taking about 2.5 hours. However, the return trip on the catamaran at 3:00 PM—as originally booked—was cancelled without explanation. Instead, we were put on the "semi-terrestrial" route at 3:00 PM. As the fine print states, the maritime authorities can prohibit the crossing if wave conditions are too rough. Ironically, the catamaran *did* run at 11:30 AM, but for the 3:00 PM slot, we had to take a speedboat first - 10 min, then a bus - 1.45 hours, and finally a public ferry. That last leg was a nightmare: it took an hour to cover just 15 km, surrounded by drunken, rowdy men. It was far from pleasant—and a far cry from the catamaran experience we had been promised! It’s a trip we certainly won’t forget.

The price of the cost per trip and per person turns out to be by far greater than the standards expected for the means of transport: seats are dilapidated and broken, cleanliness is almost non-existent, not to mention the air conditioning which in some spots makes the temperature reach 20 degrees and in others even 28, so the system is dilapidated and absolutely poorly installed!

The service left and arrived on time, both on the way to the nose and back. The trip takes two hours and 15 minutes to two hours and 30 minutes, depending on the sea state.There are conditions to attend in advance, which are informed at the time of taking the ticket, such as it is a journey by open sea. Although the road is shorter, it is not an excursion, it is a journey of almost two and a half hours, so you have to attend that there are people who may suffer dizziness or have a bad time. That said, there are things that can improve, such as the safety of catamarans and something to the Bahian government, the docks, especially that of the sau paul nose, which is not only small, but very insecure, without comfort zones to wait. You have to pay a tourist tax when entering the nose and you have to pay a fee to leave it. The same company offers a road option more than 80 percent of the route and then cross in a few minutes. While it is longer in hours, if you are with children, it may be a good option.

We couldn’t get the direct ferry and they rebooked us in the semi-terrestrial trip. Everything was on time (ish) but the trip is very long. First in a ferry to the closest island, then a bus trip to the other side of the island (this was the hardest and longest part) and then a speedboat to Morro de São Paulo that was fast but already at night. We arrived super tired.

I bought a USD 280 transfer in Catamaran from Salvador; Bahia to Morro. when we presented in the counter there was no plaza for us. Nobody assisted us from Viator and I didn't read the whatsup telling me that it was over saled. NO REFUND YET.. and NO INDEMNIZATION either.

I did not read opinions before taking Catamaran direct to nose via sea, very bad experience, uncomfortable, sound of the horrible engine all the time, all marked moves a lot, it is two and a half hours of only torture, no one warns that it is not recommended with children have a terrible time all of them and adults, if I had known that it was so I do not take it ever, terrible boat service, like everything in Brazil to the lot besides zero safety, I recommend a thousand times better the mixed route you delay a little more but enjoy the trip or sleep in the bus with air conditioning and do not get dizzy, if you go with children this is if or if the option there and back.

We went as a group and did not know that we needed passports and had to pay taxes once we arrived. Keep this in mind when heading to Morro de Sao Paulo.

We travelled very well by catamaran between Salvador and Morro. The sea was rough but we left and arrived on time. We do not suffer from seasickness and enjoyed the trip. Morro, then, is spectacular. There are alternatives to travelling by catamaran using ferries, buses and fast boats. If you prefer the speed of the transfer, the catamaran option is the best.

I visited some beaches in Salvador/Bahia, Morro de São Paulo was the most beautiful. Wonderful beach. The landscape is beautiful, clean sand, warm water.

It's not a problem with the catamaran. Only the experience is not entirely pleasant. Inside it's all very closed, outside it's crowded. The catamaran moves a lot and it's two hours and a little trip. Children cry, 70% of those who travel break down. It's not very nice really. The other option is by semi-terrestrial lasting approximately 4 hours. I highly recommend evaluating options before traveling with children. I saw a lot of parents having a hard time they and the kids in turn.
