Brazil covers almost half of the South American continent and it is
bordered to the north, west and south by every country in South America,
except Chile and Ecuador. To the east is the Atlantic Ocean.
Our exotic village of Itaparica is set on the island of Itaparica itself
which is located in the State of Bahia in the north eastern region of the
country.
Our village basks between a magnificent beach on one side and an
artificial lake on the other, in its own tropical island paradise of lush
vegetation and palm trees.
Here you can enjoy a fun-loving atmosphere and meet a cosmopolitan crowd
of South Americans.
A multitude of sports are on the agenda and you might like to try your
hand (or foot) at some of the particularly original landsports, including
Argentinian paddle (a mixture of squash and tennis), flying the trapeze at
the Circus School and of course the football is a must.
