Morro de São Paulo & Boipeba, Brazil

Morro de São Paulo, on Tinharé Island off the coast of Bahia, is reached only by boat or small plane, and its village has no cars. Numbered beaches of reef pools and coconut palms run south from the old fort and lighthouse, while neighbouring Boipeba, a quieter island to the south, keeps fishing villages, mangroves and near-empty sands.
