Workation in Trancoso: the essentials
Trancoso was a fishing village until outsiders began arriving, and international attention from around 2000 turned it into one of Bahia's best-known retreats. Its heart is the Quadrado, a long grassy square on a bluff, lined with small painted houses that now hold restaurants and boutiques, with a white church at the far end. Below lie long beaches, and further south the still quieter village of Caraíva. The crowd comes largely from São Paulo, and the place is packed around New Year. Officially Trancoso is a district of Porto Seguro, whose airport is about 17 km away, and the usual route from there involves a river ferry. Plan on working from your rental and ask about the internet connection before you book.
