Costa do Sauipe is a mega enterprise in one of the most beautiful landscapes of the northern coast of Bahia. The beauty of this region starts in the extremely beautiful Linha Verde (Green Line), the Oceanside road that connects the states of Bahia and Sergipe, and adds a unique beauty to the region, in a completely preserved environment.
The complex was constructed according to a landscape project, which aimed to integrate it to the natural local environment. The project included the original local vegetation, such as coconut palm trees, mangroves, sandbanks, dunes, rivers, and lakes, besides stretches of Mata Atlântica.
