Um pouco de história
The terminal was built as part of Salvador's waterfront revitalization efforts to improve tourist infrastructure. It opened in the early 2000s, replacing an older, less organized boat departure area. The site has long been a focal point for maritime trade and travel, given Salvador's historic role as a colonial port.
