This journey from Barreiras, BA to São José da Coroa Grande, PE, is best undertaken by road due to the long distance and limited public transport options. Renting a car offers you flexibility and the opportunity to explore scenic stops along the way, such as the historic city of Salvador and the beautiful coastline of Pernambuco.
