From the airport to the city center you have three options, taking a taxi is the fastest but also the most expensive. To save money take the executivo bus to Praca de Se or a local bus. Theme: Airplane

In other words, don't do what I did! Skip the Comtas booth at the airport and just walk out front and grab a cab. Ask the driver how much it will be and if it's more than 30 reais, ask him if he'll take you for 30. I bet he will. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

No siempre hay puertos en las islas, y no siempre las embarcaciones se pueden aproximar a la costa, así que ponte tu bolso sobre la cabeza, y comienza a caminar por el agua! Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat

 Good Security in Pelourinho by coconutwireless
The Executivo Bus was about R$2.70. it is a mini bus and can be caught right outside the airport .
The end-of-the-line for the executivo is Praca da Se, at the entrance to Pelourinho, the old colonial city center. The fare for the executivo bus is either be collected along the way by a fare-collector, or collected by the bus-driver when you get off. Best to have small change.
tip: there is a place for luggage in the back underneath the bus. You might have to let the driver know yu are aware of this or else you get on with your luggage and have to try and lift it over the turnstile (like they use in the metros) and make a complete idiot of yourself in the process (like we did). If you know where you are staying you can take a short taxi ride from the Praca de Se where the bus lets you off and you will save yourself a bundle of money. We arrived at dark and found this worked well.
You can reverse the trip but leave yourself a good hour when going to the airport. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

If you plan to go to the island of Itaparica, i recommend to go to Mar Grande. As i see it this island is overexposed, and less than interresting! Many talk about those beautiful beaches and the fantastic waters, but i think they are quite muddy, and the water is unclear.
The restaurants are expensive, and all places but Mar Grande seem desserted. Even the main town is desserted....Spookey!!!
Anyway i recommend the trip back and forth, with the little boat, that you catch from the habour behind Mercado Modelo Down Town. The ticket cost around 4-5 R$ each way, and i would take the tour just to enjoy the views. You can buy drinks onboard, and it is often a boat full of happyholliday guests.
