Historic port town with well-preserved colonial buildings, colourful facades, cobbled streets and a working harbour — ideal for street, architectural and waterscape shots. Best at golden hour and blue hour from the waterfront (Rua Babitonga) and nearby viewpoints. Weekday mornings are quieter; expect cobbles and narrow lanes, easy on-foot access, paid parking around the centro. Local festivals and fishing boats add cultural moments; respectful behaviour near churches and homes is recommended.
