Anchieta

Bus station: Avenida Carlos Lindenberg

Anchieta lies on the Atlantic coast in the south of Espírito Santo state, 102km/63mi south of Vitória. The Spanish Jesuit José de Anchieta died in 1597 in the village of Reritiba, now Anchieta. The Festa de Anchieta is celebrated annually on June 9th.

There are good beaches at Doce (to the north), Gorda (6km/4mi south) and the central Praia do Monte Aghá, with a 300m/1000ft high hill which from time immemorial has been a landmark for seafarers and is now popular with rock-climbers.
