Since it was founded 25 years ago, Club Santana has developed strong ties with the local community.
In 2010, Terra Crioula, a not-for-profit organization, was set up to promote local development and to improve the living conditions of the local community and it is directly linked to the development of the town of Santana and the fishermen’s village.
Club Santana Beach & Resort also works closely with NGO MARAPA in the implementation of the Tatô Programme for the protection of sea turtles on the Messias Alves beach. The programme consists of monitoring of nesting female sea turtles between September and April, as well as the incubation period, and informing the public about the importance of the conservation of these threatened species.
Such as the cocoa plantations and artisan shops; we also help to organise some original experiences such as fishing at sunrise in a small fisherman’s pirogue. In order to promote the local economy and minimize food imports, Club Santana gets its fruit and vegetables from local markets and most of our fish is bought daily from Club Santana’s beach fishermen.
