Where? I here you ask... half way between Salvador and Recife and a perfect place to break up the journey. I got the feeling that they don't see so many tourists here, they were all pretty curious when my motorcycle rocked into town.
Ride to Neopolis and take one of the frequent ferries across the Rio San Fransisco (R4 for a motorcycle). I got the ferry at 5pm and I would guess that they run every hour.
I love super cheap accommodation but this one is basic.
Imperial Pousada,

I asked for the cheapest room and got a single room with private bathroom (cold water) and fan for R20. I believe they have better rooms here with a/c, hot water and river views. They let you park your motorcycle inside the hotel over night.
To get to it ride straight off the ferry and look across the street to your left. Imperial Pousada is right in front of you.
