As a small beach-side town, there are few places in Bahia that cannot be reached in under 15 minutes on foot. The hospital is an exception, but may be reached by cab or the local bus.
As an "eco-friendly city," Bahia has numerous bicycle taxis that will ferry you from the bus station to the beaches or to the downtown area $0.50. Normal taxis are also common and typically will charge $1 to get across town this may have changed. There is one major bus route inside the town; it charges $0.18 no matter where you get off. It can be boarded near the bus station - ask when you arrive.
