Main
Attractions
Floating
Wearing special neoprene outfits, a mask and snorkel, visitors
float on calm and crystalline water rivers, being able
to see with excellent visibility the underwater flora and fish
from the Pantanal region – “piraputangas”,
“pintados”,
“pacus” and “dourados”. Check below
main locations for floating tours.
Bonito Adventure
It includes descending Formoso River and exploring natural submerged
grouts. After walking along some 2 km in a
forest trail, visitors may float on the transparent waters of
Formoso River, which runs along river rapids and rocky
formations.
Gruta do Lago Azul (The Blue Lake Grout)
Incredible geological formation with limestone rocks, with width
of 100 meters and depth of 70 meters, full of
espeleo-themes. At the end of the grout there is a lagoon of
transparent waters, resembling a huge bluish mirror.
The Waterfalls Park
A trail going through six beautiful waterfalls from where visitors
can view beautiful landscapes and photograph, and also
freshen up in a delicious bath.
The Anhumas Abyss
An opening on the ground takes us down into a vertical abyss.
It is necessary that visitors use the techniques of “rapel”
to get to the bottom of the cave, 72 meters below the surface.
Down there, there is a lake with approximately 8- meters
in depth, where diving allows viewing limestone formations.

Vivo Project
Leisure and environmental education to demonstrate that it is
possible to ally nature conservationism, ecological
tourism and production in a regular farm.
“Lagoa Misteriosa” (the
Mysterious Lagoon)
40 km away from Bonito, in the municipality of Jardim, this
Lake thrills visitors due to its depth and transparency of
water. During winter months – from June to September -,
visibility surpasses 40 meters.
Mimoso Grout
Located 35 km away from downtown Bonito, it is one of the most
beautiful caverns in the world for diving, one that
requires more experience from divers. Divers must be certified,
at least, as “Overhead Divers” so they can risk
exploring the 70-meter extension of the cavern, located 20 meters
below the surface. To enter the Cones Hall,
named after the immense rocky formations of up to 8 meters high
found inside that “hall”, divers need an “Intro
to Cave”-type certificate. Mimoso Grout is considered
one of the most amazing cavern-diving points in Brazil.
