Early in the morning after breakfast we head to Rio da Prata, 50 kilometers away. The water is warm all year round. A wetsuit will be provided at the entrance to protect you from the sun’s rays. The tour begins with a pleasant walk along the banks of the Rio da Prata. The path leads through centuries-old trees, numerous orchids and bromeliads. With a little luck, you can see several species of birds and mammals, such as coatis, capuchin monkeys or anteaters.
After a brief introduction from the guide, we descend along the river for about two kilometers with other participants into the shallow spring waters of the crystal clear Rio da Prata. We are accompanied by a small boat and countless colorful and sparkling fish. After this unique experience, a rich lunch with local specialties awaits us and a hammock to relax.

After lunch we reach the Buraco das Araras, a natural reserve of 100 hectares, known for birdwatching. The visitor and excursion center is run by a family business, which also makes an important contribution to bird protection projects and scientific research.
Buraco das Araras is the largest sinkhole in South America and a perfect place to get up close and personal with macaw parrots. During the mating season, the red macaw population is estimated to be over 120. In addition to the numerous macaws, there are also more than 150 other bird species resident here. After a short walk we arrive at two platforms. Bird watching and game drive take about 2 hours. After the visit, you will return to Bonito in the late afternoon, where you will be accompanied to your accommodation.
