Bonito Aventura (Bonito Adventure)

Is it a snorkeling or adventure type of activity? It is both! That is the best way to think of the Bonito Aventura (Bonito Adventure) activity in Bonito MS Brazil.

It happens at Rio Formoso, one of the area's main rivers. Because it is deeper and wider than the other snorkeling rivers, Formoso River allows visitors to swim more freely, using their legs, doing apnea dives and more! What more? Rapids!

Can you imagine taking on rapids while you snorkel? That is the touch of adventure you get at Bonito Aventura. You snorkel down Formoso River's rapids.

Depending on the day, it is possible to see fish and other life forms also, but this activity's main focus is the adventure in itself. Enjoy!
