Rio do Peixe Waterfalls
Bonito MS
Aquário Natural is the snorkeling activity that takes place in Baía Bonita River in Bonito MS Brazil. Out of the options that include the rivers' springs, this one is closest to downtown, making it easy and quick to get to.
It is considered the best snorkeling option for children and beginners, because it offers lots of extra support. The environment itself is filled with colorful fish and plants, which work together to make a gorgeous underwater view.
Aquário Natural means Natural Aquarium and the place has this name because all the life and colors make you feel like you are snorkeling inside a well decorated aquarium.
