Snorkelling in the Formoso River
Description
Discover the vibrant aquatic life of Bonito by snorkelling in the Formoso River. Equipped with a wetsuit, goggles, and snorkel, you will explore the hidden treasures of this river in the Mato Grosso do Sul region.
Snorkelling Experience in the Formoso River
At the pre-arranged time, we will meet at the location previously selected during your booking. Following a brief introduction, we'll put on our wetsuits and head towards the Formoso riverbed, a prominent river flow in Bonito.
As we don our goggles and snorkel, our guide will accompany us throughout the journey as we embark on an exploration of the diverse aquatic ecosystems. We'll venture into various sections of the river to uncover the underwater marvels.
The pristine waters of the Formoso River will allow us to observe schools of various fish species, ranging from the common catfish found in Bonito to the more unusual tarpons, piavuçus, tetras, and gilthead bream. Stay alert for the stunning sights beneath the surface!
After an engaging hour and a half of exploration, we will conclude our activity and return to the starting point.
