Bonito, Ecotourism destination in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil

Natural rivers with crystalline waters flow through limestone formations, creating an extensive network of underwater caves and springs across the municipality.

The region began as Rincao Bonito Fazenda in 1869 when Captain Euzebio Luiz da Costa Leite Falcao acquired the land and established the first settlement.

Local environmental protection measures limit daily visitor numbers at each natural site, demonstrating Brazilian commitment to conservation and sustainable tourism.

Visitors can reach Bonito through Campo Grande International Airport, located 300 kilometers away, with subsequent transportation options including rental cars and shuttle services.

The calcium carbonate content in the rivers naturally filters sediments, resulting in waters so clear that swimmers can observe fish from 50 meters away.
