Lagoa Misteriosa is an amazing dive. The water is incredibly clear. I was fortunate to go down to around 25 meters and spent around 40 minutes in the water. The view was pretty amazing. The staff were very helpful. Definitely visit Lagoa Misteriosa if your visiting Bonito.

This was simply one of the most incredible experiences of my entire life. I have already recommended this to friends and family that plan to visit Brazil in the future. We saw a shy river otter, tons of huge fish, and even floated under a tree filled with monkeys. Not to mention the incredible natural phenomenon where the spring that feeds the river comes up from the riverbed under a sand floor and looks like boiling sand. Check out the BBC Documentary Seven Worlds One Planet to see an HD version of this incredible river. The lunch afterwards was incredibly good, and I highly recommend chatting with the employees. I was taken around the grounds at the visitors center and shown all of the different birds that congregate in the trees on the property. Big red macaws and a few beautiful Toucans among many others.

There are several water based attractions around Bonito, this really stood out. After a very tasty buffet lunch a guide took our group of 9 on a forest trail to view about a dozen stunning waterfalls and swim in the sparkling, clear water under several of them including a swim behind the curtain of water in one case. Everything was very well organised, the guide trying his best to speak English to me with a virtually all-Brazilian (Portuguese) group. Highly recommend Elson Junior our guide for his warmth, energy and helpfulness to all members of the group.
