Introduction
Brazil is a land of natural beauty, from the Amazon Rainforest to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. Tourism in Brazil has been skyrocketing as more people seek out new adventures and experiences. If you’re planning a trip to this South American country, here are some must-see destinations for nature lovers:
Iguazu Falls
Iguazu Falls is a waterfall located in the Misiones Province of Argentina and Parana, Brazil. It is an easy day trip from both cities, but you can also spend a few nights nearby at one of the many hotels or hostels nearby.
The falls are best seen from above, either by taking a helicopter tour or going on one of several zip lines that have been set up for visitors to enjoy–and yes, those are two ways to see them! There are three main waterfalls here: The Devil’s Throat (which is actually only 10 meters high), Upper Iguazu Falls (also known as Garganta del Diablo) and Lower Iguazu Falls (Garganta del Diablo). The latter two combined make up part of UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985; however both sides’ parks still remain open even though there has been talk about closing down parts due to over-crowding issues recently due mostly because tourists tend not take proper precautions when visiting them such as wearing sunscreen despite being outdoors all day long in high temperatures plus humidity levels reaching 70 percent during summer months which makes conditions near impossible if not dangerous especially if pregnant women try going without any protection whatsoever…
Amazon Rainforest
The Amazon Rainforest is the largest tropical rainforest in the world, located in Brazil. It’s home to over 3 million species of plants and animals, including many indigenous tribes. The Amazon River flows through this rainforest, providing fresh water for thousands of miles before draining into the Atlantic Ocean.
The Amazon Rainforest covers an area of 2 billion acres (8 million square kilometers), which makes up about half of South America and more than half its total forest cover!
Pantanal National Park
Pantanal National Park is the world’s largest wetland and home to hundreds of species of birds, mammals and reptiles. It’s located in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul in central Brazil.
The park has an area of over 500,000 hectares (1 million acres) and is home to more than 400 species of mammals including jaguars and giant anteaters; over 500 species of birds including the endangered jabiru stork; as well as 600 species of fish — making it one of South America’s most biodiverse areas.
Ilha Grande
Ilha Grande is located in the Rio de Janeiro state and can be reached by boat or plane. The island has a population of around 6,000 people, but during the summer months it swells with tourists who flock to its sandy beaches and crystal clear waters.
The island offers several activities for nature lovers including hiking trails through lush rainforest, boat tours around its interior lakes, diving excursions off its southern coast (where there are some of Brazil’s best dive sites), horseback riding along beautiful beaches and more!
There are many places to stay on Ilha Grande; however we recommend staying at Cabana do Pescador because it has amazing views from every room – plus they have free wifi so you don’t have to worry about staying connected while you’re away from home! If you’re looking for somewhere less expensive then try Hotel do Parque which offers basic rooms at a reasonable price point ($100/night).
Fernando de Noronha Island
Famed as the “Island of Pregnant Women,” Fernando de Noronha is a nature reserve off Brazil’s coast. It’s home to rare and endangered species, including sea turtles, dolphins, whales and thousands of birds. The island also boasts some great beaches–including Praia do Tonelero and Praia do Forte–and hiking trails that wind through lush forests on this volcanic archipelago.
