Bonito, in southern Brazil's Mato Grosso do Sul state, is a land of plenty when it comes to natural beauty. Thanks in part to the region's glass-clear bodies of water—from the Rio Formoso and Rio da Plata to one of the world's largest flooded caves—outdoor activities in Bonito generally involve taking a dip. Swimming, snorkeling, and tubing are all on offer here. But for those who prefer more terrestrial ways of getting out in nature, other outdoorsy options range from hiking and ziplining through area forests to horseback riding.
