Underwater river scene with freshwater plants and tetra fish, Aquário Natural, Rio Baia Bonito, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil

So fresh, so clean. Freshwater plants in Aquario Natural, Brazil

With the name ‘Aquário Natural’, you might think this gorgeous capture is from a aquarium, but not quite. Instead, this photo was taken at the source of the Baía Bonita River within the Baía Bonita Ecological Reserve in Bonito, Brazil. Whether you’re a tourist or a local, this place is a must-visit. The crystal-clear water is home to 30 species of fish and exotic underwater fauna, which is perfect for snorkeling. You can swim a 600 metre stretch of the river or get these picturesque views on their glass-bottomed boat ride. While this place isn’t a traditional aquarium, it’ll feel like you’re right inside of a giant one.
