Birdwatching: Mangrove Eco-Boat Tour – Fauna & Flora

If you're in São Paulo and a nature lover, or just passing through on your way to the Pantanal or the Amazon, take the opportunity to discover one of Brazil's most fascinating ecosystems: the mangroves of the São Paulo coast, part of the Atlantic Forest biome. Just 60 km from the capital (about a 1h30 drive), you'll set off on a unique experience through the mangroves of Santos. On this half-day tour (approximately 6 hours, including transportation), you'll cruise by boat alongside a bilingual guide. During the tour, you can observe the region's traditional stilt houses—structures built on wooden piles that reveal the history and the bond between local communities and the mangrove. Get ready to spot incredible birds in their natural habitat, such as the striking scarlet ibis, the elegant roseate spoonbill, white and blue herons, wild ducks, and many other species. Beyond the rich wildlife, you'll get a close look at the mangrove's typical vegetation, including bromeliads, hibiscus, fungi, and other species adapted to this singular environment.
