I'm here in the beautiful Bonito. So far I've spoken about riding ziplines into rivers and snorkelling with thousands of fish. Today I went to learn about animal conservation and how snakes are helped in the wild.

You can see the ranch is a pretty spectacular place. We arrived after a long journey over scorched red roads.

From here we went to another of the many jewels belonging to Bonito - the Gruta do Lago Azul. I had heard a lot of people talking about this as a must see destination.

Just like the name Bonito which translates to "beautiful" the name of this place is pretty self explanatory too: it means blue caves.

I think I had an idea of what it would be like but nothing prepares you for the perfect and surreal shades of blue.

I mentioned before that Bonito is the eco tourism capital of Brazil - just like in the rest of Bonito, the caves are very well managed. It is for this reason that tourists and locals are not allowed to go in the water, or even to touch it.

Because of this the caves have remained completely pristine.

What is the cost of the tour, living and food expenses?

Are you allowed to wade or swim in the water in the cave. Or is it just a look, see and do not touch tour.
