Bird Watching in Praia Grande

We will pick you up at your hotel in Praia Grande and travel to an ecological refuge in the Atlantic Forest.

Upon arrival at the refuge, located at the foot of the Malacara Canyon, we will embark on a 3-kilometer (1.8-mile) hiking route to spot native bird species. Keep an eye out for birds endemic to the Atlantic Forest, including Pygmy Hermits, Pauraque Nightjars, and Common Surucuas.

The tour includes an ornithology book and binoculars to assist in bird identification. Our knowledgeable guide will provide insights to help distinguish species based on plumage, beak type, trill, and other features.

We will continue hiking to a waterfall in the forest, where we will take a break for those interested in a refreshing dip. If the weather is unfavorable, we will still pause to take photos of the area.

Finally, we will return to the meeting point after 3 hours, concluding our tour.
