BONITO – AN LGBTQ+ WELCOMING DESTINATION LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE
|
Bonito in English translation means “beautiful,” but I’m pretty sure after visiting this Brazilian destination that you will agree that the best translation would be “wonderful.” Located 300 km away from Campo Grande, the capital city of Mato Grosso do Sul state, Bonito city was until the beginning of 2000 a typical countryside town. It’s very different today. Still small, but it’s now very busy, because of its 300,000 tourists that come from all over the world searching for adventure and a deep dive into the wild.

LGBTQ+ TRAVEL GUIDE TO BRAZIL
|
Brazil is the largest and most populated country in South America and Brazilians are well known to be friendly to foreigners, welcoming them as if they were their friends. Brazil is a paradise for visitors since the country has such a diverse offering. Incredible beaches, jungle, cold weather in the hills, adventure, desert landscapes and mega cities are just a few of the things awaiting visitors to Brazil. Even traveling from the south to the north is a different experience due to the unique cultures found in a country of its size. In fact, this diversity can even be a culture shock for Brazilians themselves traveling their own country. When it comes to finding LGBTQ+ friendly destinations in Brazil, the options are quite varied, but are primarily located along the east coast.
