Bonito in October
Good time to visit
October offers a good compromise - still great weather for most activities but with returning affordability. Just prepare for the occasional shower to cool things down.
Weather
October sees rising temperatures and increasing humidity to around 65%. Afternoon showers become possible but not yet frequent. Rivers start showing slight color changes as organic matter increases.

All Months
April through September is peak season, and there's a reason everyone comes then. Rivers run clearest during dry season, visibility hits 40+ meters, and you won't sweat through your clothes walking between attractions. July gets busy with Brazilian school holidays — book tours weeks ahead. December through March brings rain that muddies the water and makes some trails impassable. But here's a secret: late March and early April offer perfect weather with smaller crowds. Water's still clear, temperatures hover around 25°C, and you'll actually get those Instagram shots without tourists photobombing.
