Caracol Falls

Caracol Falls, or Cascata do Caracol, is a 426-foot (130 meter) waterfall about 4.35 miles (7.00 km) from Canela, Brazil in Caracol State Park (Parque do Caracol). It is formed by the Caracol River and cuts out of basalt cliffs in the Serra Geral mountain range, falling into the Vale da Lageana. Caracol Falls has long attracted visitors and is the second most popular natural tourist attraction in Brazil, trailing only Iguazu Falls. In 2009, it received more than 289,000 visitors. There is a nearby 100-foot observation tower that offers an elevator and a panoramic view, as well as a cable car that gives tourists an aerial view of the waterfall. The area also provides a restaurant and craft stalls.

Beautiful resort with friendly staff......

Sam listened to us and chose the perfect place for a relaxing vacation. We wouldn’t have found this place without his help. The resort was low key, fun and the food was delicious.From the resort we did one excursion swimming with the sea turtles, swam in a cave and visited both Tulum and Playa del Carmen. Now we are planning a bike expedition for 2027.
