Reserva Natural Palmarí

Amazon Basin


This magical slice of rainforest is both a reserve and a research center working closely with local indigenous communities to promote ecotourism. Its rambling lodge sits on the Brazilian bank of the river, overlooking a wide bend where pink and gray dolphins are often seen. The lodge features several cabañas and a round maloca (central meeting house) with hammocks.
