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.

Above and Beyond

My family and I have used Steph's services in booking our first family vacation. She provided all information (and more) and gave us the best choices explaining exactly why she chose those for us. In the end, we ended up booking something she suggested and we had an amazing time in Punta Cana at Royalton. Steph has gone above and beyond for us to make sure we had everything we needed plus more. We can't wait to book our next...
