There are two seasons in the Pantanal, a rain season and a dry season. Nowadays it's difficult to precise when the rain season starts and ends.
 | Rain season in the pantanal In general we can say that the rain season starts in November and ends in April. At this time the water level raises and covers a large part of the land giving you the possibility to explore the waterways, revealing fantastic landscape views. The rain season is also the breeding season for most of the animals, when they search for higher lands to hide. | Dry season in the Pantanal
In the dry season (May to October) the water level goes down forming baias (bays), lakes and waterways. It is the season when trees start to bloom and animals come out to look for food for their new born: mammals, reptiles and birds. As the land gets dryer they gather around the baias, lakes and waterways looking for water. Giving you the chance to spot a variety of species. |  |
