In the afternoon, before the group moves to another campsite, we will have a one-hour (or longer) visit to the community to learn how to make your own customized bracelet.

After dinner, we will take a night trail through the forest and engage in some jungle activities.

The group will spend the afternoon exploring a new area of the forest before nightfall, then return to camp. In the evening, you will go out by boat with a flashlight and learn how locals in this area use spears to fish among the small igarapés and lakes of the region. Afterwards, return to the camp to spend the night.
