Camping do Gordo — formally known as Balneário e Camping do Gordo — sits along the Rio Formoso, the main river running through the Bonito region of Mato Grosso do Sul.

The site doubles as a balneário (river swimming area), drawing visitors year-round who come to enjoy direct access to the clear waters of the Rio Formoso, including trails that lead to small waterfalls and natural bathing spots.

The campground itself is a simple setup with basic infrastructure: kiosks, barbecue grills, and restrooms. Wildlife sightings are a notable draw, with macaws, giant anteaters, seriemas, and maned wolves frequently spotted in the surrounding area.

Ranked among the better camping options in Bonito, it offers an affordable base — though prices in Bonito generally run high compared to other Brazilian destinations.
