Santo Antonio Birdwatching Route with Roberto Botelho
A private 4- to 7-day birding route through the marshes and Pampa-influenced landscapes around Santo Antonio da Patrulha.
About this tour
This private route concentrates on Santo Antonio da Patrulha and its surrounding wetlands in northern Rio Grande do Sul. The area lies near the coast within greater Porto Alegre, approximately 40 km from Osorio and 130 km from Roberto’s base in Sao Francisco de Paula.
Marshes and Pampa-influenced open country distinguish this route from Roberto’s highland Atlantic Forest work. The flexible four- to seven-day format can be adjusted to water levels, access and current bird activity, with particular attention to blackbirds, seedeaters and other wetland or grassland species.
Santo Antonio also forms part of Roberto’s broader Litoral Norte programme. Its exact combination with nearby sections, daily sequence, accommodation, transport, meeting point, price and included services are confirmed after an inquiry. Target species remain possible rather than guaranteed.
