Brazil
Parcel da Mãe Joana is at Ilha dos Búzios, which is home to a traditional caiçara community that lives from small-scale fishing and from growing cassava and bananas. On the boat ride to the Búzios archipelago it is common to see bottlenose dolphins, Bryde's whales and even humpback whales. In the region, the water tends to be around 22 °C and can reach 27 °C from mid-January until the arrival of autumn. In early summer, thermoclines may occur: layers of very cold water within a certain band of the water column.
