Caldas Novas Thermal Resort in Goiás state, in Brazil's central plateau, is home to the world's largest thermal water park system and one of the most visited thermal destinations anywhere on the globe. The sodium bicarbonate springs here emerge at comfortable temperatures of 37–52°C from deep artesian wells tapping the vast aquifer beneath the cerrado savanna, and the resort complex encompasses dozens of water parks, hotel pools and wellness facilities spread across the city. With millions of visitors per year, Caldas Novas has built an entire tourist economy around its warm mineral waters, offering something for everyone from medical balneotherapy to family leisure bathing. The distinctive red earth and cerrado vegetation of central Brazil surrounds this extraordinary thermal city.

Insider tip — DiRoma Acqua Park is the largest and most varied. Book a hotel with direct thermal access. The Brazilian high season (July, December–January) is very busy. Prefer September to November.
