- The lake is actually called Araraquara, but it soon became popular by the name of Coca-Cola because of its color being similar to the beverage. Located in Mata da Estrela, a great Atlantic rainforest reserve, the lake is neither carbonated nor polluted. The lake gets its colour due to high concentration of iodine, iron, and pigment from the reeds near the shore.
- Despite its color, the water is not polluted and once can enjoy swimming in the lake.
- To reach this unusual tourist spot, one must walk through a trail in the forest for 5 hours, or experience an adventurous ride from the beach.
- Over the years, this spot has emerged as one of the most unusual tourist attractions in Brazil. While adults love to visit this spot for its medicinal benefits, kids come here to spend time when they hear its nickname.
