7. Boa Viagem Beach, Brazil
Boa Viagem Beach has a menacing reputation of tiger shark aggressions and high shark attack fatality rates. A neighborhood of Recife, a city, which boasts of a high number of tourist visits, forms part of the longest seafront in Brazil surrounded by high-rise buildings. Its coastal reef cushions the water waves and helps keep the water at moderate temperatures making it one of the coolest beaches. However, albeit the comfortable ambience it offers its huge influx of tourists, it is highly infested with savage sharks. Because of the shark infestations coupled with the proliferating influx of tourists, the beach records high shark attack rates. It has the highest shark attack fatalities rate in the world standing at 37% above the world average of 16%.
8. Valle Del Cauca, Columbia’s Pacific Coast
The golden poison frog prevalent in Columbia’s tourist trails with Valle Del Cauca recording the highest infestation is a toxic frog with an alkaloid toxin coat that can cause paralysis and heart failure. Columbia’s pacific coast is one of the most biologically diverse area and is home to hundreds of sub-species of snakes and many spiders, which are poisonous. Venomous scorpions are also part of the diverse biological ecosystem and tourists should watch out while wandering the Columbia tourist trails.
