The Lençóis Maranhenses, located in the state of Maranhão, are a spectacular natural landscape and one of the most stunning ecotourism and adventure destinations in Brazil. With vast white sand dunes interspersed with crystal-clear lagoons, the scenery is an invitation for contemplation and adventure, especially during the rainy season, from May to September, when the lagoons are fuller.

The Lençóis Maranhenses National Park protects this unique region, being a mosaic of natural beauties. Besides touring the dunes and lagoons that characterize the landscape, it’s possible to experience the beautiful trekking across the Lençóis Maranhenses, offering visitors a total immersion in the place.

The municipality of Barreirinhas is the main gateway to this natural paradise. However, the Lençóis Maranhenses are part of the established Rota das Emoções (Route of Emotions), which also includes destinations such as the Delta of Parnaíba (PI) and Jericoacoara (CE), forming a trio of stunning landscapes in the Brazilian Northeast and making the trip an unforgettable experience.
