Day 2

Barreirinhas

BreakfastFull-day excursion to Lençóis Maranhenses National Park with visits to the Blue and Bonita Lagoons 👥 SharedThe tour begins with a transfer from the pousada to the pier, where we cross the Preguiças River by ferry. From there we follow trails — sandbanks or plains — where the vehicle shakes considerably and bumps are unavoidable. Upon reaching the Great Lençóis Maranhenses the open-sided 4x4 truck stops and our adventure begins with the challenge of climbing a very steep dune of about 80 m in length or ascending a staircase of approximately 144 steps. After this initial obstacle the physical effort required decreases significantly. Once on the top, we are rewarded with a panoramic view of Lençóis Maranhenses, simply breathtaking; you will be able to walk between the lagoons and refresh yourself in their crystalline waters, and to conclude, the first dune offers an incredible view of the sunset — a true spectacle of nature. Afterwards we return to Barreirinhas.Overnight: Barreirinhas
