What to do in Lençóis Maranhenses

Dune field with lagoons

Over 1,500 km² of white dunes where rainfall forms thousands of freshwater lagoons between the crests.

Lagoa Azul and Lagoa Bonita

The two most visited lagoons in the park, both reached by 4x4 circuits leaving Barreirinhas.

Trekking crossing

A 3 to 4 day walk linking communities such as Atins and Santo Amaro through the dune field, sleeping in oases along the way.

Springs and rivers

On the park edges, clear-water rivers such as the Formiga and the Cardosa round out the itinerary.
