Your journey begins with a thrilling 4x4 safari ride from the hotel to the river crossing, where your vehicle boards a small ferry alongside five others to glide across the calm Preguiças River.
From there, brace yourself for an hour-long, high-energy ride over bumpy sand trails that lead you straight into the heart of Lençóis Maranhenses National Park. Here, an extraordinary sight awaits: endless rolling sand dunes dotted with sparkling rain-fed lagoons.
A short 15-minute barefoot trek across the golden sands brings you to one of these pristine lagoons. Dip into the warm, crystal-clear waters for a blissful 45 minutes of pure relaxation, surrounded by breathtaking beauty.
Pro Tip: Choose the evening safari for cooler temperatures and a more pleasant experience.
