SEE DETAILS
Like a mirage, one of Brazil’s most magnificent landscapes, Lençóis Maranhenses looks like gigantic white bedsheets. Located in the sun-drenched and laidback region of Northeast Brazil, this is a desert of dunes composed of fine, white sands that stand as high as 40 meters (130 feet), extending across 80 kilometers (50 miles) of coastline and stretching about 25 kilometers (15 miles) inland – all of them interspersed with green and blue lagoons.

Exploring this landscape feels like stepping into a dream, whether on foot, by 4×4, or even by boat along nearby rivers.
Beyond its stunning scenery, the region offers a tranquil escape into Brazil’s Northeast, where time slows down, and local hospitality shines.
