Morning departure to Barreirinhas with a stop for breakfast, where a 4WD takes us to the entrance of Lençóis Maranhenses National Park. Lunch time. Then we will go out to see the amazing Lençóis Maranhenses National Park; this route is done in 4WD (off road), crossing loose sandy trails amid the vegetation, through small rivers, giving us the feeling of being inside a 'car-boat'. Arriving at our destination, we take a short walk over the dunes of Lençóis, vehicles not being allowed within the park. Time available to swim and refresh in the crystal clear lagoons to finally return after sunset.
