São Luis/Lençois Maranhenses

A huge desert on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, countless dunes and crystal-waater lagoons. Paradise does exist, and it is called Lençois Maranhenses National Park. The landscape is unbelievable. Pre Amazonic forests meet enormous dunes that move and change shape at the winds` will. Thousands of lakes appear a result of the rains in the beginning of the year. The lagoons Are Sometimes many kilometers long and five meters deep, given the golden, sandy landscape a special color pattern. The best gateway to the Lençois is the nice town of Barreirinhas, 371 km far from São Luis . The town is also famous for its ingenious buriti straw handicraft. From Barreirinhas to the dunes, navigating along the Preguica river gives you an idea of the adventure ahead, as you`ll see fisherman communities and natural beauties that have remained untouched for centuries. After boating on the river you will enjoy trekking and driving jeeps on the dunes.

São Luis

São Luis, the states capital and main city of Maranhão, is located in a charming island, surrounded by beautiful beaches, dunes and mangroves. São Luis is the only capital city in Brazil that was not founded by the Portuguese. It was in fact born under the French rule, being named after Louis XXIII, the king of France. The city was later invaded by the Dutch, who in their turn were expelled by the Potuguese. It was under the Prtuguese rule that São Luis flourished as an impatant port, and today the capital is one of the cities in which the Portuguese flavor and culture are most vividly retained. Because of such interesting historical background and its unique, well-preserved Portuguese colonial architecture, São Luis was declared a Mankind Heritage Site by UNESCO.
