Lençóis Maranhenses National Park is a unique landscape of snow-white dunes and turquoise lagoons that change every year under the influence of winds and tropical rains. The subjects for shooting here are truly unique and unrepeatable. And the red-orange silhouette of the Rio Negro River is amazing when you fly over it in a tiny Cessna. We will spend four days in the national park to drive through all the best points from which memorable and unusual views open up. We will stay in comfortable and original pousada hotels, typical for the north of the country, and immerse ourselves in the colorful landscapes of the Brazilian outback.

The dunes are especially good from the air, so take your drones with you.

TOUR ITINERARY

Day 0 (July 13)

We arrive in the wonderful city of Sao Luis, located in the Gulf of St. Marcos, where we will spend the night in a hotel and rest after the flight.
Day 1 (July 14)

Today we will drive to the village of Santo Amaro, located on the very edge of magnificent snow-white dunes. This is a charming authentic village in the Brazilian outback. At sunset we will go to our first shoot in the dunes.

Day 2 (July 15)

On this day we will again go to catch the rays of the rising sun on one of the many turquoise lagoons.
After breakfast our way lies to the town of Bereirinhas. There are numerous restaurants, shops and other attributes of a developed tourist region. But the dunes and lagoons themselves are not at all inferior because of this. In the evening at sunset we will go to shoot new dunes and new stunning landscapes of an extraordinary desert.
Days 3-4 (July 16-17)

These days are dedicated to shooting in the park. From Bareirinhas you can get to several magnificent lakes, where you can always get great shots of white sand dunes.

For one of the shootings we will definitely go to the ocean, the desert reaches there too. The Atins dunes belong to the same park, but are a little different. We will look into the Small Lençois Desert. It also has different landscapes.

One of the days, instead of going to the dunes, you can fly over the desert in a small plane and shoot from the air. You will see the branched bed of the Rio Negro River, crossing the desert with red-orange ribbons, and incredible patterns of sand dunes interspersed with lagoons of all sorts of shades.
Day 5 (July 18)

On this day we will say goodbye to the wonderful park, take some sunrise photos, have breakfast and head to Sao Luis airport, where we can fly home after 2:00 PM.
