Currently planning your next trip to Brazil? Love the desert? Then setting aside at least two days to explore the Sand Dune Pools located inside Lencois Maranhenses National Park is a definite must!
Lencois Maranhenses National Park
The Lencois Maranhenses National Park is located on the north eastern coastal side of Brazil. The Park is well known for its spectacular sand dunes, which are naturally and impressively sculpted by the desert winds. While much of the area is covered with sand and sand dunes making it look like a desert, the fact is the area gets too much rain in order to be officially called a desert. In fact, the area receives almost five times as much rain as an actual desert would receive in any one year period.
