Lençóis Maranhenses National Park in Brazil is a breathtaking natural wonder known for its vast expanse of white sand dunes interspersed with crystal-clear freshwater lagoons. Covering an area of approximately 1,500 square kilometers in the state of Maranhão, this unique landscape resembles a desert but is actually subject to seasonal rainfall. The rainwater collects in the valleys between the dunes, forming stunning turquoise and emerald-green lagoons that appear from June to September. The park is a haven for ecotourism, offering activities such as guided tours, swimming, and dune buggy rides.
