What to expect in Lençóis Maranhenses in August
Editor's tip
August is the heart of winter in Lençóis Maranhenses. In Brazil the seasons are the reverse of those in the Northern Hemisphere. Highs reach 32 °C (90 °F): the heat calls for early starts, sunscreen, and spending the middle of the day in the shade or in the water. Crowds are light, which tends to work in favor of travelers: shorter lines, more peace and quiet, and cheaper lodging. It also rains very little: this is one of the driest months of the year, good for anyone who wants an outdoor itinerary.
