Partire da São Luís o Fortaleza?
✈ Fortaleza → São Luís
Start with Jericoacoara (the most popular destination with the best infrastructure) and end at the Lençóis lagoons. Ideal between June and August — the lagoons will be full when you arrive. Fortaleza has more direct international flights (Iberia Madrid, Air France Paris).
✈ São Luís → Fortaleza
Start with the lagoons (the most season-sensitive highlight — depends on sufficient rainfall) and end with Jeri's winds. Best if traveling September through November, prioritizing kitesurfing. Flights to São Luís are usually 10-20% cheaper.
Periodo migliore per ogni tratta
- 🌊 Lençóis Maranhenses — Lagoons full from June to September. Peak in July (school holidays, more expensive). August is the smart month: full lagoons, fewer crowds.
- 💨 Jericoacoara (kite) — Strong, consistent wind from August to December. Peak September-November. Outside wind season, Jeri still works for non-kiters.
- 🌀 Parnaíba Delta (optional) — If including the Delta, best May through August — wildlife more active, pleasant climate. Outside this window, consider skipping straight to Barreirinhas.
- 🌦 Avoid — January to March: heavy rain in Maranhão, lagoons without water in Lençóis, bad roads between Tutóia and Parnaíba.
Come iniziare
From São Luís (alternative start): Marechal Cunha Machado Airport (SLZ) with flights from São Paulo, Brasília, and Belém. Flights usually 10-20% cheaper. Van to Barreirinhas: ~4h, 5+ daily departures.
Jericoacoara environmental tax: R$41.50/person (valid for 7 days). Paid at the village entrance.
What to pack: SPF 50+ sunscreen, hat, insect repellent, sandals that handle sand and water, light clothing, windbreaker for speedboats and Jeri's winds. Cash is essential — Atins has no ATMs and very few card terminals.
