Barreirinhas trip planner

Most visitors consider Barreirinhas little more than a convenient base for exploring the nearby national park, yet the town's sandy beaches and picturesque riverside setting make it a rewarding destination in and of itself. Many local tour operators provide guided excursions to the area's famed sand dunes, a hugely popular addition to practically every Barreirinhas itinerary. The shifting dunes shelter a varied birdlife, concentrated around several freshwater lakes. If the journey across the dunes seems a bit exhausting, create a more relaxing Barreirinhas vacation by exploring the walkable town's restaurants and shops, or take a guided boat tour down the Preguica River. Barreirinhas is in State of Maranhao (MA).
