    I had no idea to find a river so beautiful in the vicinity of the sheets. The vegetation on the banks is dense and very rich, with feet of ACAI, coconut palms, babassu, carnaúba, among others. The mouth of the river Preguiças also gives us with swarms of guarás sunset ... just wonderful!

    Descent of the Rio on a fast boat with stops at small Lençois (pretty big), to the lighthouse of Madacure then to Caburé for the meal and the immense beaches and deserted! Just a shame to leave a little early but a good day!

Where to stay in Barreirinhas

©
Barreirinhas serves mainly as a jumping off point for visiting the nearby national park, so the town's accommodation options remain relatively limited and fairly expensive. Guesthouses near the town center are probably your best bet, the majority offering clean but very basic rooms with few frills. You won't find any luxurious hotels here, but you can choose between several mid-range establishments providing air-conditioned rooms with parking and tree-shaded outdoor areas.
