What to expect in Lençóis Maranhenses in June

Myllena Vieira, editor at Visite
Editor's tip

June 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 sit somewhere in the middle, with peaks on public holidays. Outside those dates, you can enjoy the place at an easy pace and spend less. It rains fairly often, so keep an indoor plan handy for gray days. If the dates line up, it is worth fitting São João / Bumba Meu Boi into your itinerary: it is what livens up the destination at that time of year.
