What to expect in Lençóis Maranhenses in October
Editor's tip
October is spring in Lençóis Maranhenses. In Brazil the seasons are the reverse of those in the Northern Hemisphere. Highs reach 33 °C (91 °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 also rains very little: this is one of the driest months of the year, good for anyone who wants an outdoor itinerary.
