Brazil's Enchanting Desert Lagoons, Lençóis Maranhenses

Lensois Marinenes, a national park in Brazil, transforms from a desert to a lagoon-filled landscape during the rainy season from January to June. Rainwater collects between sand dunes, forming clear lagoons that can be over 300 feet long and 10 feet deep. Visitors face challenges reaching these lagoons, requiring a four-wheeler to navigate the rough terrain. The lagoons vanish during the dry season, returning the area to its desert state.
