💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~11.8 hours of daylight in July.
- This is the preferred overlap for the three landscapes: Lençóis' official guidance identifies May–September after the rains, while Jericoacoara remains open year-round. Lagoon depth, wind, rain and route access still need a live check.
- Light days: day 1, day 8 have one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill them — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
