Restaurante do Antônio

Top choice in Parque Nacional dos Lençóis Maranhenses


Get yourself here by foot, horseback, car, boat, on a tour or any way you can to experience the wonderful grilled shrimp at this rustic culinary destination 7km west of Atins. The location, isolated between the dunes (600m away) and the sea (1.5km at low tide), is travel-memory fodder at its finest.

A private transfer from Atins to the restaurant costs around R$200 for four to five visitors. Otherwise you can walk here after breakfast (it takes about two hours), enjoy a leisurely lunch, explore the dunes and walk back late afternoon.

There are a couple of tidy and comfortable rooms with private bathrooms (R$75 per visitor) on-site if you want to spend more time out here. It's also possible to sleep here in hammocks (R$35).
