Then there's a quick stop at Terra Boa to see if we can catch a recurring mirage that occurs on its sands.

Once we've rumbled all the way to Pedra de Lume, you can indulge in a spa-like experience by floating on the salt lakes, known for their therapeutic properties. As the day comes to a close, we'll make our way to Ninho dos Piratas restaurant, where you'll be greeted with a welcome drink before enjoying a barbecue dinner accompanied by live music.
