About This Activity

These creations have become the backbone of the village’s livelihood, showcasing the incredible craftsmanship and cultural heritage of the region.

Just minutes away, lose yourself in the vast Viana Desert, a mesmerizing expanse formed by sands carried from the Sahara Desert. The shifting dunes create a breathtaking landscape, perfect for quiet reflection or stunning photography.
