Mulheres de areia (Portuguese pronunciation: [muˈʎɛɾiʒ dʒaˈɾejɐ], "Sand Women") is a Brazilian telenovela produced by the TV Globo and aired between 1 February 1993 and 24 September 1993, in 203 episodes. It was written by Ivani Ribeiro with the contribution of Solange Castro Neves and directed by Wolf Maya, Ignácio Coqueiro, Andre Schultz and Carlos Magalhães. It is a remake of the soap opera of the same name that aired on the now-defunct Rede Tupi from 1973 to 1974, when Eva Wilma portrayed the two main characters of the plot (the twins Ruth and Raquel), which in turn is based on the radio soap opera The Brides Die at Sea of 1965. In 2023, it received a special re-airing in honor of its 30th anniversary.
