Santarem, located near the convergence of the Tapajos and Amazon Rivers, serves as the supply center for the miners and prospectors in the region and serves a major port of call for river steamers.
This is where the Amazon River and the Tapajos River converge. Quite a sight to see the two rivers mixing together, as the Amazon is muddy (actually silty) and the Tapajos is not.
Visiting the plantation where tropical fruits and brazil nuts were grown.

Lovely - we did a maiaca lake cruise and can highly recommend it. Saw a lot of wildlife including a black howler monkey, dolphins, sloth and osprey.

Huge industrial port as advertised. Tour to the countryside was good and sightseeing was quite interesting. EXTREMELY hot.
