About Santarém

Santarém is a river port in Pará, in the Brazilian Amazon, where the clear green Tapajós meets the brown Amazon in a long, slow meeting of waters.

Santarém stands where the Tapajós flows into the Amazon, roughly midway between Belém and Manaus. Off the waterfront the two rivers run side by side for a stretch, the Tapajós clear and greenish-blue, the Amazon thick with brown sediment. A Jesuit mission of the seventeenth century grew into a river port, and the Tapajó people who gave the river its name are remembered in museums that show their finely modelled pottery.
