The Igarapé do Juma is a blackwater creek, or igarapé, located in the state of Amazonas, Brazil, within the broader Amazon River basin. It is characterized by calm, dark-colored waters that create mirror-like reflections, especially in its narrower channels. The waterway flows through areas of flooded forest, known as igapó, and is part of a complex network of creeks and rivers. Paddling here typically involves the use of canoes, which allow for quiet navigation through these serene environments. The overall experience is one of remote immersion in the Amazon rainforest, focused on wildlife observation and exploring the intricate aquatic landscapes.

A primary access point for paddlers is the Juma Amazon Lodge, which serves as a base for guided excursions. From the lodge, trips are conducted by canoe, motorboat, or a combination of boat and van transport, indicating that some routes may involve multi-modal travel. A typical reconnaissance tour through the igarapés can last approximately three hours. The area is known for wildlife such as caimans and pink dolphins, which can be spotted during paddling trips. The flooded forest provides a distinctive aesthetic, with trees rising directly from the dark water. Paddling is not restricted, though guided tours are the standard mode of operation for visitors to the area.
