Paddling near Marabá, Pará

Marabá sits at the confluence of the Rio Itacaiunas and the Rio Tocantins in southeastern Pará, making the city's waterfront its defining geographic feature. These two large rivers, along with nearby tributaries such as the Rio Araguaia and Rio Sororó, form the backbone of paddling in the region — broad Amazonian currents suited to kayaking and canoeing on open, moving water.
