Ilha
Marajo - Amazonas, Brazil
From
Forteleza we move around to Belem, capital of the Amazonas region. Entering the
mouth of the mighty Amazon is exciting, and the closer we get to Belem, the
heavier the traffic becomes. The Amazon river is literally a waterborne highway,
transporting all manner of goods and people, in all manner of craft. After some
days anchored off the swanky yacht club we are ready to head into the smaller
waterways that encircle the mid delta island of Marajo. Encompassing an area as
big as Switzerland, this is no small island, and the maze like network of
waterways surrounding it offer plenty of alternatives to pass along. A month on,
and plenty of adventures later, we are through to Macapa and exiting through
canal do norte, back out into the clean water and long swells of the Atlantic.
