Itajaí, Port municipality in Santa Catarina, Brazil

Located at the mouth of the Itajaí River, this municipality spans across 304 square kilometers of coastal terrain with beaches and urban developments.

The region was first colonized in 1658, but the official foundation as a municipality occurred on June 15, 1860, followed by German immigration.

The Marejada festival celebrates the maritime heritage through seafood gastronomy, while the October music festival brings performers from across Brazil.

The Port of Itajaí operates as the second largest container terminal in Brazil, processing a substantial portion of the nation's exports.

The municipality maintains three distinct geographical zones: coastal beaches, river port infrastructure, and interior agricultural lands.
