Mangaratiba, Coastal municipality in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Mangaratiba extends across 356 square kilometers of Atlantic coastline, featuring beaches, mountains, and multiple developed districts at 18 meters above sea level.

The municipality emerged as an administrative entity on November 11, 1831, developing from early colonial settlements connected to sugar production and maritime trade.

The municipality maintains strong maritime traditions through its active port operations, while local festivals celebrate the regional heritage of the Greater Rio de Janeiro area.

The central administration provides municipal services to 45,220 residents through a network of public offices located in different districts across the territory.

The port facilities handle substantial iron ore shipments destined for European markets, establishing Mangaratiba as a key export point along the Brazilian coast.
