Cametá, Municipality on Tocantins River in Pará, Brazil.
Cametá is a municipality on the banks of the Tocantins River in Pará, located roughly 230 kilometers from Belém. Its streets slope gently toward the water, where the town spreads across nearly flat terrain at minimal elevation.
The settlement started in 1635 as a Portuguese colonial post and became an administrative center for the region. It served as a key trading hub where goods moved along the river network.
Local residents maintain traditions through regional music performances and riverine cuisine preparation during community gatherings that showcase northern Brazilian customs.
The town connects to major northern Brazilian cities by river transport on the Tocantins, with regular boat services for passengers and cargo. The flat terrain makes it easy to navigate on foot, while proximity to the water is a constant feature of daily life.
The meeting of multiple river systems creates a network of water channels that residents use for daily trips and fishing. These waterways are so woven into life that they shape how people move through and around the town.
