Cabrobó

Cabrobó is a municipality in northeastern Brazil located in Pernambuco state, spanning a sizable area with distinct geographic features. The region is shaped by its terrain and the presence of a major river system.

The municipality gained its administrative status in 1928, marking a key shift in how Pernambuco state was organized. This change established Cabrobó as an independent administrative unit in the region.

The Truká people live on the Ilha da Assunção islands and keep their ancestral traditions alive in daily life. Their presence shapes how the community connects to the land and river.

The municipality offers basic services related to agriculture, education, health, and local infrastructure for visitors and residents. The dry season provides the easiest access to explore the area and its surroundings.

The São Francisco River creates natural island chains along the southern border with striking landscape formations. These waterways produce rare geographic patterns within the semi-arid region.
