Mazagão, Municipality in southern Amapá, Brazil.
Mazagão extends across 13,131 square kilometers in Amapá state, containing three districts: Mazagão town, Carvão, and Mazagão Velho.
The municipality originated from Portuguese settlers who relocated from North African Mazagão in 1769, establishing Nova Mazagão in 1773.
The Festival of São Tiago takes place annually from July 16 to 28, featuring traditional reenactments of conflicts between Moors and Christians.
Travelers can reach Mazagão through the AP-010 road connecting from Santana and Macapá, with frequent bus services available.
The Rio Cajari Extractive Reserve covers 44 percent of the municipality, supporting local communities through Brazil nut harvesting and rubber production.
