Santana, Port municipality in Amapá, Brazil
Santana extends across 1,541 square kilometers along the Amazon River, functioning as a major transportation center near the equator in northern Brazil.
The settlement originated in 1753 on Ilha de Santana in the Amazon River, later developing into a municipality following manganese discoveries in the 1950s.
The six districts of Santana maintain distinct neighborhood identities through local festivals, music performances, and traditional fishing practices throughout the year.
The Port of Santana connects the region to international maritime routes, with regular ferry services operating between the city and other Amazon destinations.
The municipality houses Brazil's largest ferry terminal, measuring 115 meters in length, facilitating transportation between Santana and Belém since 2020.
