Porto Santana

Porto Santana, Commercial port in Santana, Brazil

Porto Santana is an estuarine port in Santana, Amapá, at the mouth of the Amazon near the Rio Matapi and opposite Ilha de Santana. Its Cais A runs 200 m with 12 m depth and a Panamax berth; Cais B is 150 m long with 11 m depth. A 16,500 m² container yard holds 900 TEUs, beside a 2,800 m² warehouse and a 1,500 m² shed.

The port was built starting in 1980 and opened in 1982 to support cargo transport between Amapá state and Marajó Island. This establishment made it a key hub for developing the Amazon region.

The port links regional traders and riverside communities along the Amazon, enabling commerce between remote settlements and international markets. This connection shapes daily life in the area and makes the facility a vital hub for local economic activity.

The port lies on the Canal de Santana, the northern arm of the Amazon, 3 km from Santana centre and 18 km from Macapá. Road access is via AP-010 or Rua Cláudio Lúcio Monteiro in the Novo Horizonte district; the Estrada de Ferro Amapá terminal is 2 km away. The access channel is 500–800 m wide with an operational depth of 12 m.

The port lies at the mouth of the Rio Matapi where it meets the Amazon, opposite Ilha de Santana. Its natural Santana channel, the northern arm of the Amazon, is 500 to 800 metres wide with an operating depth of 12 metres. The private Anglo Ferrous terminal, with 270 metres of quay and 12 metres of draught, ships iron ore.
