Caviana, River island in Marajo Archipelago, Brazil.
Caviana Island spans 5,000 square kilometers in the Amazon River delta, featuring lowlands and wetlands influenced by river and ocean tides.
The island formed through centuries of sediment deposits from the Amazon River, creating a substantial landmass at the river's mouth.
Local communities in Caviana Island maintain traditional fishing practices and river navigation techniques passed down through generations.
Access to Caviana Island requires boat transportation from Para state ports, with limited infrastructure and accommodation options available.
The meeting of Amazon River waters with Atlantic Ocean tides near Caviana creates standing waves known as pororoca.
