Travel Guide Aruanã

The Araguaia River is one of the most fishy areas in the world. In Aruana, it is possible to rent a boat in the dry season, from May to September, with a skipper (the course is dangerous) and go up along the beautiful banks of the river, whose beaches shelter the huts set up by the Indians. After a week, we reach the river island of Bananal, the largest in the world with a length of 340 km and a width of 70 km.The Carajas and Javaes Indians live there as a reserve. The authorization of FUNAI, in Brasília, is necessary to enter in contact with them. There are hotels in Aruanà and Santa Isabel and it is also possible to camp
