Marabá stands where the Itacaiúnas river meets the Tocantins in southeastern Pará, on the edge of the Amazon. It grew as a Brazil nut trading post and is now the hub of the Carajás mining region, spread across several separate nuclei divided by the rivers.
The riverfront of the old town is the most atmospheric area, and in the dry season sandbanks emerge in the Tocantins as river beaches. The Carajás National Forest and its mountains, home to one of the world's largest iron ore deposits, lie to the southwest.
Taxis, mototaxis and buses connect the city's scattered districts, and bridges link the river banks. The Trans-Amazonian Highway passes through, and flights connect to Belém and Brasília.
The drier months in the middle of the year, roughly June to November, are best, when the river beaches appear and roads are easier. The wet season brings heavy rain and high rivers, and it is hot and humid year-round.
Brazil uses the BRL, calling code +55.
Brazil uses the real, and Portuguese is the language, with little English spoken. The instant payment system Pix is used for almost everything, and a relaxed, friendly manner goes a long way.
