Santarém Water Encounters Tour

Water Encounters Santarem Water Encounters Santarem is the merging of two giants with an intriguing image and one of the most beautiful and surprising event of the nature between the Amazon River and Tapajos Rivers known as “Encounter of the waters in Santarem” This spectacle can be observed daily from a certain distance, including from the riverfront of Santarem. However, to contemplate more properly, it is better to get very close to observe, as the scenery is really stunning, so much so that some of our clients lose control (in a good way, of course) and even jump in the water to feel their skin. The difference between the two rivers. In one of these opportunities, we heard that “It is simply a wonderful sensation, because the water in the Amazon is denser, as if it is heavier and hotter, whereas the Tapajos water is lighter and cooler”.
