Marajó Archipelago Environmental Protection Area

Brazil

The Marajó Archipelago Environmental Protection Area (Portuguese: Área de Proteção Ambiental Arquipélago do Marajó) is an environmental protection area in the state of Pará, Brazil. It protects the Marajó Archipelago, made up of marine fluvial islands in the area where the Amazon and Tocantins rivers converge and flow into the Atlantic, and covers almost 60,000 square kilometres (23,000 sq mi). The area is inhabited, but human activities are limited to some extent to reduce ecological damage.
