Manaus Travel Guide
Brazil
Manaus is a major Brazilian city of 2,375,636 people, set in the Amazon region on the Rio Negro. It is an important urban base for exploring this part of Brazil, with a tropical climate and a setting shaped by the surrounding rainforest and waterways.
Most visitors arrive via Manaus International Airport, Eduardo Gomes (MAO), or Manaus AB (PLL). For time by the water, Moon Beach and Praia de Ponta Negra are both 10.8 kilometres from the city, and both are river beaches on the Rio Negro rather than Atlantic seaside beaches.
