After BOSSA in Manaus/Brazil we took a very enjoyable boat trip down the Amazon, to Santarém and particularly Alter do Chão, a ridiculously amazing island paradise with glaring white sand in the middle of the jungle:
The town is located on the Tapajós River:
Up the river you find the Tapajós National Forest:
From there we went on to São Luís, a beautiful old colonial town:
A windy and wet sailing catamaran ride from São Luís you find Alcântara, another old colonial town, now partly in ruins and deserted:
