Alter do Chão
Brazil, Brazil
Alter do Chão is a small district of the city of Santarém in Pará state, northern Brazil, located on the banks of the Tapajós River in the heart of the Amazon region.
It is famous for its wide stretches of white‑sand river beaches that appear along the Tapajós during the low‑water season from about August to January, earning it nicknames such as the “Brazilian Caribbean” and the “most beautiful freshwater beach in the world” in some travel reports.
The area is a popular ecotourism destination where visitors combine relaxed beach time with boat trips, canoeing through flooded forests, wildlife watching, and hikes into surrounding Amazon jungle trails, often using the nearby Ilha do Amor as a base for day trips and overnight stays.
