Port of Manaus

The Port of Manaus (UN/LOCODE: BRMAO) constitutes a pivotal maritime node within Brazil's Amazonas region, strategically situated at coordinates -3.1190275 latitude and -60.0217314 longitude along the vital Amazon River navigation system. Operating under the Europe/Stockholm timezone, this port serves as the primary maritime gateway for northern Brazil's extensive Amazon basin territory, facilitating the transit of bulk commodities including iron ore, bauxite, agricultural products, and manufactured goods between the interior rainforest region and coastal shipping networks. Its strategic location enables critical supply chain connectivity for the economically significant Amazonas state, supporting major industrial complexes and providing essential logistics infrastructure for one of Brazil's most resource-rich yet geographically isolated administrative divisions.
