ROBINSON ISLAND

          Come spend a few days on a island paradise reminiscent of that of Robinson Crusoe in the middle of the Amazon Jungle. It is located in the Arquipélago das Anavilhanas (an ecological reserve) in the Rio Negro, a few hours from Manaus. Relax in the shade of palm trees on a white sand beach. You may transform yourself, for a few days, into Robinson Crusoe and Friday.

          The Arquipélago das Anavilhanas is the largest fluvial archipelago in the world. It’s many long narrow island transform the Rio Negro into a labyrinth of lakes, channels and small creeks.

          All of the islands are uninhabited because the water comes up to the top of the trees in the rainy season. During the dry season, from September to December, wide sandy beaches mark the borders of the island.
