São José de Ribamar

Introduction

In Maranhão there is a stark maritime tradition since the colonization due to the arrival of Europeans at this place. You will discover by boat some beautiful islands and visit the oyster farms. Because of the warm temperature of the water a stop to swim is well recommended. The guide will show you the best points for a stop. São José do Ribamar is a small but very religious village situated only 32 km from São Luís. Its very traditional celebrations attract people from all over Brazil. September is the month which the believers pay tribute to the guardian of the town. More than 100 thousand people go to this small colonial town to thank São José do Ribamar for the miracles realized during the year and to appreciate the 17,5 m statue of the guardian. Raposa is a fishing village situated in a mangrove region, habitat for thousands of crabs. Igarapés, dunes and the deserted beaches which complete the amazing landscape. An extra attraction is the handwork and the embroidery of this village.
