Brazil: Pará state: sandy beaches of the Island of Marajó in the mouth of the Amazon river face the Atlantic Ocean. Mangrove trees with stilted roots are a feature of this extradordinary estuary. The roots are usually covered by rising tides and provide a unique habitat for many marine life such as algae and crabs.
