Saco do Cabral is a tidal bay and wetland area located within the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre, Brazil. It forms part of the complex hydrological system of the Jacuí Delta and the Gravataí River wetlands. Historically, this area was a focal point for urban planning and flood management projects aimed at controlling inundation in Porto Alegre's northern industrial suburbs. The bay is connected to the Gravataí River via a channel, and its waters are influenced by both riverine inputs and tidal movements, creating a brackish estuarine environment rich in nutrients and biological diversity.
