Fishing near Guajará Mirim, Rondônia

Guajará-Mirim sits on the Rondônia side of the Bolivian border, right along the Rio Mamoré — one of the Amazon basin's major tributaries. The city's waterfront and the broad, calm stretches of the Mamoré draw anglers and paddlers alike, while nearby waters including the Rio Pacaás Novos, Rio Ouro Preto, and smaller igarapés extend the fishing well into surrounding várzea and forest. The Furado Jacaré, Baía Rica, Furado dos Índios, and Igarapé da Coca are local spots fished close to town, and the Rio Sotério runs through the municipality as another accessible option.
