Maués Airport (SWMW) — Maués, Amazonas

Land in the birthplace of guaraná. SWMW serves Maués, the "Land of Guaraná" in eastern Amazonas — the heart of Brazil's production of the famous Amazonian fruit. Set among rivers, lakes, and lush plantations along the Maués-Açu River, this riverside town is as spirited as its most celebrated export, and its airport is the quickest way in.

A bit of history

Just a couple of kilometers from the town center, Maués sits deep in the eastern reaches of Amazonas, laced with winding rivers and island channels.
