Sarameriza is a small fluvial port in the department of Loreto. Its place is strategic since it is immediately after the Pongo de Manseriche and therefore it is the first navigable point on the Marañón River on the way to the Amazon River and therefore the city of Iquitos and the border with Brazil. Sarameriza is situated 7 km south of Marañón River.
