What to Know About Santa Cruz

Key Facts

Santa Cruz is a district located in the Alto Amazonas province within the Loreto region of Peru. Situated in the northeastern part of Peru, this district lies deep within the Amazon rainforest basin, characterized by its tropical climate, dense vegetation, and extensive river systems that form the lifeblood of the region. As part of the world's largest tropical rainforest, Santa Cruz experiences high humidity and significant rainfall throughout the year, supporting incredible biodiversity including numerous species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects found nowhere else on Earth. The district covers approximately 4,500 square kilometers of primarily forested territory, with a population of around 8,000-10,000 residents who are predominantly engaged in subsistence agriculture, fishing, and small-scale commerce along the river networks. Santa Cruz is administratively divided into several smaller populated centers and communities that are connected primarily by waterways rather than roads, reflecting the Amazonian geography where rivers serve as the main transportation corridors. The district's economy relies heavily on the sustainable use of forest resources, with some communities practicing agroforestry and others involved in ecotourism initiatives that showcase the region's natural wonders.
