Tartarugalzinho became a municipality in 1987, and part of its history is linked to travel along the BR-156 highway. The town’s position on this road encouraged trade and the provision of food, fuel and other services for residents and travellers. This role as a stopping point coexists with local life tied to rural production and waterways.

Cattle and buffalo raising, cassava and orange cultivation, and artisanal fishing are important features of the municipal economy. The waterfront and community spaces offer ways to discover a town that also serves as a meeting place for its surroundings. Beyond a roadside stop, the municipality reveals relationships between farm work, trade and the natural landscapes of inland Amapá.
