The main part of the Capacete Island in the Xingu River, by the town of Altamira.

The name means "Helmet" as used by police.

The polygon does not include the periodically flooded beach but does include the flood plain in the middle of the island.

The narrow island just to southeast may be considered part of Capacete Island.
