The Mucutá River (Portuguese: Rio Mucutá) is a river in the state of Pará, Brazil. It is a tributary of the Piriá River.

The river is on the island of Marajó to the northwest of Belém in the delta region where the Amazon and Tocantins rivers empty into the Atlantic Ocean. It runs through part of the 194,868 hectares (481,530 acres) Terra Grande-Pracuúba Extractive Reserve, a sustainable use conservation unit created in 2006.[1]
