Vitória is the capital of the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo, in the Southeast Region of the country. Located at 20º19'09' south latitude and 40º20'50' west longitude, Vitória borders the municipality of Serra to the north, Vila Velha to the south, the Atlantic Ocean to the east and Cariacica to the west. It is one of the three island capitals of Brazil, whose respective metropolitan regions cover entirely islands located off the Brazilian coast along the Atlantic Ocean, with most of the municipality located on Vitória Island.
With a population of about 340,000 inhabitants, according to 2024 estimates of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the city is the fourth most populous in the state (behind the neighbouring municipalities of its metropolitan region: Vila Velha, Serra and Cariacica) and forms part of a metropolis called Greater Vitória, with about 2 million inhabitants. Vitória is surrounded by Vitória Bay and is a fluviomarine island, but another 34 islands and a continental portion are also part of the municipality, making up 97 km². Of the total area, 46 km² is within the urban perimeter. Originally there were 50 islands, many of which were joined to the larger island through land reclamation.
