Xingu on Etelä-Amerikassa olevan Amazon-joen sivujoki Brasiliassa. Joki saa alkunsa Keski-Brasilian vuorilta ja sillä on pituutta 1 980 kilometriä. Joessa on paljon putouksia, ja se on purjehduskelpoinen vain alajuoksultaan.[1] Xingujokeen on rakenteilla suuri Belo Monten pato. Hanke on saanut paljon vastustusta.[2][3]
