Barra Grande relocation guide
Getting around Barra Grande
Choose the seller and the direction before choosing a departure time.

The short answer
The Camamu crossing is a practical part of living in Barra Grande. Two published booking options have different prices, child policies and timetables. Keep their names attached to every detail. A boat ticket also leaves a road connection on the Camamu side, so allow room for delays rather than building a flight connection around the advertised crossing time alone.
- Camamu Adventure and the association are separate services.
- Child ages and booking conditions differ.
- Confirm the last usable sailing for your direction.
Two published crossing options
| Seller and service | Published fare | Published duration and child rule |
|---|---|---|
| Camamu Adventure | US$15.03 per person each wayBRL 75 | About 40 minutes. Children up to two years free. |
| Maraú Travel selling the association service | US$12.03 normal fare each wayBRL 60 | About 35 minutes. Children age five or younger free. |
Maraú Travel explicitly says it is an authorized reseller and does not operate the association boats. Its booking page requires at least two hours of lead time. It permits changes or cancellation until 30 minutes before departure, while a no-show loses the value. Check the terms for your purchase.1

Camamu Adventure has an hourly 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. selector. Its separate office FAQ says Monday through Saturday, 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays and holidays, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Ask for the actual sailing before relying on a selector entry. Intermediate stops and weather can change the trip.4,

Camamu Adventure recommends the boat when the peninsula dirt road is difficult. Denada advises against a nighttime BR-030 arrival. These are operator warnings, not a current closure or proof that every trip requires a 4 x 4. Ask about the same-day road and weather conditions.2,
Use the arrival checklist to keep the first night flexible. Households with children should compare the family arrangements before booking.
Questions people ask
Are the two published fares for the same operator?
No. Camamu Adventure publishes US$15.03 (BRL 75). Maraú Travel sells association tickets at US$12.03 (BRL 60). Keep the seller, terms and child policy attached to the fare.
Is a five-year-old free on both options?
The association booking page says children five or younger travel free. Camamu Adventure says up to two years. Confirm the child fare with your chosen seller.
Can I depend on a 6:10 a.m. Sunday return?
The association direction table lists it, but the same page has a broad no-6-a.m.-Sunday note. Confirm the selected return directly before planning around it.
Does a boat ticket guarantee an airport connection?
No. Published crossing times are approximate. Confirm the road transfer, sailing and connection margin together, including what happens if weather changes the trip.
