Frequently asked questions

Questions about this crossing

What is the address of Marina Porto Real - Conceição de Jacareí?

Rod. Rio-Santos, KM 454 – Conceição de Jacareí, Mangaratiba – RJ, 23860-000

The boat leaves from the Condomínio Porto Real pier.

What happens if I miss the boat?

If you are not at the pier at the scheduled time, the departure is treated as a no-show and the ticket is not refunded. We always recommend arriving early. If you are unexpectedly delayed, contact us on WhatsApp as soon as you can.

Is the crossing to Ilha Grande safe? Does the boat run in the rain?

Yes. Flexboats are certified by the Brazilian Navy, carry life jackets for every passenger and are operated by experienced sailors. They have a fibreglass hull and inflatable sides, which give stability and safety. They run normally in the rain. In extreme sea conditions, the departure is cancelled for safety and you will be notified immediately.

What is the difference between the ferry and the Flexboat?

The public ferry leaves from Mangaratiba and is a cheaper option, but much slower (about 1h30 at sea), sails in open / rough sea (many people feel seasick during the crossing) and runs only once a day. The speedboats (Flexboat) make the trip in a third of the time, have more departure times and allow online booking with a guaranteed seat.

They are also extremely safe, with a fibreglass hull and inflatable sides.

Do I need to book the crossing in advance?

Yes, always. On public holidays, weekends and in high season, we recommend booking even further ahead. Each boat has a limited number of seats per departure, and they do sell out. When you book online, you get your confirmation right away, then the voucher by e-mail, and you just show it at the pier.

Is there parking nearby?

Yes, Condomínio Porto Real has covered parking where you can leave your car. Book in advance. Payment is per day.
