Cujupe, Ferry terminal in Alcântara, Brazil
Cujupe is a ferry terminal in Alcântara serving as a primary connection point across the Baía de São Marcos. The facility features waiting areas, ticket counters, and boat docking zones organized to handle daily passenger traffic.
The terminal was established to strengthen transportation links across Maranhão state and improve connections between coastal communities. It became an important point in regional maritime commerce and passenger movement.
The terminal brings together local merchants, fishermen, and travelers in daily interaction, reflecting how maritime life shapes the region. You can observe the working rhythm of the port and the connections that bind communities across the water.
The terminal operates regularly throughout the day with frequent ferry departures connecting the two sides of the bay. It is best to arrive early, especially during peak travel times, to avoid long waiting periods.
The location faces Cajual Island and provides a strategic gateway to important regional waterways for commercial and economic activity. This positioning makes it a key junction for goods and people moving through the wider water system.
