⛴️Ferry to Enxude and Bubaque⛴️

We offer a ferry service to the Bijagós Archipelago from Bissau for the transport of passengers and goods all year round, as a complement to the speedboat service. We connect the two main routes of the archipelago: Bissau-Bubaque and Bissau-Enxudé, the latter being key for those traveling to Bolama, Buba and other southern cities.

In the archipelago, navigation remains one of the biggest challenges: many people still rely on traditional canoes without adequate safety conditions, causing shipwrecks, deaths and disappearances every year. Our ferry was born precisely to offer a reliable and safe alternative, responding to the real needs of the population.

It is an economical, accessible and specially designed service for local communities, but with international quality standards in terms of safety, punctuality and comfort, guaranteeing a stable connection between the islands and the mainland.
