barcas, or ferries in english, are not only another form of transportation that helps cross a body of water, but also it is at times a relaxing, fresh-air ride with scenic views of a city - in rio de janeiro, praça xv is the main waterway station where ferries dock and await for passengers to embark on their journey. daily trips are made to carioca neighborhoods that can be easily accessed through aquatic transportation, such as the island of paquetá and the district of cocotá in ilha do governador - they are also commonly used as an alternative for rides to and from to the nearby city of niterói, home to two stations known as praça arariboia and charitas. grupo ccr is the company that operates the ferries found in the municipalities of rio de janeiro, niterói, and angra dos reis - trips to and from ilha grande, can only be accessed from angra dos reis - tickets are available for sale at the waterway stations - cariocas and residents to the city that have a bilhete único card can utilize their passes here. |
