Ticket-kiosk to support boat crossings on the Mira River for better service to locals and visitors to our land.
The crossing of the Mira River dates back to the 1920s and was a service that was very much sought after by local and local populations, given the lack of a bridge that was built in 1975. Since the 1990s I have been doing this activity, always trying to overcome the natural and others to provide a good service to all our domestic and foreign visitors, with the creation of the Vincentian route this activity ceased to be seasonal for full time with interruption in the 2 winter months (December and January). Having requested the license and obtained the favorable opinion of the same, whose objective is to give a good service to all visitors and residents of Vila Nova de Milfontes and whose project aims to improve the service and frame with the new footpath on the footbridge on the river.
About the author
My name is Maria da Conceiçao Gonçalves. I am a maritimo-tourist operator on the Mira river in Vila Nova de Milfontes. I have worked in school libraries, the movie theater at ticket sales, and as a sailor on the boats that operated on the river. Since the 90's I have been doing this activity on my own and since the 1980s, I helped my father in this year-long activity. In spite of the existence of the bridge, many locals came from the south bank to sell the animals to the fair that was taking place on the promenade along the river. The boat was thus carrying the animals as well as small motorvehicles. This activity is an activity with history and has been evolving in a very positive way, our foreign and national visitors who choose to make the trail of the fishermen created by the Vincentian route, which are manifested by the good service provided by the boat and by this service is an alternative to the bridge. Despite being an economic activity, the fact that the customer leave with a smile on the face leaves me very happy and excited to continue to provide good service.
