Experience report: This is a descriptive experience report, obtained during the follow-up of all logistics and reporting of a Basic Fluvial Health Unit in Amazonas, between December 2017 and February 2020. The results that advent of the unit brought to the population include: greater coverage of cytopathological examinations of women in the recommended age range between 25 to 64 years, greater vaccination coverage of the population that lives more isolated, guarantee of dental care for those who never had access to this service, laboratory tests for immediate diagnosis, in addition to the intensification of prevention services, through educational lectures.

The operational strategy of the UBS Fluvial brought great advances through the implementation of the Ministry of Health's programs, in this sense, strengthening and advancing in the actions of the rural area is fundamental for the coverage of these peoples.
