It takes place as a strategy of survival for the reproduction of the craft as a fisherman social category, in response to the shortage of fish, water pollution and the conflicts between artisanal fisheries and industry. In that study, seeks to identify the different types of mobility space held by artisanal fishermen community of Cubatão, located in the District Icoaraci. Fishermen carry out fishing in various scales. As strategic movable keep up, and ensure their reproduction, the fisherman uses the partnership to join the crew composition and distribution of fishery product. For simple efetivam technology have a day of intense work to escape the competitiveness with the fishing industry. How can not accumulate capital to remain low socio-economic levels. If you do not change the condition of the fisheries sector, the situation does not alter the fisherman, leading him to repeatedly perform the mobility, and even migration to other locations that can deliver the fishing, or change of occupancy.
