About the Activity

What to Expect

Join us for a magnificent tour along the coast of Porto. Starting from the iconic Douro Marina, we will sail towards the mouth of the Douro River. As we glide through the serene waters, you can relax and unwind, surrounded by the natural beauty of the coastline. Our sailboat offers a perfect blend of comfort and adventure, with protected sun areas to bask in the sun or find shade as you prefer. You can enjoy a welcome drink and savour some snacks, with the soothing background of music enhancing your experience.

Our first highlight is the Luiz Bridge, a stunning architectural marvel that connects Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. As we continue, you will witness the confluence of the Douro River with the Atlantic Ocean, a sight that beautifully captures the merging of river and sea. The mouth of the Douro River is an ideal spot to take in the panoramic views of Porto's coastline, offering fantastic photo opportunities.

Throughout the trip, you will have ample time to enjoy the natural elements and the tranquil ambiance of the sea. The sailboat is equipped with all the amenities you need for a comfortable trip, including music to set the perfect mood. This tour is ideal for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in the serene coastal scenery.

We had a wonderful tour on the sailingboat with captain Ricardo. Everything was perfect. We had time to relax, good drinks and snacks as well as interesting information. For the windy section we got blankets. All in all we were very happy. We are coming back.
