What to expect
This private sailing experience is the perfect choice for those who want to feel the unique sensation of using only the wind to move and experience the thrill of the boat gliding over the water.
It will be 2.5 hours during which you'll have the opportunity to participate in maneuvers and steer a small sailboat, while enjoying the stunning landscapes of the riverside areas of Vila Nova de Gaia and Porto.
After an explanation on how to maneuver the boat and safety instructions to consider, we will sail towards the city center to explore the highlights both cities have to offer.
Although far from the city center, you will be able to recognize several places of interest in both cities: from the churches adorned with tiles, to the domes of the cathedrals, to the palm trees in the gardens of the Crystal Palace. In the riverside area, where the breeze and the gentle waves are, it is the perfect moment to photograph the D. Louis I Bridge, the Rabelo boats, and the Serra do Pilar. Heading back to the marina and towards the Atlantic Ocean, we’ll pass by Foz do Douro area and the Natural Reserve
