Marina do Freixo

Marina do Freixo is a port and water sports center on the Douro River in Porto with modern docking facilities for various types of boats. The facility provides maintenance services, boat rentals, and equipment for rowing and stand-up paddleboarding.

The Douro River has been Portugal's main trade and shipping route since medieval times, and this section played a central role in that maritime history. Today's marina preserves this connection to the region's waterborne past while embracing modern water sports activities.

The waterfront serves as a gathering point where water enthusiasts and boaters from the region come together to train and share their passion for the water. The sailors and rowers who frequent the place shape it as a living center of local water sports culture.

The site sits directly on the river and is easily accessible by public transport, especially using the Campanhã station stop. The best time to visit is during daylight when activities are most visible and conditions are ideal for water activities.

The site preserves a rare balance where industrial ships and cargo operations work directly alongside recreational boaters and athletes. This mix allows visitors to observe daily commercial operations while also experiencing water sports adventures.
