Sailing 360º

Sailing 360º is a boat proposal in Vila Nova de Gaia offering river trips on the Douro with different vessel types. The fleet includes sailboats, yachts, and restored wooden boats that depart from Douro Marina and take passengers on relaxed journeys.

The Douro has been a lifeline for Porto for centuries, enabling trade and transport while shaping the wine industry along its banks. Boat trips on this historic river now offer a modern way to experience this vital waterway.

The name "Sailing 360º" refers to the complete view of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia from the water. Local crew members share stories about how the river has shaped life in the region, from trade routes to how people have lived along its banks for generations.

The marina is easy to reach and has parking nearby, or visitors can walk from nearby areas of Vila Nova de Gaia or Porto. The boats are well-maintained and stable, and the crew explains conditions and safety rules before each trip.

The company offers inclusive boat trips accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. The restored wooden boats in the fleet look like they come from another era, creating a special feeling while traveling on the river.
