Royal Marine is a Lisbon-based boat operator offering private catamaran charters and themed experiences on the River Tejo and along the Cascais coast. Operating from Lisboa, Royal Marine presents a diverse program of trips that includes sunset cruises, cultural tours, family days, party charters, romantic getaways and seasonal Réveillon celebrations.
Guests can choose from named vessels and concepts such as Pérola, XUXU and SeaBar, each presenting curated itineraries and on-board amenities. Typical inclusions vary by trip and may include tasting platters, bottles of wine or sparkling wine, snacks, BBQs, swimming stops, guided commentary from a local guide (on cultural departures from Doca de Belém), DJs for party experiences, live Fado performances, and onboard massage services for Relax Sunday.
Royal Marine accommodates a range of group sizes, including a double catamaran option for up to 28 passengers, and offers private rentals for tailored itineraries. Popular trip formats feature 2-hour cultural or romantic cruises, 3–4 hour party and evening tours, and longer 5–6 hour family excursions to Cascais with BBQ and water-activity stops. Many experiences emphasize local landmarks — Torre de Belém, Praça do Comércio and the 25th of April Bridge — and combine sightseeing with food, drink and leisure.
All offerings are presented as private or chartered experiences from Lisbon, designed for celebrations, family days, couples and small groups seeking an on-water perspective of the city and coast.
