Lisboa, the vibrant capital of Portugal, unfolds along the banks of the Rio Tejo, a river steeped in history and lined with cityscapes that blend old-world charm and modern energy.

As the catamaran glides over the calm waters of the Rio Tejo, passengers receive a warm welcome with drinks and snacks, setting the tone for a peaceful yet engaging voyage. Spacious areas, including sunbathing nets perfect for soaking up the mild Portuguese sun and shaded lounges offering respite from the heat, make it easy to settle in and enjoy the panoramic views. From the ancient fortress of Belém to the iconic 25 de Abril Bridge, the cruise charts a route past landmarks that mark Lisbon’s rich maritime heritage.
SeaVibes stands out in Lisboa’s outdoor adventure scene by marrying a leisurely, private sailing experience with the city’s bustling waterfront culture.
