Livin Barca is a Torreira, Aveiro–based outdoor recreation and accommodation provider focused on water sports, boat experiences, and sustainable stays.
The company offers guided and boat-supported activities including Hydro Foil, Windsurf, SUP, Wakeboard, and motor boat tours, with scheduling adapted to local tide conditions. Boat rides include scenic canal cruises, sunrise trips, and a dedicated Passeio de barco e degustação de Ostras combining a serene ride with an oyster tasting lunch.
For guests seeking multi-day stays, Livin Barca operates three coastal houses—Casa do Jardim, Casa da Horta, and Casa da Ria—each featuring coastal views of the Ria de Aveiro, private sunlit decks, communal outdoor fireplaces, and energy-efficient amenities. Casa da Ria sits beside a protected natural reserve and offers direct access to pine forest walks and a secluded beach. Casa da Horta provides flexible sleeping arrangements and a fully equipped kitchen. Local art and sustainable living practices are integrated across properties.
Safety and responsiveness are built into the activity structure: water sports are supported by a boat to assist riders, and tide-dependent scheduling allows safer, tailored outings. The business emphasizes low-impact tourism and connection to the Ria de Aveiro landscape, highlighting wildlife encounters such as resident flamingos during boat trips. Livin Barca’s combination of sheltered accommodations, multiple water-sport options, and tide-aware logistics makes it a practical choice for visitors seeking active, nature-focused experiences in the Aveiro region. Booking and availability reflect tidal cycles and local conditions, with clear information provided at time of reservation to ensure appropriate planning and safety.
