Lisbon Sailing Adventure: Live Aboard Yacht Tours to Sesimbra, Troia, Algarve and Madeira
Set sail from the heart of Lisbon and discover Portugal's coastline from the deck of a private yacht.
A private yacht charter from Lisbon offers one of the most immersive ways to experience the Portuguese coast, combining five-star comfort with open-sea freedom. Guests board at the iconic Doca de Belem, just steps from the Discoveries Monument, and set course for some of the country's most celebrated destinations.
Each guest enjoys a private cabin, and all meals are freshly prepared on board by a dedicated crew chef using seasonal Portuguese ingredients. Vegetarian and special dietary requirements are accommodated with advance notice, ensuring every guest is well looked after throughout the voyage.
Whether travelling with friends, family, or solo, the live-aboard format creates a shared rhythm unlike any land-based holiday. Days unfold at sea, with dolphins frequently appearing alongside the hull and anchorages chosen for their calm waters and scenic surroundings.
Destinations vary according to the duration of your voyage. Shorter trips explore the sheltered bay of Sesimbra or the pristine peninsula of Troia, while longer itineraries can reach the dramatic coastline of the Algarve or even the open-ocean crossing to Madeira.
