Private Fishing Experience on the Waters of Lisbon
Cast your line at the finest spots the Tagus and Atlantic coast have to offer, guided by local experts who know the waters inside out.
This private fishing tour in Lisbon places you and your group of up to ten aboard a dedicated vessel, setting out from the iconic Doca de Belem under the shadow of the Discoveries Monument. Whether you are a first-time angler or a seasoned fisher, the experience is tailored to your level and expectations.
Your guide brings local knowledge of the most productive fishing grounds, backed by modern fish-detection equipment to locate schools of larger fish. All bait, tackle, and the required fishing license are included, so there is nothing to prepare beyond showing up ready to enjoy the river and the open coast.
Children are welcome on board and will be provided with a life jacket. The half-day option fits perfectly into a full day of Lisbon sightseeing, while the full-day format allows for a more relaxed and complete outing with lunch and drinks served on the water.
