Vilamoura Marina

Vilamoura, with its interesting archaeological ruins, was once an important Roman fishing centre. Today, tourists flock to the area thanks to the sandy beaches and year-round sunny weather. But Vilamoura also pulls in the yachting set and the marina here is the largest in Portugal.
Cascais Marina

Cascais has a long-established seafaring tradition dating back to the Age of Discovery. The modern marina was only built in 1999, with the more recent additions of shops, high-end bars and restaurants. The marina in Cascais is the third largest in Portugal and has hosted a number of world-class sailing events including the America’s Cup World Series 2011 and the ISAF World Sailing Championship 2007.
