Getting There By Water
The Port of Lisbon (website: www.portodelisboa.com/ingles/pg-alcan.html ), located in the south of the city, along the River Tagus, is becoming an increasingly important stop on the international cruise ship circuit. Cruise ships call at Alcântara Dock, Rocha do Conde de Óbidos and Santa Apolónia. There are five marinas that receive private boats and provide mooring – Bom Sucesso, Belém, Santo Amaro, Alcântara and Olivais. Information is available from the Gestão da Náutica de Recreio (tel: (21) 392 2011; fax: (21) 392 2038). Facilities at Alcântara include conference and event space, parking and various nightlife venues.
Ferry services: There are no long-distance ferries (see Getting Around for cross-river services).
Transport to the city: Tram, bus and rail services all run along the riverfront.
