Where she lies
Lisbon, Portugal
Fast Atlantic miles from the Tagus
Lisbon is a performance sailor's launchpad: reliable summer nortada winds, the vast Tagus estuary to work up in, and the open Atlantic beyond Cascais for the downwind passages a Pogo lives for. Base here and the Portuguese coast, the Berlengas and the hop to Madeira all open up, with one of Europe's great cities behind the marina.
-
Cascais & the Estoril coastA short reach to the resort town and Guincho's surf.
-
Belem & the riverfrontAge-of-Discovery monuments right on the Tagus.
-
Berlengas archipelagoWild island anchorage up the coast off Peniche.
-
Time Out MarketLisbon's best kitchens under one roof near the water.
-
Cervejaria RamiroThe city's temple to shellfish.
The summer nortada blows fresh from the north — glorious downwind sailing down the coast, a beat to come home. The Tagus estuary is big and tidal with commercial traffic; Cascais gives shelter at the mouth, and the coast south to the Algarve or out to Madeira is the natural playground.
