This is if the sea has navigability and only in that case. This Barra do Douro scenario is especially beautiful at sunset, a moment that I of course recommend. On the way, we'll stop to take the required photos. And it's time to come back to the harbor in shelter, hoping to have transformed these 2 hours into an unforgettable moment and passed on to you the love that I feel for this river. Other notes Since we will be sailing towards the ocean, it is recommended to bring a light jacket or cardboard, as it usually gets a little colder by the sea.
