Very nice and sheltered harbor with helpful and friendly staff who speak fluent English and French. Short distance to a fantastic beach and a charming, small town. Well worth a stop

Enkel innseiling. Sliten havn med det absolutt nødvendigste. Man ligger longside på lave flytebrygger. Hyggelig personale. Havnen ligger rett ved en liten landsby

Easy approach, good holding. Look out for fishing buoys in the water. Lots of swells - we ended up entering the harbor in the middle of the night, even with very little wind.

Easy approach, sheltered harbor, somewhat on the outskirts of the city. Call +34 986 447 441 for berth, or channel 7.

Lun og god havn, du blir anvist plass i enkeltbåser med god plass. Rett ved byen og gamlebyen- vel verdt et besøk.
Pass på ved innseling- leden er trafikkert og på utsiden er det mange garn og høy fiskeaktivitet.

Very nice, but expensive marina with all facilities. Friendly staff. Easy navigation inside the harbour, even with strong winds on the way in. The marina is located right by the town with a large selection of restaurants and shops - the only downside is that it's a small kilometre walk to a supermarket if you need to stock up on food.

This is a small, private marina. It is not possible to reserve berths, but if one of the regular members is 'out', you can use their berth. There is one fourth berth where one can stay for up to 4 hours. The harbor is located approximately 2.5 km from the town.

Nice and open natural harbor located just outside the town of Sesimbra. Quite weather-exposed, but sheltered with the 'right' wind. No obvious places to dock the dinghy if you want to go into town, but we docked it by the fortress on the beach, where there was a bolt to secure it to.
Sesimbra is a small fishing village with several pleasant restaurants and small shops, not much selection in large supermarkets, but small shops for the necessities. Nice beaches

Nice and sheltered harbor. One can either dock in double berths or alongside. The harbor staff assists with mooring and assigns a place upon arrival. Call them, or hail on channel 9.
Nice shower, washing, and toilet facilities that seem newly renovated.
The harbor is not far from the town and right next to a nice beach where one can also anchor in a natural harbor.

Good space, easy access, and a sheltered natural harbor. Some noise at night from fishing boats and general boat traffic.
