Marina
de Tróia.

Boat Rentals

Marina de Tróia sits on the Tróia Peninsula, facing the Sado Estuary and the Atlantic coast. Developed around sailing and coastal leisure, it combines a modern marina with long sandy beaches and protected dunes nearby. Ferries link the area directly to Setúbal, shaping access more than road travel. The setting is defined by water, wind, and open space rather than historic architecture. Dolphin populations in the estuary, cycling routes, and quiet off-season months are key features of the area.
