Recently due to circumstances we had to go into Doce de Recreio. Really friendly and helpfull staff, good facilities and perfect near the city center. They told us they always have one spot available in case of emergency or short stay. Max length 16m. We anchored in front of ‘Praia da Arbaquel’. In summertime there are moorings here which you can rent from the local sailingclub: 00351-265 523 915. When at anchor/mooring you can leave you dinghy in their harbor, 20mins sailing. Be aware when anchoring that the ground can be foul and rocky. It is however a good protection from Northerlies. Anchoring behind the peninsula of Troia has very good holding but almost at all times exposed. Facilities on the peninsula are limited but there’s a big ferry going every half hour to Setubal (the smaller ferry from Troia marina is more expensive).
