Nazare : Profile

Location

This is a relatively new harbour. The town lies about 50nm south of Figueira da Foz. It is an attractive destination with fine sandy beaches and an interesting old town up on the cliff which is reached by a funicular railway.

Position 39°35.2'N,9°04.4'W.

Clearance

Nazare may not yet have the single form system but there is a GNR-Brigada Fiscal office in the same building as the marina office and normally no other officials need be seen.

Docking

This harbour has all-weather access and very good shelter.

Visitors have a choice of using the marina or yacht club. At the marina (in the SW corner of the harbour), arriving yachts should berth on the outer pontoons where they will be met and directed to a berth.

There is no anchoring in the outer harbour. Berthing facilities are 1.5 miles south of the town.

Port control VHF channel 11 or 16
