More notes about the Marina

Troia Marina lies on the northernmost tip of the Troia Pensinula, two miles S of the port of Setubal on the W coast of Portugal. The marina, which is on the S bank of the River Sado, offers a total of 187 berths for yachts of up to 18 metres and maximum draft of 4.0 metres.

Marina radio contact

Call Troia Marina on VHF channel 09 or 16.

Navigation/Approach

From the north: The coast should be given a clearance of at least 0.5 mile to avoid Cabo de Ares and its off-lying rock From the south: - The entrance to the estuary is about 35 miles from Cabo de Sines on a course of 355º. Although the entrance channel is narrow, it is well buoyed. However, entry can become awkward on the ebb, especially if there is an onshore wind. It is best entered in fine weather and on the flood tide. Enter the channel between buoys number 1 and 2 on a course of 040º. Stay in the buoyed channel favouring the N side when approaching Forte de Santiago do Outao. Leave the W cardinal mark off the Troia peninsula to starboard before heading E towards Troia marina, which lies on the N side of the peninsula.

Note: there are heavy seas on the ebb with strong SW winds. The ebb can often run up to 3-4 knots at springs. Be alert for ferries and commercial traffic leaving Setubal.

Berthing assistance may be provided by calling in advance on VHF channel 09. Yachts berth stern or bows-to alongside finger pontoons.
