What is the best time for a private boat tour in Lisbon?
Every season has its own enchantments. While spring and summer (April to September) offer the best weather for a memorable sailing experience and tend to be the most popular months for a boat tour, you will also find higher prices. However, during the summer, you can enjoy a boat trip anytime between sunrise and sunset.
If you appreciate the special Lisbon light and are looking to see more wild life, we recommend doing a private boat tour during the off-season (between September and February). As the weather in Lisbon and Cascais is warm and pleasant, you’re sure to have a great time onboard. Nevertheless, we offer warm drinks onboard, and have comfortable blankets available. Additionally, you will also be able to access special pricing and add-ons during the fall and winter months.
When booking a boat tour during the off-season, don’t hesitate to ask the crew about the best time to jump aboard. Furthermore, as days get shorter, we recommend jumping onboard between 12pm – 4pm, or about 5pm if you’d like to experience a wonderful sunset on a private yacht.
Can I customize my private boat tour?
Yes! Indeed, with Katerina Boat, you can tailor your itinerary to include specific stops or activities.
