Sines Marina is located next to Vasco da Gama Beach. It is the only leisure port infrastructure located on the coast between Troia and the Algarve, in an area where recreational navigation is intense all year round. A mandatory stopping point for leasure yachts travelling along the Portuguese coast on national and international routes, this port opens up new perspectives for the tourist exploration of Sines and the entire Costa Vicentina.
Sines is a municipality in the center of the Alentejo Coast, about 160km south of Lisbon. It is divided into two parishes: Sines (to the north) and Porto Covo (to the south). The two towns are separated by about 13km.
The municipality of Sines is served by the intercity passenger transport services of Rede Expressos (express service) and Rodoviária do Alentejo (for journeys within the region).
Information on departure and arrival times to Sines can be found on their respective websites.
