The Journey
Palmayachts Meeting Point
Begin your maritime adventure at the Palmayachts Meeting Point, located at Gate 1. This is the perfect spot to set sail and explore Lisbon's stunning coastline, offering a gateway to unforgettable experiences on the Tagus River. Prepare to embark on a voyage of discovery, taking in the sights and sounds of this historic waterway.
Monument to the Discoveries
The Monument to the Discoveries (Padrão dos Descobrimentos) commemorates Portugal's Age of Exploration. Standing proudly on the Tagus River, it depicts iconic figures such as navigators, monarchs, and missionaries who shaped Portugal's maritime empire. Ascend to the top for panoramic views of Belém and the river, and reflect on the audacious voyages that connected continents.
Belém Tower
Belém Tower, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a fortified tower that once guarded the entrance to Lisbon's harbor. Originally built in the 16th century, it served as both a defensive structure and a ceremonial gateway. Explore its intricate architecture, climb to the top for stunning views, and imagine the bustling harbor during the Age of Discoveries.
Christ the King Statue
The Christ the King Statue (Cristo Rei) is a towering monument overlooking Lisbon, inspired by the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro. Ascend to the base for breathtaking panoramic views of the city, the Tagus River, and the 25th of April Bridge. This iconic landmark offers a unique perspective and a moment of reflection.
25th of April Bridge
The 25th of April Bridge is a striking suspension bridge that spans the Tagus River, connecting Lisbon to Almada. Often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, it's an engineering marvel and an iconic symbol of Lisbon. Enjoy stunning views of the city and the river from various vantage points along the waterfront, or even experience driving across this impressive structure.
Commerce Square
Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Lisbon's grandest square, opens onto the Tagus River. Historically the site of the royal palace before the 1755 earthquake, it's now a vibrant public space lined with elegant arcades, cafes, and the iconic Arco da Rua Augusta. Soak in the atmosphere, admire the architecture, and feel the pulse of Lisbon's history.
Saint George's Castle
Saint George's Castle (Castelo de São Jorge), perched atop Lisbon's highest hill, offers commanding views of the city and the Tagus River.

Discover centuries of history, from Roman fortifications to royal residence.
