Meet your skipper - Paulo

Hi, I'm Paulo — a certified skipper raised in Cascais.

I created Cascais By Boat because I wanted to share what I love most: sailing this coastline, knowing the perfect spot to drop anchor.

Every experience is private, relaxed, and shaped around you.

Whether you're celebrating something special, exploring for the first time, or simply want a perfect day on the water — I'll make sure you feel completely at home on board.

All experiences are operated under full maritime certification and Portuguese safety standards.
