Nautical Cerveira – Lenta Pier

About this port

The Lenta Pier is located on the Minho River, downstream the Lenta river beach, a privileged area considering the proximity to the river and the marvellous landscape setting. It is close to the urban zone, the international bridge, several sports facilities and the four-star INATEL Cerveira Hotel. It is also close to the eco road “Caminho do Rio”, a 13 km path alongside the river. The Lenta Pier is an accessible infrastructure that allows the mooring of leisure boats, as well as the development of activities related with nautical sports or river and nature exploration.
