Doca de Santo Amaro

Old yacht marina under the bridge lined with waterfront bars and restaurants

A former dock converted into a marina at the foot of the Ponte 25 de Abril, ringed by a row of low brick warehouses now occupied by bars, cafés, and restaurants. The terraces face the moored yachts and the great red bridge directly overhead, and the setting is the main reason to come — sunset here is one of the better cheap pleasures in Alcântara.

It is busiest in the evenings and at weekends, drawing a young Lisbon crowd before the night moves on to the clubs nearby. The food is unremarkable and aimed at the view, but a cold beer or a glass of wine on the waterfront with the bridge looming above is worth the short walk from LX Factory.
