There is no fuel pump in the marina, but there is an alongside fuel berth for petrol and diesel in the fishing harbour near the red-topped tower at 41D41.25’N,008D50.27’W. Office hours only.
Wind can gust strongly in afternoon, and when it does the beach and harbour entrance will be packed with kitesurfers, windsurfers and jet skis. Sail up-river until you’ve passed the fishing/industrial harbour for some shelter.
Waiting pontoon was packed already. Swing bridge was opened for us after radio request and doing circles in river for 10 minutes. Marina staff very friendly and helpful and clearing in easy.
Marina was nearly full but they gave us a berth at the defunct fuel pontoon. No working fuel berth at marina, but gas station very close. No Wifi, but showers (small fee), laundry and toilets available with key from office.
Town is very nice and clean (even has underground rubbish bins with garbage chutes to avoid the constant bin smell that plagues many other places in warm climates).
Several supermarkets not far from marina and large shopping centre at train station. Take the funicular up to Santa Luzia for an amazing view of the river valley. Celtic ruins are somewhat underwhelming and lack signage.
I paid 30€ for 1 night at the waiting pontoon for my 37ft boat on 10 August 2017. But earlier in the season a friend didn’t pay anything.
Showers need to be paid separately. The whole afternoon we heard jet ski noise. The town is full of tourists but must be very attractive outside the season.

Call on VHF CH 9, (it said ch 11 in our pilot book) if no response just moor on the waiting pontoon. Opening times as stated, although they close for a break 8.30 – 9.00 pm!
We moored up on the waiting pontoon and we stayed so no need to go into the marina. Water and electricity on the pontoon. No wifi. Good recycling – near the waiting pontoon. Staff speak good English.
