MS FERNAO DE MAGALHAES

Named after the famous Portuguese navigator (better known as Magellan) who completed the first journey round the world, the MS Fernao de Magalhaes sails on the Douro. Passengers can admire the unique landscapes, sculpted by nature and shaped by man, all along an enchanted valley where the famous port wine is produced.

Completely renovated in 2015, the MS Fernão de Magalhães is an intimate-sized standard ship, measuring 75 meters long and 11,40 meters wide. It can accommodate 138 passengers, in 71 cabins spread over three decks. The size of each cabin is between 11 m2 and 14 m2, offering amenities and providing guests with all the comforts they need during their stay. The majority of the cabins are located on the upper deck and have large panoramic windows. Those on the middle and main decks have large windows.

The decoration is stylish and its atmosphere both elegant and friendly, and in perfect harmony with its surroundings. The pastel shades refer to the region’s “douceur de vivre” and the green hillsides. The restaurant is located on the main deck and offers a delicate cuisine in a refined setting, where large windows allow guests to fully enjoy the panorama. Situated on the middle deck is the lounge / bar with a dance floor. The sun deck has a pool with comfortable sun loungers and a large shaded area, the ideal place to relax.
