About Vilamoura Marina

Marina de Vilamoura is situated in the old part of Faro District, on the Southern coast of Portugal. Faro District (Distrito de Faro in Portuguese) is located in the extreme South of Portugal, with Faro as its capital. Vilamoura Marina is recognised as a border entry point where immigration and customs formalities can be carried out for people arriving by boat. Officially this is handled by the Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras (SEF) — Portugal’s immigration and border service. Vilamoura has a designated SEF presence for boats arriving from outside Portugal/Schengen. If you are entering Portugal from international waters (outside the Schengen Area), you can clear immigration and customs in Vilamoura Marina. This includes: Passport control Customs clearance Reporting your vessel arrival to the authorities Arrival Procedure (Typical for Ports of Entry) On arrival, you generally: Contact marina reception for berth assignment and check-in. Notify or meet with SEF/immigration officers to complete border formalities. Complete any customs declarations if required. Even though Vilamoura Marina is smaller compared to major commercial seaports, its SEF designation means it is officially recognised for international arrivals by sea — much like other Portuguese marinas such as Lagos and Portimão
