Rabelo Boats Regatta
24 Jun 2023 @ 16:00 – 19:30
Organized by the Confraria do Vinho do Porto, this regatta – featuring one of the most unusual boats still constructed – is traditionally held on the Douro River in Porto during the afternoon of June 24th, the Day of São João, coinciding with the Summer Solstice.
The race starts at the mouth of the Douro River and ends at the Ponte Dom Luis I Bridge. You can watch the regatta from either the Porto side of the River or the Vila Nova de Gaia side.
