Ancoradouro do Jardim Oudinot

Ancoradouro do Jardim Oudinot is a leisure-boat anchorage at Forte da Barra in Gafanha da Nazaré, close to the Terminal Norte of the Port of Aveiro and the ferry pier to São Jacinto. The anchorage lies within Jardim Oudinot, a large eleven-hectare riverside recreational park on the Ria de Aveiro, managed jointly by Porto de Aveiro and Câmara Municipal de Ílhavo.

Maximum draft is given as 1.5 m, while the draft at the entrance and pontoon is 1 m, and the anchorage can be reached on VHF channel 9 or 16. The sources do not state the number of guest berths, prices or opening hours for the anchorage itself.

Within the surrounding park you'll find children's playgrounds and a parking area available to boaters.

Within walking distance from the berths lies the wider park with pedestrian and cycling paths, a river beach known as Praia dos Tesos, sports grounds for football, basketball and tennis, and picnic areas. The museum ship Santo André, a former 71-metre cod-fishing trawler built in 1948, is also moored here as part of the Museu Marítimo de Ílhavo, and from the park you can enjoy views of the Ponte da Barra. Moor at Jardim Oudinot and explore both the ria and the maritime museum ship right on your doorstep.
