Stern Wind Cruises Lda
Sunset Boat Party Cruise with DJ and Open Bar
4.5 (14,214) · from $26

A party boat Lisbon visitors can book is a sunset cruise on the Tagus with a DJ, drinks and a dance floor, and there are three I’d look at. I compared them on GetYourGuide: the Stern Wind sunset party at $26, the Ondas de Angelo DJ cruise with pizza at $39 and Lisbon Boat Party at $45 with club entry. For every other kind of trip, my page on boat tours in Lisbon compares all 12 side by side.
My pick in one line, among the party boats in Lisbon: I’d book the Stern Wind sunset party for the price and the volume of reviews, 4.5 from 14,214, and the Ondas de Angelo cruise if you want to eat on board. Prices are in US dollars from the listings, checked in October 2026, and booking links are affiliate links.

The Stern Wind listing is the one that says open bar, and it spells out what that means: free white wine, beer, sangria and soft drinks. It also lists a DJ, a bathroom, a life jacket and hotel pickup and drop-off. The cruise is described as a sunset trip along the Tagus, with the listed stops Praça do Comércio, the 25 de Abril Bridge, Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries. Its duration reads 2 to 4 hours because it depends on the option you select, and the only language listed is English.
The other two tickets are less all-you-can-drink. Ondas de Angelo includes beer, Portuguese white or rosé wine, sangria, soft drinks, coffee, still water and two kinds of pizza, pepperoni and a vegetarian margherita. Lisbon Boat Party includes a welcome drink and a long drink, and extra drinks and food are sold on board. If a true open bar is your priority, Stern Wind is the match in my data.
The listing also bans a few things: intoxication, alcohol and drugs brought on board, nudity and see-through clothing. I’d take that as the operator saying it will refuse boarding if you arrive drunk, so pace the evening.

All three Lisbon party boats allow free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure for a full refund.
Anyone typing lisbon sunset booze cruise into Google wants the same thing: drinks while the sun goes down over the river. The sunset is the reason a party boat in Lisbon leaves when it does. On my sunset cruise Lisbon page I worked out sunset time for every month from the city’s coordinates, and it runs from about 5:20 pm in December to about 9 pm in June. That matters because a party boat in December leaves into the dark, while one in June is still a daytime boat for the first hour.
The cruise that leans hardest on the sunset is Ondas de Angelo. Its listed route runs from the dock to the 25 de Abril Bridge, the MAAT museum, the Monument to the Discoveries and Belém Tower, then back past the bridge, Cristo Rei and Almada. It scores 4.5 from 347 reviews, so the sample is smaller than Stern Wind’s, and the listing excludes children under 18, pregnant women, wheelchair users and people prone to seasickness.

Ondas de Angelo
My pick: The one with food: live DJ, drinks and pizza for $39, 2 hours, 4.5 from 347 reviews.
Of the Lisbon party boats, Lisbon Boat Party is the one I’d call the big night out. Its listing describes the biggest and original boat party in Lisbon, cruising since 2023, and it runs 4 hours for $45. The ticket bundles a welcome drink, a long drink, a live DJ and entry to a top club in Lisbon, so the boat is the warm-up rather than the whole evening. Seven languages are listed: English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, Dutch, German and Norwegian.
The listed stops are Belém, Cristo Rei in Almada, the Tagus River and Cais do Sodré, which suggests the boat finishes on the eastern side of the waterfront near the nightlife. I’d confirm the end point and the club on the booking page before you plan the night. The meeting instructions are unusual: look for a boat called Principe Perfeito with a blue flag that says Lisbon Boat Party. Like Ondas de Angelo, the listing excludes children under 18, and you can’t bring your own drinks.
The rating is 4.6 from 243 reviews, which is good but a small sample. I’d book it if you want the party to continue after dark, and choose Stern Wind if you want to be in bed by midnight.

My pick: The long night: $45 for 4 hours with DJ, drinks and club entry, 4.6 from 243 reviews.
If you need a party boat in Lisbon today, the booking page is the only place to check. I don’t have departure times in my data, because the listings don’t state them, so I can’t tell you which evening slots are open. What I can say is that all three tickets allow free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead, which means a same-day booking is final but a booking made two days ahead is not.
Sunset time decides when the boat leaves, so use my monthly table on the sunset page to guess the slot. In October, for example, sunset is about 7:21 pm on 1 October, and then about 5:40 pm after the clocks go back on the last Sunday of the month. Check the departure on the booking page against that before you finalise dinner plans.
Searches for party boat Lisbon Reddit tend to ask whether the party boats are worth it or a tourist trap. I can’t quote threads, so I’ll quote the reviews in the listings. The Stern Wind snippets mention the music, the sunset timing and meeting other travellers, and one says it starts slow and beautiful with the sunset and turns into a dance party downstairs at the end. Another notes the boat was nearly empty off-season, which is a fair warning: a party boat in winter may not feel like one.
The numbers help too. Stern Wind has 14,214 reviews at 4.5, so a lot of people have ridden it. The other two have a few hundred reviews each. I would trust the scores on all three, but I’d treat the smaller ones as less settled.
All three party boats in Lisbon are on GetYourGuide, and you book them there with free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. That makes the choice easy to reverse if the forecast turns. Compare prices by what is included, not the headline: at $26 Stern Wind has the lowest ticket, but Ondas de Angelo’s $39 includes pizza and Lisbon Boat Party’s $45 includes the club.
Arrive early. The Ondas de Angelo listing asks for 10 to 15 minutes before the start for smooth boarding at Gate 3 in Doca de Santo Amaro, in front of the Rui dos Pregos restaurant. Santo Amaro is a short walk from the 25 de Abril Bridge, which the boat passes under on its way to Belém.
A few small habits make a boat party more fun. Eat something first unless your ticket includes food, because the Stern Wind and Lisbon Boat Party tickets list drinks but no meal, and only Ondas de Angelo includes pizza. Take a light jacket: the upper deck is open and cooler once the sun goes down. Keep your phone and wallet in a zipped pocket, because the dance floor on a Lisbon party boat is crowded.
Also plan how you will get home. Doca de Santo Amaro is near the 25 de Abril Bridge, a short ride from central Lisbon, and Lisbon Boat Party finishes with club entry, so the trip may end after the public transport you were counting on. I’d settle the return before you drink.
Whatever you pick, remember that two of the three exclude under-18s, and that the rules on alcohol and clothing are strict.

I compared three on GetYourGuide. The Stern Wind sunset party is $26 for 2 to 4 hours, the Ondas de Angelo DJ party with pizza is $39 for 2 hours, and Lisbon Boat Party with club entry is $45 for 4 hours. All prices are in US dollars and all three have free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure.
On the Stern Wind boat, yes: the listing includes free white wine, beer, sangria and soft drinks. The Ondas de Angelo listing includes beer, Portuguese white or rosé wine, sangria, soft drinks and pizza. Lisbon Boat Party lists a welcome drink and a long drink, with extra drinks sold on board.
Not on two of the three. The Ondas de Angelo and Lisbon Boat Party listings both exclude children under 18. The Stern Wind listing lists no age rule in the data I have, but with an open bar and a dance floor I'd treat all three as adult trips and check the booking page.
On the numbers, I'd pick the Stern Wind sunset party. It is the cheapest at $26, scores 4.5 and has 14,214 reviews, far more than the others. If you want food, the Ondas de Angelo cruise includes pizza at $39, and if you want to carry on to a club, Lisbon Boat Party at $45 includes entry.
It depends on the boat. Ondas de Angelo meets at Gate 3 in Doca de Santo Amaro, in front of the Rui dos Pregos restaurant. Lisbon Boat Party tells you to look for the boat Principe Perfeito with a blue flag. The Stern Wind listing gives no meeting point, so read its booking page.
Between 2 and 4 hours. The Ondas de Angelo cruise is 2 hours, the Stern Wind cruise is listed at 2 to 4 hours depending on the option you choose, and the Lisbon Boat Party sunset cruise with club entry is listed at 4 hours.
