Located in Viana do Castelo, Portugal, West Sea Shipyard has become a key name in the construction of modern river cruise vessels. Since its founding in 2014, the company has built twelve river cruise ships and continues to grow its activity with new projects currently underway.

West Sea combines high-quality construction with strong design capability, producing vessels that meet the specific needs of operators sailing the Douro River and other European waterways. With the capacity to build up to eight river cruise vessels per year, the shipyard offers flexibility, efficiency, and attention to detail throughout every stage of production.

Sustainability and innovation are central to West Sea’s approach. The shipyard is certified in quality, environment, and occupational safety standards and its modern facilities support responsible and precise shipbuilding.

Through consistent performance, reliable delivery, and a clear focus on quality, West Sea Shipyard continues to strengthen Portugal’s position in the global shipbuilding industry and deserves recognition for excellence in cruise vessel construction.
