cruising under lisbon bridge

[scottie86]

I was wondering if anyone could help me with what time approx do you have to be up on deck by to watch yourself go under the bridge at lisbon.

 

many thanks

If you don't want to get up early then wait till sail away and you go under the bridge again.

If you dock at 7am then you will go under the brdige at approx 630am.

6.30 is fine , its worthwhile to make the effort as the ship seems to limbo under the bridge , 30ft to spare on oceana i remember , all the sights can be seen very easily

It's an early one, the camera said it was 6.20 when we were on the QE2.....

Because the road surface is a "metal-mesh", as you approach the bridge, the sound of the traffic on the road surface resembles a swarm of bees and gets louder and louder as you approach.

Very true Mutinner, You can also see the railway line that runs under the bridge. Stunning view coming in to Lisboa!!

 

My fav port to come into early morning was Port Said !!!!!! awwwwwww what a morning with me and my fellow ship spotters :D

a few photos on my album of the sail under the bridge, including this one, when it looks like we won't make it

Get up and sail into the sunrise. We got up very early as we sailed up the river it was unforgettable. Going under the Bridge & seeing the Statue of Christ in the early dawn. Can't wait to do it again

Hi Scottie, I saw LibreLass's pictures just before we went away which convinced me to get up early to watch the Lisbon approach, it wasn't the nicest of mornings but I certainly wasn't alone as you can see

The Cirque Ventura on deck 19 is the highest deck but this was locked, everyone you see on this pic is on the sun deck between the Laguna and Oasis pools. The Great British sailaway under the bridge was a very good evening.

I'll try that post again
