SABA Mercado is the easiest place to leave a car in central Matosinhos – a covered, guarded garage on Rua Roberto Ivens, three minutes on foot from Mercado metro station (Line A) and a short stroll from the town's famous seafood streets. It runs 24/7, takes vehicles up to 2.10 m, and online booking can cut the walk-up rate by as much as 70%. Here's everything you need to park here without a hitch in 2026.

The garage sits beside the Matosinhos municipal market, close to Avenida Eng. Duarte Pacheco and the Leça riverside. From here it's roughly 15 minutes on foot to the City Hall and the Bom Jesus de Matosinhos church, and you're right in the middle of the town's legendary grilled-fish restaurants. The Mercado metro stop (Line A) is three minutes away, so you can park once and ride into central Porto without touching the car again. Arriving in Porto by air first? Compare Porto airport transfer options before you pick up a car.
