Originating from Turkey, SharkCaretta benefits from decades of industrial experience in aluminum manufacturing and applied engineering, which is reflected in the build quality and reliability of its boats.
The expansion into Portugal represents a strategic step in strengthening the brand’s position in Southern Europe, targeting a market with a strong connection to nautical tourism, leisure, and maritime activities.
Operations in Portugal will be supported by Porti Nauta, part of the Angel Pilot Group — one of the leading players in the national nautical sector, with over three decades of experience, a solid sales and service infrastructure, and a strong presence in key industry events and locations.
