Marina radio contact
Call VHF channel 09 - (before entry). For long term arrangements call at +30 22730 61600. The manager Mr. Spyros Moustakas, is very eager to please his customers.
The approach to the marina is straightforward. It is best to stay close to the jetty on your port side as you enter the marina.
Berthing
The attendants will meet you outside the marina with their inflatable and guide you to a berth. They will assist you to dock. There are laid mooring lines, do not anchor.
If you are either entering or exiting Greece, you will have to walk to Pythagorio, 15 minutes, for the formalities.
NOTE: The attendants are not at the marina 24hr/day. They usually arrive sometime between 9-10 AM and leave around 8-9 PM.

NOTE: The marina advertises on their web site many services and facilities that do not exist.
Repairs/Yard
- 80 ton travel-lift for haul-outs
- Long-term storage on paved hard surface (more expensive than storage in the water)
- Fiberglass, canvas, electrical, and engine repairs. NOTE: these are independent contractors and do not report to the marina's management.
- There is a sailmaker's shop (off the marina)
Security
There are great plans (closed circuit TV, gatehouse, 24hr security etc) but as of the spring of 2013, the provided security was minimum. Nevertheless, Samos is a very low-crime area.
Marina Location
The marina is a 15 minute walk from Pythagorio. Taxis can be summoned.
Transport

- Public bus stop, 10 min walk uphill
- Samos Airport is only a 10 minute drive
Price
For current prices are no longer available on the marina web site. However, in 2010 their prices were hiked by about 25% and again for 2013 and the marina is now rather expensive.
