The marina is run by the yacht club of the same name and it should be noted that the club does not normally berth visiting yachts in the narrow Canaletta Morin next to the clubhouse, as stated in some pilot books. |

Marina radio contact
Contact Darsena Le Saline on VHF channel 09 prior to entry. For advance reservations, telephone or e-mail.
The entrance to Chioggia (which is also the southern access point to the lagoon of Venice) is between two long breakwaters extending E from the long, low spit of land that protects the lagoon from seaward. A detached, arc-shaped breakwater protects the entrance from SE and a yacht can pass either side to enter the channel. However, note that the deeper water is towards the northern breakwater. Depths in the main channel are 6.5 - 8.0 metres but only 4.0 - 5.0 towards the sides. Be sure to give the ends of the breakwaters a clearance of at least 200 metres as there is dangerous rock ballasting. To reach Darsena Le Saline, turn onto a course of 240 degrees once past the fort of San Felice on the S side of the entrance channel and head for the marina entrance, observing the channel markers as you go. The entrance to the marina basin is at its NW corner at the end of a long, curved breakwater. The marina is very cramped and it is not easy to manoeuvre without a bowthruster.
Note: along this stretch of the Adriatic coast tidal ranges can exceed 1.0 metre at springs, so judging the tides right can make a significant difference to safe access.

- We didn't like the marina, as it was very cramped, the posts were too close together for our boat (13 metres x 4.18 metres) and shelter was not particularly good. The Sottomarina marinas offer better shelter and facilities and in a nicer situation. --Athene of Lymington
