More notes about the Marina |
Marina radio contact
Contact details - (before entry), and harbourmaster/manager's name, etc.
The entrance of the marina is hard to see until you are almost there.
Danger: With a strong SW swell entering to the marina can be very tricky and at times untenable.
Berthing
Marina 4 in Glyfadha (Γλυφάδα) or Glifada [37° 52.3' N 23° 44' E] is usually very crowded and you have to rouse the lazy attendants to direct where to go. It does provide very good all weather shelter. The marina is operated by the municipality of Glyfadha and the level of service can only be kindly described as indifferent. Unfortunately the marina rates are astronomical.
If you are lucky an attendant will give a mooring. You and go bows-to where directed.
If there is no attendant in evidence go where there is a free berth. Be aware, however, that most likely the berth belongs to someone.
Athenians have to wait years after entering a long waiting list before they can have a berth.
