| summary= The small harbour of '''Cetraro''' lies on the Calabrian coast of [[Italy]], along the ''instep'' of the peninsula, about one mile N of the town of the same name. The harbour has a tendency to silt and depths in the entrance were historically subject to considerable variation. Upgrading of the harbour and dredging in 2009 established depths of around 3.0 metres throughout the harbour and 5.0 - 6.0 metres in the entrance. However, it is wise to establish the current position before relying on being able to enter here.

Winds along the Calabrian Coast of Italy are generally light in the summer months. The most notable feature is a SW sea breeze that kicks in in late morning and blows at little more than Force 2 - 4 until the evening.  Thundery conditions are not infrequent during early Spring and Autumn, and associated winds can sometimes reach gale force and kick up a substantial sea. In winter, gales can blow from both NW and S and entry to and exit from some of the harbours along the coast can become hazardous.

The small harbour of Cetraro lies on the Calabrian coast of Italy, along the instep of the peninsula, about one mile N of the town of the same name. The harbour has a tendency to silt and depths in the entrance were historically subject to considerable variation. Upgrading of the harbour and dredging in 2009 established depths of around 3.0 metres throughout the harbour and 5.0 - 6.0 metres in the entrance. However, it is wise to establish the current position before relying on being able to enter here.
