Description, etc.

Itajai and Navegantes are located across from each other, on Rio Itajai. Itajai is bigger than Navegantes, and official offices for the port (Customs, Immigration, Port Captain) are in Itajai. Not a typical cruising destination, but a good place to get work done on a boat. There is an extensive boat-building and repair industry mostly catering to wooden and steel fishing boats and, to a lesser extent, tourist schooners.

Not really a yacht repair place, but has extensive haulout and repair facilities for boats at least up to 50m.

Generally straightforward buoyed channel leading to an entrance channel. Avoid in or after strong onshore winds (due to the large waves that can be expected). Beware of currents in excess of five knots if there has recently been a lot of rain.
