During the summer the prevailing winds in the Ionian are light to moderate SW or SE sea breezes.  In spring and autumn, northerly winds are more frequent and can quickly rise to near gale force, especially in the lee of high mountain ranges.  Winds in summer are generally light from the Straits of Messina until reaching the Golfo di Squillace between [[Roccella Ionica]] and Le Castella. With anything W in the wind, it tends to funnel down here over the mountains of southern Calabria, bringing strong gusts and raising an uncomfortable sea.  The conditions to avoid, however, when cruising this part of the Ionian coast are strong southerlies. The harbours here are few and far between and none of them are really safe to enter in such conditions.

The harbour is situated on the E side of the village of Le Castella. The eponymous castle sits on a sandy spit just W of the village and is conspicuous on the approach. The harbour is entered from ENE keeping close to the end of the outer, curved breakwater to avoid the shallow reef off the rocky headland to the N.  Once into the outer harbour, the narrow channel leading to the northern basin will be clearly visible to starboard. The entrance is narrow and depths are only 2 metres, so the basin is only suitable for smaller, shallow draught yachts. Entrance is difficult and possibly unsafe in strong winds from NE round to SE.

The village and its castle are spectacularly situated at the end of a rocky promontory jutting out into the sea.  The 16th century castle on the shore has been excellently restored and is well worth a visit.

Le Castella harbour

The harbour of Le Castella lies on the Ionian coast of Italy, around 55 miles NE of Rocella Ionica and 15 miles SW of Crotone. The harbour consists of a southern basin reserved for fishing boats and a northern basin for leisure craft.

The northern basin (maximum authorized draught 2.0 metres), has five pontoons with laid moorings belonging to various clubs. Shelter is good in the northern basin.

Weather

During the summer the prevailing winds in the Ionian are light to moderate SW or SE sea breezes. In spring and autumn, northerly winds are more frequent and can quickly rise to near gale force, especially in the lee of high mountain ranges. Winds in summer are generally light from the Straits of Messina until reaching the Golfo di Squillace between Roccella Ionica and Le Castella. With anything W in the wind, it tends to funnel down here over the mountains of southern Calabria, bringing strong gusts and raising an uncomfortable sea. The conditions to avoid, however, when cruising this part of the Ionian coast are strong southerlies. The harbours here are few and far between and none of them are really safe to enter in such conditions.

Sources for weather information:

  • There is a continuous (computerized voice) weather forecast on VHF 68 - first in Italian and then followed with an English translation
  • The same forecast is given in Italian and English on VHF coastal stations following a notification on channel 16
  • Navtex weather forecasts are broadcast from stations at Roma, Cagliari (Sardinia) and Augusta (Sicily)

Passages

See Aegean to West Mediterranean Passages.

Communication

Add here VHF channel for coastguard, harbor masters. etc.

Also see World Cruiser's Nets

Navigation

The harbour is situated on the E side of the village of Le Castella. The eponymous castle sits on a sandy spit just W of the village and is conspicuous on the approach. The harbour is entered from ENE keeping close to the end of the outer, curved breakwater to avoid the shallow reef off the rocky headland to the N. Once into the outer harbour, the narrow channel leading to the northern basin will be clearly visible to starboard. The entrance is narrow and depths are only 2 metres, so the basin is only suitable for smaller, shallow draught yachts. Entrance is difficult and possibly unsafe in strong winds from NE round to SE.

Five pontoons have been installed in the harbour. Depths on the pontoons range from 1.0 metre at the root to 2 metres at the end. The deeper water is along the quays near the entrance, where depths are 3 - 3.5 metres. Berth alongside or stern or bows-to wherever there is space. The pontoons are generally full of local boats. Laid moorings at most berths. Full facilties, fuel dock, WiFi, resturant. 35 T hoist, some repairs.
