| More notes about the marina | |
Marina 4 is situated on the W bank of the river Livenza on the Adriatic coast of Italy near the town of Caorle, eight miles NE of Cortellazzo and six miles SW of the entrance to Portobaseleghe on the Litoranea Veneta. The marina is part of the huge leisure development of Porto Santa Margherita. The marina offers a total of 450 berths for yachts up to 22 metres in depths of 2.5 - 3.5 metres.
Marina radio contact
Try calling Marina 4 VHF channel 09 or 16. You may have better luck by telephoning or e-mailing in advance for berthing information and reservations.
The entrance to the river Livenza lies at 
45°35.1′N, 12°52.08′E. The entrance is protected by two 500-metre long converging breakwaters The entrance is prone to silting and depths are currently (June 2015) around 3.0 - 3.5 metres at low water. Entry should therefore only be attempted close to high water and on a rising tide and never in strong onshore winds. Beware of the seasonal ferry (April - September) that exits the river at speed. Marina 4 is situated 400 metres upstream on the port side of the channel. Access is along a narrow channel through a pair of lock gates (used to maintain depths in the marina) with a width of 7.4 metres. Depths in the channel can be as little as 2.5 metres at low water springs.
Berthing
Berthing assistance available on request. Berths are on nine pontoons and associated catwalks at the western end of the development. All berths are four point moorings using posts, with stern lines provided (to be picked up from posts on mooring). Space is very limited between some of the pontoons.
