After years of lying neglected and unfinished, Mytilene Marina on the island of Lesvos finally opened in July 2010 and now offers a much-needed, sheltered port of call or permanent base for yachts cruising the northern Aegean. Situated at the southern end of the large harbour of Mytilene on the E coast of the island, the marina offers 222 berths for yachts of up to 20 metres plus a small area of hard standing for up to 30 yachts. The main facilities are in place and it is to be expected that further improvements will follow as the marina fills up.

Contact Mytilene Marina on VHF channel 71 prior to entry. Office operates 0800 - 2100.
The marina lies in the SW corner of the large harbour of Mytilene, S of the commercial harbour. Entry is either on the E or W side of the long detached breakwater that protects the harbour (using the W entrance avoids the usual insistent haranguing of the port police on entry to Mytilene harbour).

Berthing
Marina staff will usually be awaiting you in the entrance (assuming you have called on VHF first) to direct you to a berth and help you moor up. Berths are either bows or stern to on laid moorings on the quayed breakwaters or, for smaller vessels, alongside on finger pontoons.
Marina facilities
Services are still being organized in the marina, but currently it offers:
- Marina reception
- Toilets and showers
- Car parking
- Internet terminal
- Wifi
It is likely that a café/bar and shops will be installed at some stage in the future.

Personal experience
Post your personal experience and rating of this marina.
- The director, Mr. Tsampodimos Ioannis, and receptionist Vivi are exceptionally friendly and the marina is a peaceful haven compared with the cacophany and (in summer) stench of the main harbour --Athene of Lymington 09:45, 9 May 2011 (BST).
