Marina radio contact
Mr. Miguel Mendes Moreira, the marina director is very friendly and helpful.
You can call in advance on the telephone for a reservation. But it is hard to get a response on the VHF.

Berthing
The marina uses "finger" pontoons. The attendants, if you arrive during working hours, will saw you to a pontoon.
Warning: With strong easterly winds the "finger" pontoons do not hold the boat securely and damage may occur. Use an anchor and extra lines to hold the boat away from the pontoon and docks.

Personal experience
The staff is very friendly and helpful. Nevertheless, during our visit when we were away to Funchal for a few days, a nasty eastern gale developed and my boat, S/Y Thetis, sustained some damage despite prompt action by the attendants. --Istioploos
