Porto degli Argonauti is, like [[Marina di Policoro]], another of the new, luxury residential and marina developments under development in the Golfo di Taranto in [[Italy]].  Opened in October 2009, Porto degli Argonauti lies some 25 miles SW of [[Taranto]] on the W side of the gulf.  Constructed on the coast by the company Nettis Resort around 20 km E of the town of Pisticci, the development will eventually provide, in addition to residential units, a total of around 450 berths for vessels of up to 40 metres.  In addition to marina berths, the development also includes a boatyard capable of undertaking most repair and maintenance tasks.

==Weather==

During the summer the prevailing winds in the Ionian are light to moderate SW or SE seabreezes.  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 Rocella 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.  Further east in the Gulf of Taranto local seabreezes predominate during the summer, although a light to moderate northerly is not uncommon.

The coastline to either side of the marina entrance is largely flat and featureless.  The marina entrance is identifiable by the two short curved breakwaters protecting the channel.  Entrance is from SE.  The entrance leads into a 450 metre long channel giving access to the two basins of the marina.  Depths in the entrance are 4.0 metres, in the channel and in the marina basins 3.5 metres.  Shelter in the marina is excellent.

Opened in October 2009, Porto degli Argonauti lies some 25 miles SW of Taranto on the W side of the gulf. Constructed on the coast by the company Nettis Resort around 20 km E of the town of Pisticci, the development will eventually provide, in addition to residential units, a total of around 450 berths for vessels of up to 40 metres. In addition to marina berths, the development also includes a boatyard capable of undertaking most repair and maintenance tasks.
