Preveza Marina is situated at the town of [[Preveza]] on the Ionian coast of [[Greece]], six miles NNE of the island of [[Lefkas]].  Although the marina has never been completed, it is currently possible to berth alongside the five concrete piers inside.  Until recently, these were full of local boats or laid up yachts and it was invariably necessary to raft up (albeit for free) if you wished to moor here.  In early 2012 a lease was awarded to [[Cleopatra Marina]] and further work is planned to develop the basin into a proper marina, with all the usual facilities.  However, currently (August 2013) only a Portakabin office (opening hours 0830 – 1430 Monday - Saturday) is in place and a charge is now levied for berthing here.  The typical daily berthing price in August 2013 was around Euro 1.20 per metre overall length.  At present, water and electricity are included in the price, but there are as yet no other facilities.  There are reputedly plans to install showers and toilets but nothing has started yet.  Shelter here is excellent, although strong S or SW winds make some berths uncomfortable.

Since the marina was not originally designed for yachts, the piers are too close to install laid moorings.  At present (and for the foreseeable future) yachts berth alongside on both sides of the five concrete piers.  Depths alongside the piers are mostly 2.5 – 3.0 metres. The piers are supplied with good, strong iron bollards to take lines.  It is usually best to berth with bows facing W if possible, as the afternoon seabreezes tend to blow from NW.  Shelter in the marina is generally good, although strong S and SW winds do send in some swell, which can affect the berths nearer the entrance.

  • Now that the marina is staffed, it's a good place to fill up with water, recharge batteries and stock up from the Preveza supermarkets (15 minutes walk). It's also considerably quieter than the town quay and a good refuge if strong S or E winds make the town quay untenable. --Athene of Lymington
