| summary=Tuscan Coast and [[wikipedia:Tuscan Archipelago|Tuscan Archipelago]] in [[Italy]] is a fairly popular destination. Yachts cruising along the Tuscan coast generally have a dilemma: whether to stick to the coast or island-hop down through the islands. If there is time, an ideal itinerary would take in at least the major islands of Elba and Giglio in between cruising the coast barely 10 miles away. Harbours are slightly sparser along this coast, which includes the major port of [[Livorno]] as well as marinas at (north to south) [[Marina di Carrara]], [[Viareggio]], [[Salivoli]], [[Talamone]], [[Santo Stefano]], [[Punta Ala Marina]], [[Porto Ercole]] and [[Marina di Cala Galera]]. For details of harbours, see below.<br />

| summary=The [[Ligurian Coast]] of [[Italy]] lays along the coast of the [[wikipedia:Ligurian Sea|Ligurian Sea]]. It is less frequented by cruising yachts than other parts of Italy, since most yachts tend to head down from the Riviera coast of France to Corsica and then Sardinia. It is nevertheless a fine cruising ground with some attractive harbours and anchorages. It extends from the border with France at San Remo round as far as Livorno, and includes the major ports of [[Genoa]] and [[La Spezia]] as well as marinas at the harbours of (west to east) [[San Remo]], [[Marina degli Aregai|Aregai]], [[Andora]], [[Alassio]], [[Finale]], [[Savona]], [[Varazze]], [[Arenzano]], [[Rapallo]], [[Chiavari]] and [[Lavagna]].

The marina offers a total of 221 berths for yachts up to 25 metres in depths up to 5.0 metres and 55 places ashore for overwintering. Shelter in the marina is excellent in all conditions, although strong SW winds send in a slight swell. <br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call Simuni Marina on VHF channel 17. Alternatively, call or e-mail for advance reservations. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
The narrow entrance to the {{mark|type= waypoint |name=inlet |lat=44.46474|lon=14.95381|zoom=15}} is three miles E of the northern end of the island of O. Maun. The entrance is best approached on a course of 045 degrees, keeping to the centre of the channel. This is to avoid a shoal patch half a mile ESE of Rt. Simuni, the headland on the E side of the entrance, and inshore rocks on the W side of the channel just inside the entrance. After 500 metres the channel narrows and turns to port, where the marina berths lie. Be careful not to cut the corner, as there is a shoal patch off the W side just where you start the turn. Depths in the channel reduce from 15 metres at the entrance to between 2.0 and 5.0 metres at the quays.<br />

| summary= The deep and sheltered inlet of [[Slano]] lies 13 nM NW of the entrance to the harbour of [[Dubrovnik]] on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]] and 2 nM NE of the island of [[Šipan]]. The inlet is a useful overnight anchorage for yachts on passage to and from Dubrovnik or seeking shelter in northerly winds. Visiting yachts have the choice of anchoring at the top of the bay off the hamlet of Slano or, if there is space, berthing stern/bows-to the quay of the village. Shelter in the inlet is good, although strong SW winds send in an unpleasant swell and can make the quay at Slano untenable.<br />

==Navigation==<br />
There are no hazards in the approach to the inlet of [[Slano]]. A light structure on the NW headland at the entrance to the inlet is visible from some distance. There are shoal patches extending off the headlands on both sides and a yacht should not pass too close on entry.<br />

| imagetext= There is room for 6-8 yachts on the quay<br />
| text= The best place to moor (except in southerly winds) is stern/bows-to the quay of the settlement of Slano at the NE head of the inlet. The quay can be identified by the green light structure on its S end. The S end of the quay is reserved for fishing boats mooring alongside, but the N end (the part extending for 50 metres S from the small fast food cafe) has been equipped with eight laid moorings (not there in July 2015, but maybe being relaid) and —better still —this section has now been dredged to 3.5 - 4 metres all along its length. Water and electricity are available on request. The mooring charge is not cheap, however. In June 2014 it was 273 kuna for 13 metres plus 70 for electricity and 30 for water. Shelter here is good in all but strong SW winds, which send in a heavy swell and make the quay untenable.<br />
<br />
There is also a spanking new section of quay S of the green light structure which looks very tempting BUT at present (June 2014) depths are barely 2.0 metres alongside and there are numerous small craft moorings to snag one's prop. If they dredged it, removed the mooring buoys and installed laid lines it could add a further 10-15 stern-to berths here, but in the meantime it is only suitable for shallow draft vessels and dinghies. <br />

Another anchorage is the bay of Banja at the SE end of the inlet, where depths are around 10.0 - 12.0 metres and the holding is good in mud. Shelter here is less good in northerly winds, but better than Slano in southerlies. The bay to the W of the entrance with the large hotel has very poor holding and is unsuitable for anchoring.<br />

The marina is situated at the W end of the large commercial harbour of [[Split]] on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]]. Split has good international transport links by ferry, road and air, with an airport only 20 kms away and regular ferries to the Italian ports of [[Ancona]], [[Pescara]] and [[Bari]]. Operated by the government-owned ACI Group, Marina Split offers 355 berths for yachts up to 80 metres in depths of up to 3.0 metres. <br />
<br />
Next to the marina, but deeper into the harbour there is a couple of sailing clubs: [http://www.jklabud.hr/ Jedriličarski klub "Labud"] (160 wet berths,tel. +385 21 398-583), [http://www.jk-mornar.hr/ Jedrilicarski klub Mornar] (45 wet berths, no visitors) and a private company [http://www.navaboats.com/ Nautika centar Nava] (tel. +385 21 407 700).<br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call Marina Split on VHF channel 10 prior to entry. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to enquire about berthing or advance reservations. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
There are no hazards in the approach to Split, although the coast on either side of the main harbour has a number of isolated rocks and should not be approached too closely. The city is easily identified from some distance off by a tall, disused lighthouse just E of the harbour entrance and the buildings of the city behind. Ferries enter and leave the harbour at speed and caution is needed on the final approach. The marina lies at the W end of the harbour and is entered from NNE between a long breakwater (marked with a red tower) and the shore. There are off lying rocks along the shore, marked with two green starboard buoys. <br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
Instant-Book available in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-aci-marina-split-2656 ACI Marina Split]. Choose available dates and book your berth immediately, without sending a booking request.<br />
<br />
Berthing assistance available. Yachts berth stern/bows-to where directed on one of seven long pontoons or associated quays. Laid moorings at all berths. Maximum depths in the marina are 8.0 metres but there is little more than 3.0 metres at the entrance.<br />
<br />

<br />
==Security==<br />
Good. <br />
<br />
==Location==<br />
The marina is situated on the W side of the large commercial harbour of Split, which is a major transport hub, with an international airport and good rail links. The airport itself is only 20 km W of the marina. <br />
<br />
==Transportation==<br />
* Taxi boat to the city centre (50 kunas one way)<br />

Marina Pula lies at the town of the same name, 10 miles N of the extreme southern tip of the Istrian peninsula in Croatia and 17 miles south of the harbour of [[Rovinj]]. The marina is owned and operated by the government-owned ACI Club group of marinas, which also operates marinas at [[Umag]] and [[Rovinj]] on the west and [[Opatija]] on the east coast of Istria. Marina Pula offers 213 berths in total for yachts up to 15 metres and in depths of up to 6.0 metres. The marina has one of the most unusual sites in Croatia, right beneath the town’s magnificent 1st century AD Roman amphitheatre.<br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call Marina Pula on VHF channel 17 prior to entry. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to enquire about berthing or advance reservations. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
In the approach from N a yacht can either sail outside the Brioni Islands or through the channel separating them from the mainland, which is well marked. The approach from S is straightforward. The entrance to Pula inlet is protected on the S side by a breakwater extending nearly a mile NNW from the southern headland. Sections of the breakwater are damaged and it is important to round the light structure at its end rather than mistake the damaged sections for an entry channel. Once in the harbour, continue SE for a mile, leaving the islands of Katerina and Andrija to port, before turning N, leaving the island of Uljanik, where there is a conspicuous shipyard linked to the mainland by a causeway, to starboard. The marina is half a mile E of the northern tip of Uljanik island. Beware of the shoal ground extending E and S from the tip of the island, the limits of which are marked with four marker buoys. Shelter in the marina is good, although strong W winds make it uncomfortable.<br />

[[Marina Dubrovnik]] is situated two miles inland of the commercial harbour of [[Dubrovnik#Gruz Harbour|Gruz]] near Dubrovnik on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]]. The marina is operated by the Croatian government-owned ACI group and provides 380 berths for yachts up to 75 metres in depths of up to 5.0 metres. The marina is very popular with visiting yachts during the season and space can be scarce. The marina is a 15-minute bus ride from the centre of Dubrovnik old town. <br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call Marina Dubrovnik on VHF channel 17. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to inquire about berthing. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
In the approach from the N, leave the islet of {{mark|type=island|name=Otocic Daksa|lat=42.6679|lon=18.05736|zoom=15}} to starboard and steer for the road bridge at the entrance to the inlet of Rijeka Dubrovacka, passing the commercial harbour of [[Dubrovnik#Gruz Harbour|Gruz]] to starboard (you will need to call in at Gruz to clear in if arriving from abroad).<br />
<br />
Approaching from the S, leave the rocky archipelago of {{mark|type=danger|name=Hridi Grebeni|lat=42.65127|lon=18.04715|zoom=15}} to starboard (the outermost islet has a lighthouse on it) and then the islet of {{mark|type=island|name=Otocic Daksa|lat=42.6679|lon=18.05736|zoom=15}} to port. Pass N of the beacon of {{mark|type=danger|name=Plicina Vranac|lat=42.66481|lon=18.06575|zoom=18}}, which marks shoals extending for 200 metres off the coast and head for the entrance to Rijeka Dubrovacka. Once past the road bridge, continue up the river channel. The deeper water (minimum depths 5.0 metres) is towards the starboard side of the channel.<br />
<br />
The marina, protected from the river current by a long breakwater, will be encountered two miles from the entrance to the inlet. Note that the channel gets shallow on the N side just where the marina starts. The reception berths are on the outside of the breakwater and yachts should berth here to await instructions unless otherwise advised on channel 17.<br />

Fortunately, this is a relatively rare occurrence (last event in April 2010).<br />

| summary= [[Hvar]] is an island which lies off the mainland coast of [[Split]] on the mainland coast of [[Croatia]], at its easternmost point only three miles off the coast. Sandwiched between the islands of [[Brač]] to the N and [[Korčula]] to the S, Hvar is blessed with an unusually benign climate and is thus one of the most popular holiday islands in Croatia. The island has a mountainous spine rising to 628 metres at its highest point south of the town of [[Stari Grad]] and much of its coastline, especially on the S and W sides, is indented with numerous small coves providing anchorages suitable for use in a wide range of wind conditions. Apart from the usual crops of grapes, figs and olive oil, Hvar is particularly noted for the cultivation of lavender, the scent of which pervades the nostrils even several miles offshore at certain times of the year. <br />
<br />
Hvar has plenty to offer the cruising yachtsman, with eight harbours, two marinas and nearly 40 anchorages, of which 18 are listed here. At the western end of Hvar Island is a string of small islands known as the [[Pakleni archipelago]], which constitute a mini cruising ground in their own right.<br />

Milna is a popular beach resort spread across two sandy bays, with the main part of the village in the E bay.

| imagetext= The harbour and town of Porto-Vecchio <br />
}} <br />
The town and harbour of Porto-Vecchio is situated about 25 miles north of [[Bonifacio]] on the south east coast of [[Corsica]]. <br />
<br />
Originally a Roman and later a Genoese port, the region acquired a bad reputation as unhealthy in view of the incidence of malaria caused by the surrounding marshes, which were not drained until the middle of the 20th century. In spite of this, the area has always been an important sea salt producer, a trade which still thrives today. With the draining of the marshes came tourism, with beach bunnies from all over Europe flocking to the superb beaches south of the town. <br />
<br />
The town itself, which retains much of its former fortifications, is attractive and the area around ''Place de la Republique'' has some charming old buildings overlooking its narrow streets. Porto-Vecchio is also a good base for exploring some of the surrounding prehistoric sites such as ''Casteddu d'Araghju''. <br />
<br />
The small harbour contains the ''Port de plaisance'', a well-sheltered 450-berth marina close under the old town on the heights above.<br />

The harbour is at the end of the four mile long Gulf of Porto-Vecchio, which is entered between the lighthouses of ''Punta Chiappa'' and ''Punta San Ciprianu''. The Gulf bends to the south after about three miles and the harbour is a further two miles at the end of the inlet, below the old town - which is very conspicuous. The gulf can be quite a windy spot with winds funnelling up or down the inlet.<br />

<br />
The town, built on a steep hill above the harbour and enclosed by powerful fortifications, is very picturesque when not over-run with tourists. <br />
<br />
Its compact grid of narrow, cobbled streets leads onto the main square, Place de la Republique, ringed with lively bars and cafes where one can people-watch the day away. Some of the defensive bastions remain, and there are splendid views from them down over the harbour and the salt marshes inland. The Genoese Gate facing the harbour gives onto a wonderful prospect of the harbour, sea, and the surrounding mountains. Lining the old city wall here is a row of restaurants (and an excellent pizzeria) with unbeatable views over the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio. <br />
<br />
Around five kilometers north of Porto-Vecchio harbour is the little village of Araghju. The attraction here is the stunningly sited Bronze Age fortification of Casteddu d'Araghju, a 20 minute steep climb up a rough track from the village. The site is one of the best preserved of its kind on the island, with walls in some places as high as four metres.<br />

}} <br />
The town and harbour of Porto-Vecchio is situated about 25 miles north of [[Bonifacio]] on the south east coast of [[Corsica]]. <br />
<br />
Originally a Roman and later a Genoese port, the region acquired a bad reputation as unhealthy in view of the incidence of malaria caused by the surrounding marshes, which were not drained until the middle of the 20th century. In spite of this, the area has always been an important sea salt producer, a trade which still thrives today. With the draining of the marshes came tourism, with beach bunnies from all over Europe flocking to the superb beaches south of the town. <br />
<br />
The town itself, which retains much of its former fortifications, is attractive and the area around ''Place de la Republique'' has some charming old buildings overlooking its narrow streets. Porto-Vecchio is also a good base for exploring some of the surrounding prehistoric sites such as ''Casteddu d'Araghju''. <br />
<br />
The small harbour contains the ''Port de plaisance'', a well-sheltered 450-berth marina close under the old town on the heights above.<br />

<br />
The town, built on a steep hill above the harbour and enclosed by powerful fortifications, is very picturesque when not over-run with tourists. <br />
<br />
Its compact grid of narrow, cobbled streets leads onto the main square, Place de la Republique, ringed with lively bars and cafes where one can people-watch the day away. Some of the defensive bastions remain, and there are splendid views from them down over the harbour and the salt marshes inland. The Genoese Gate facing the harbour gives onto a wonderful prospect of the harbour, sea, and the surrounding mountains. Lining the old city wall here is a row of restaurants (and an excellent pizzeria) with unbeatable views over the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio. <br />
<br />
Around five kilometers north of Porto-Vecchio harbour is the little village of Araghju. The attraction here is the stunningly sited Bronze Age fortification of Casteddu d'Araghju, a 20 minute steep climb up a rough track from the village. The site is one of the best preserved of its kind on the island, with walls in some places as high as four metres.<br />

**Showers & WCs are closed out of office hours. <br />
**On the N quay water taps and electricity are mounted on the wall, which at some distance from the edge of the quay, so a longer hose may be needed to use them -- [[User:Vadp|Vadp]] 09:55, 20 March 2015 (GMT)<br />

'''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corsica Corsica]''' ([[France]]) is the fourth largest island in the [[Mediterranean|Mediterranean Sea]] (after [[Sicily]], [[Sardinia]], and Cyprus). It is located west of [[Italy]], southeast of [[France]], and north of the island of [[Sardinia]]. Corsica is 183 kilometres (114 mi) long at longest, 83 kilometres (52 mi) wide at widest, has 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) of coastline, more than 200 beaches, and is very mountainous, with Monte Cinto as the highest peak at 2,706 metres (8,880 ft) and 20 other summits of more than 2,000 metres (6,600 ft). Mountains comprise 2⁄3 of the island, forming a single chain. Forest comprises 1⁄5. Approximately 3,500 km2 (1,400 sq mi) of the total surface area of 8,682 km2 (3,352 sq mi) are dedicated to nature reserves, mainly in the interior.<br />
<br />
The island is 90 kilometres (56 mi) from Tuscany in [[Italy]] and 170 kilometres (110 mi) from the Côte d'Azur in [[France]]. It is separated from [[Sardinia]] to the south by the Strait of Bonifacio, a minimum of 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) wide.<br />
<br />
Corsica provides a fascinating and very varied cruising ground for yachts, ranging from the superb sweep of the bay of Calvi at the north end of the island, with its marina and numerous mooring buoys, to the awe-inspiring sea cleft and harbour of Bonifacio at the southern end. Other harbours with marina facilities include the capital, Ajaccio and Propriano on the west coast; Porto Vecchio, Solenzara, Campoloro and Bastia on the east coast, and St Florent and L'Ile Rousse on the north coast. In addition, there are numerous delightful anchorages around the island where a yacht can drop the hook overnight in favourable weather. However, a visit to Corsica would be incomplete without a trip inland to the old capital of Corte on the ancient narrow-gauge railway; a bracing walk on the GR20, the long-distance walking route down the mountainous spine of the island; a tour of some of the inland mountain villages of La Castaniccia, the chestnut-producing area around Bastia, and a visit to some of the fascinating megalithic sites dotted around the island. <br />
<br />
A circumnavigation of Corsica could be completed in a week if pushed, but three weeks of even a month would allow for a more relaxed itinerary, including several trips inland. Most yachts on circumnavigation go anti-clockwise, as any strong winds (e.g. the mistral) are most likely to come from the NW, and this route minimises the amount of time a yacht is at risk of a heavy beat to weather.<br />

<br />
==Weather==<br />
Weather conditions are usually benign during the summer, although the north and west coasts of the island are not good places to be if a mistral blows up, as there is a long fetch all the way from the coast of France. Seabreezes are mostly light along the coast, with the exception of the Strait of Bonifacio, where yachts will often encounter winds 2 or 3 Beaufort more than the prevailing breeze. A bracing 4/5 SE will often be experienced as a near-gale 6/7 as you near the Straits.<br />

}} <br />
{{Image right| Calvimoorings.jpg| Moorings in the bay, Calvi }}<br />
<br />
The town of Calvi, tucked into a sheltered bay at the NW corner of the island of [[Corsica]], was little more than a fishing village until the arrival of the Pisans from what is now north [[Italy]] in the tenth century. From then until the 13th century the area was a battleground between Pisa and the other powerful city state of [[Genoa]], the Genoese finally prevailing in 1268, when the town of Calvi was fortified with a powerful citadel. It was during the period of Genoese domination of the island that Christopher Columbus was reputedly born in Calvi, a claim that is supported today by a monument built into the walls of the citadel. The fortifications of the town were further strengthened following the integration of Corsica into the new French Republic in 1789. The town was briefly occupied by English naval forces in 1794, a battle in which the famous English Admiral Nelson lost his eye. Today, Calvi hosts a growing number of tourists during the balmy summer months as well as providing a base for a regiment of the French Foreign Legion, who are often seen running in full kit up the steep mountain trails around Calvi.<br />
<br />
As the closest harbour to the French mainland coast, Calvi is a natural first port of call for yachts heading to the island and on to [[Sardinia]], [[Sicily]] and round the bottom of [[Italy]] to the Adriatic and [[Greece]]. It has both a medium-sized marina and mooring buoys in the bay.<br />

<br />
==Weather==<br />
Calvi Bay is well sheltered in most conditions, even during a mistral. It is, however, exposed in NE winds. Fortunately these are uncommon in the sailing season but more likely to be experienced during the winter months.<br />

''Also see [[World MM Nets|World Cruiser's Nets]]''.<br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
There are no hazards in the approach to Calvi, except the frequent ferry movements. Ferries have right of way into and out of the harbour and yachts should keep well clear. If coming from the French coast, your first sight will be of Cap Revellata at the extreme NW tip of the island. The citadel of Calvi is visible in good conditions on the headland beyond. In poor visibility, you may well scent Corsica before you see it (Napoleon once famously said he could tell the island blindfold just from the pungent odours of the maquis mountain vegetation of the island).<br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
[[Calvi]] is a port of entry/exit to [[France]].<br />
<br />
{{GreenText|Submit details about facilities for checking in - location of immigration & customs, etc.}}<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
Yachts either moor in the marina if there is space or pick up one of the mooring buoys in the bay. Out of season, the choice is between the marina and anchoring in the bay, as the buoys are removed for the winter months, usually from the end of September.<br />
<br />
===Marinas & Yacht Clubs===<br />
The [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-calvi-727 Port de Plaisance] at Calvi has a total of 350 berths, of which 180 are ostensibly reserved for visitors. However, there is usually very little space in here from late June to the end of August. The marina does not usually respond to VHF, so try calling on : +33 (0)495 651060. The marina has good shelter in all conditions except strong NE winds, which are only usually experienced in winter. Depths in the marina are from 1.5 to 4.0 metres. <br />
<br />
You could book a berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-calvi-727 Port Calvi].<br />
<br />
==Anchorages==<br />
Anchorage in the bay is discouraged during the season as the municipality installs several dozen mooring buoys in the bay. If determined to anchor, you will have to go right over to the eastern side of the bay, which is a long way from the town. No anchoring is permitted in the approach to the harbour in view of the frequent ferries.<br />
<br />
==Yacht Repairs and Services==<br />
{{GreenText|List services. If no services are available on the island write "None" and remove all the subsections ('''Marine Stores''', & '''Repairs/Yards''', & '''Fuel, Water, & Electricity'''.}}<br />

====Marine Stores====<br />
{{GreenText|Submit addresses and contact details of marine related businesses that are of interest to cruisers.}}<br />
* <br />
* <br />
<br />
====Repairs/Yards====<br />
Limited repairs. There is a 50T travel lift in the marina. <br />
<br />
====Fuel, Water, & Electricity====<br />
Water and electricity is available in the marina. Water may not be used for washing or boat cleaning, as it is scarce during the summer. There is a fuel dock in the marina.<br />
<br />
==Things to do ashore==<br />
====Tourism====<br />
A walk up to the citadel for the views of the bay is a must - the sunset over the bay is occasionally spectacular. The cathedral and the church of Santa Maria in the citadel are worth a visit. The cathedral has a 16th century Christ of the Miracles, credited with saving Calvi from a combined Turkish and French force in 1553, and is sometimes the venue for interesting concerts. If you get the chance of attending a concert of traditional Corsican polyphony, take it - it's some of the most distinctive choral music you will ever hear. The walk out of town up to the church of Notre Dame de la Serra on top of a high peak overlooking the harbour will get the lungs working and it offers magnificent views over the bay. If you take a picnic, there is a stone table at the base of the statue of the virgin. A little shuttle train trundles along the coast eastwards from Calvi to the village of Alcajola, which has a lovely sandy bay and several family restaurants. Hiring a car or scooter will give you access to the delightful mountain villages of Calenzana, Speluncata and San Antonino or to the stunning gorge of the Foret de Bonifatu. A steep 2-3 hour climb from the latter along part of the GR20 walking path (which traverses the mountainous spine of Corsica) leads up to the Refuge de Carrozzu at 1260 metres, a wild spot surrounded by jagged mountain peaks. Another worthwhile trip is up through the Col de Battaglia, a dizzyingly high pass above Speluncato, to the Foret de Tartagine. The route winds down from the pass for miles, passing through more and more desolate forest and becoming virtually a single track before terminating at a forest lodge from where there are lovely walks along the river and through the forest.<br />

* While in Calvi during August 2002, we attended a very moving performance of Corsican polyphonic sacred chants from the 12th to 16th centuries performed by a traditional Corsican group of six male singers, Tempus Fugit, in the cathedral. If they're still performing, sell your grandmother if you have to to buy a ticket! --[[User:Atheneoflymington|Atheneoflymington]]<br />

}} <br />
St Florent is a pretty former fishing village on the N coast of [[Corsica]], now turned into a yacht harbour. It lies at the head of its own deep bay west of the Cap Corse peninsula and under the brooding mountains of the Patrimonio wine district. The town dates from the 15th century, when the Genoese constructed a citadel here (subsequently rebuilt after the attentions of Admiral Nelson in 1794). It makes a pleasant and secure place to moor a yacht while exploring the nearby wine district or the wild landscape of the Cap Corse peninsula.<br />

==Navigation==<br />
Approach is straightforward once into the bay of St Florent. The church spire and circular citadel are conspicuous from some distance off and the breakwater of the marina will be seen once closer in. Entrance is from the west round the northern breakwater. Entrance is safe in most winds, though a strong northerly sends a swell down onto the breakwater and makes entry difficult.<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
===Marinas & Yacht Clubs===<br />
The marina of [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-saint-florent-724 Saint Florent] has a total of 790 berths, of which 80 are designated for visitors. In practice, however, space in here is tight in high season and it is wise to call ahead. Depths in the harbour range from 1.5 to 3.0 metres (5.0 metres in the outer harbour). Shelter is good from all directions. Yachts are normally directed to berths in the outer harbour, where there are laid mooring lines, water and electricity on concrete quays. Toilets, showers and launderette in the marina. Fuel to port of the entrance. There is also a slipway, 50T crane and a 20T travel hoist. Call on channel 09 for a berth or telephone +33 (0)495 370079. The capitainerie is open 0700 - 2100 (summer); 0800 - 1200 and 1500 - 1800 (winter).<br />
<br />
You could book your berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-saint-florent-724 Port Saint Florent]. Don't wait too much because the Saint Florent is quickly filling up for summer!<br />

====Tourism====<br />
The town of St Florent is pretty and relatively unspoilt, with pastel-coloured houses lining the narrow streets climbing up to its circular citadel. From the citadel, there are fine views of the bay and the mountains behind the town. A short walk out of town is the 12th century Pisan Cathedral of the Nebbio, now known as the church of Santa Maria Assunta. The interior houses an amazing glass cabinet with the mortal remains of St Flor, a 3rd century Roman soldier martyred for his faith, in a beaded costume. The atmospheric mountain village of Patrimonio is only a few kilometers inland, with its impressive church and numerous vineyards (try the Clos Massimi rose). <br />

}} <br />
{{Image right| Calvimoorings.jpg| Moorings in the bay, Calvi }}<br />
<br />
The town of Calvi, tucked into a sheltered bay at the NW corner of the island of [[Corsica]], was little more than a fishing village until the arrival of the Pisans from what is now north [[Italy]] in the tenth century. From then until the 13th century the area was a battleground between Pisa and the other powerful city state of [[Genoa]], the Genoese finally prevailing in 1268, when the town of Calvi was fortified with a powerful citadel. It was during the period of Genoese domination of the island that Christopher Columbus was reputedly born in Calvi, a claim that is supported today by a monument built into the walls of the citadel. The fortifications of the town were further strengthened following the integration of Corsica into the new French Republic in 1789. The town was briefly occupied by English naval forces in 1794, a battle in which the famous English Admiral Nelson lost his eye. Today, Calvi hosts a growing number of tourists during the balmy summer months as well as providing a base for a regiment of the French Foreign Legion, who are often seen running in full kit up the steep mountain trails around Calvi.<br />
<br />
As the closest harbour to the French mainland coast, Calvi is a natural first port of call for yachts heading to the island and on to [[Sardinia]], [[Sicily]] and round the bottom of [[Italy]] to the Adriatic and [[Greece]]. It has both a medium-sized marina and mooring buoys in the bay.<br />
<br />

<br />
==Weather==<br />
Calvi Bay is well sheltered in most conditions, even during a mistral. It is, however, exposed in NE winds. Fortunately these are uncommon in the sailing season but more likely to be experienced during the winter months.<br />

''Also see [[World MM Nets|World Cruiser's Nets]]''.<br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
There are no hazards in the approach to Calvi, except the frequent ferry movements. Ferries have right of way into and out of the harbour and yachts should keep well clear. If coming from the French coast, your first sight will be of Cap Revellata at the extreme NW tip of the island. The citadel of Calvi is visible in good conditions on the headland beyond. In poor visibility, you may well scent Corsica before you see it (Napoleon once famously said he could tell the island blindfold just from the pungent odours of the maquis mountain vegetation of the island).<br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
[[Calvi]] is a port of entry/exit to [[France]].<br />
<br />
{{GreenText|Submit details about facilities for checking in - location of immigration & customs, etc.}}<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
Yachts either moor in the marina if there is space or pick up one of the mooring buoys in the bay. Out of season, the choice is between the marina and anchoring in the bay, as the buoys are removed for the winter months, usually from the end of September.<br />
<br />
===Marinas & Yacht Clubs===<br />
The [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-calvi-727 Port de Plaisance] at Calvi has a total of 350 berths, of which 180 are ostensibly reserved for visitors. However, there is usually very little space in here from late June to the end of August. The marina does not usually respond to VHF, so try calling on : +33 (0)495 651060. The marina has good shelter in all conditions except strong NE winds, which are only usually experienced in winter. Depths in the marina are from 1.5 to 4.0 metres. You could book a berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-calvi-727 Port Calvi].<br />
<br />
==Anchorages==<br />
Anchorage in the bay is discouraged during the season as the municipality installs several dozen mooring buoys in the bay. If determined to anchor, you will have to go right over to the eastern side of the bay, which is a long way from the town.

==Things to do ashore==<br />
====Tourism====<br />
A walk up to the citadel for the views of the bay is a must - the sunset over the bay is occasionally spectacular. The cathedral and the church of Santa Maria in the citadel are worth a visit. The cathedral has a 16th century Christ of the Miracles, credited with saving Calvi from a combined Turkish and French force in 1553, and is sometimes the venue for interesting concerts. If you get the chance of attending a concert of traditional Corsican polyphony, take it - it's some of the most distinctive choral music you will ever hear. The walk out of town up to the church of Notre Dame de la Serra on top of a high peak overlooking the harbour will get the lungs working and it offers magnificent views over the bay. If you take a picnic, there is a stone table at the base of the statue of the virgin. A little shuttle train trundles along the coast eastwards from Calvi to the village of Alcajola, which has a lovely sandy bay and several family restaurants. Hiring a car or scooter will give you access to the delightful mountain villages of Calenzana, Speluncata and San Antonino or to the stunning gorge of the Foret de Bonifatu. A steep 2-3 hour climb from the latter along part of the GR20 walking path (which traverses the mountainous spine of Corsica) leads up to the Refuge de Carrozzu at 1260 metres, a wild spot surrounded by jagged mountain peaks. Another worthwhile trip is up through the Col de Battaglia, a dizzyingly high pass above Speluncato, to the Foret de Tartagine. The route winds down from the pass for miles, passing through more and more desolate forest and becoming virtually a single track before terminating at a forest lodge from where there are lovely walks along the river and through the forest.<br />

* While in Calvi during August 2002, we attended a very moving performance of Corsican polyphonic sacred chants from the 12th to 16th centuries performed by a traditional Corsican group of six male singers, Tempus Fugit, in the cathedral. If they're still performing, sell your grandmother if you have to to buy a ticket! --[[User:Atheneoflymington|Atheneoflymington]]<br />

| summary= Central Venice is arguably the one of the most difficult places in the lagoon to find a berth during high season. However, with careful planning and advance notice, it is usually possible to find a suitable berth at one of the four locations described below or even (with local help) in one of the numerous small basins and boatyards dotted around the outer edges of the central island of Venice.<br />

==Weather==<br />
During the summer months, the prevailing winds in the Adriatic are light to moderate coastal sea breezes. In spring and autumn, northerly winds are more frequent and can quickly rise to near gale force, especially in the northern Adriatic, where the much-feared “bora” is caused by high pressure over the mountains to the NE coupled with low pressure over southern Italy. Fortunately, the fiercest “bora” is normally to be expected in the winter months. Thunderstorms are occasionally experienced in spring and especially autumn and can be accompanied by violent winds of gale force and above. Luckily they are rarely long-lasting. Fog is a further hazard often encountered in the lagoon of Venice, especially in the early and late season.<br />
<br />
Sources for weather information: <br />
<br />
* There is a continuous (computerized voice) weather forecast on VHF 68 - first in Italian and then followed with an English translation. <br />
<br />
* The same forecast is given in Italian and English on VHF coastal stations following a notification on channel 16. <br />
<br />
* Navtex weather forecasts covering the Adriatic are broadcast from stations at Roma, Trieste, Kerkyra (Greece) and Split (Croatia). <br />

<br />
==Islands==<br />
There are a total of 117 small islands in the lagoon, some inhabited but many of them little more than extensive mudbanks. The principal inhabited islands are as follows: <br />
<br />
* [[Torcello]] <br />
* [[Burano]] <br />
* [[Murano]] <br />
* Mazzorbo <br />
* Sant’Erasmo <br />

==Navigation==<br />
Approach to Venice Central is via {{mark | lat= 45.419667 | lon=12.433333 |zoom=14| type= waypoint| name= Porto di Lido}}. Porto di Lido is the principal (and busiest) entrance to the lagoon, giving the most direct access to the centre of Venice. As the deepest channel with depths of over 10 metres, it is also the one used by ferries and large commercial vessels. The ends of the N and S breakwaters are identifiable by conspicuous black and white and red and white painted structures. A fairway beacon is situated around 2.5 miles SE of the entrance, from where a course of 300 degrees brings you safely through the entrance. The safe channel is also indicated by port and starboard markers. The channel is dredged to over 10.0 metres. Entry is best around slack water, since the tides can reach 4.0 knots at springs. <br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
[[{{PAGENAME}}]] is a port of entry for Italy. For details ''see [[Italy#Entrance|Entrance: Italy]]''.<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
Yachts visiting central Venice have four principal berthing options: two on the islands of [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-marina-santelena-5621 Sant’Elena] and [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-vento-di-venezia-403 Certosa Marina] at the E end of Venice, one on the N side of the island of '''San Giorgio Maggiore''' opposite the Piazza San Marco and the range of large yacht berths operated by the agency of ''Venice Yacht Pier'' along the Canale La Guidecca.<br />
<br />
A good option to book a berth online is [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-vento-di-venezia-403 Certosa Marina], located in the heart of Venice. <br />

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kotor Kotor] is situated at the end of the E arm of Kotor Bay, the innermost bay of the Boka Kotorska (Gulf of Kotor) in the northern part of the coast of [[Montenegro]]. It lies some 15 miles by sea from the entrance to the Gulf. The town has a long and rich maritime tradition, trading along sea routes from the E Mediterranean all the way to the Baltic and beyond. Kotor is celebrated for its old town, which is almost perfectly preserved and is a listed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Heritage_Site UNESCO World heritage] site. The bay is part of the deepest natural fjord in the [[Mediterranean|Mediterranean Sea]], and the scenery around it (including the steep mountains which descend almost to the waterfront) is spectacular. The harbour of Kotor caters for vessels of all sizes, from huge luxury liners to small day boats. The inner section of the harbour is operated as a marina, with mooring lines, water and electricity at all berths and can accommodate some 50-60 yachts of up to 50 metres (the latter alongside the outer section of the quay) in depths of 5.0 metres at the inner end to 10 metres or more at the outer. <br />

==Navigation==<br />
There are no dangers in the approach, although it is essential to keep a close watch for large cruise liners when passing through the narrow channel, the Prolaz Verige, that leads into the Bay of Kotor. On close approach, a large monument in a park around 100 metres NNE of the harbour is a good landmark. The yacht berths are in the inner part of the harbour and often will not be seen until you round a large cruise liner moored on the outer quay.<br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
If you need clearance into or out of the country, berth at the Customs Dock, otherwise berth as directed by the marina attendant. <br />

<br />
You could book your berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-port-of-kotor-305 Port of Kotor].<br />
Yachts are berthed stern or bows-to using mooring lines along the NE shore of the inner harbour, which is quayed for a length of half a mile. There is also a short pontoon dividing the 'big ship' part of the quay from the marina, and up to six yachts can also berth alongside here. Most positions are equipped with two mooring lines (which sometimes have long pick-up lines, since quite large yachts also use them, and therefore may cause problems for smaller yachts). There are further berths in depths of 5.0 metres right at the top of the harbour on a short pontoon, also stern or bows-to with laid mooring lines. Water and electricity are available at all berths.<br />
<br />
===Marinas & Yacht Clubs===<br />
There is a yacht club just inside the walls of the old town (through a small opening in the walls 100 metres SE of the fresh fruit and vegetable market that adjoins the walls). The club has toilets and showers which are available for use by visiting yachtsmen.<br />

The old town of Kotor is a delight to explore, with its maze of paved mediaeval streets and old stone buildings, many dating back to the 13th and 14th centuries. The entire old town is free from traffic (but not from tour groups in summer). <br />
Worth visiting are St Tryphon's cathedral, the town's largest church, with its impressive columns and relics of St Tryphon behind an ornate wrought iron screen as well as a wonderful silver gilded altarpiece; St Nicholas' Orthodox church [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:St_Nicolas_Church_Kotor.jpg Saint Nicholas] (rather austere and plain but still impressive in scale) and St Luke's Catholic church [http://www.traveladventures.org/continents/europe/kotor-old-town13.shtml Saint Lukas] (small and very old, with a wonderful painted iconostasis). The three gates of the town date from the 13th to the 16th centuries, the 13th century Gurdic Gate has a clear, bubbling spring just outside; the Sea Gate features a Venetian lion and a carving of Madonnna and Child with St Tryphon and the 16th century River Gate on the N side was constructed to commemorate the town's success in beating off a Turkish attack. Of especial interest to yachtsmen is the Maritime Museum [http://museummaritimum.com/eng/skolstvo.htm Nautical Museum], well laid out in a former palace, with interesting displays of the distinguished maritime history of Kotor and its numerous wealthy sea captains. For the energetic, the walk up the 1350 steps ascending the town walls to the Venetian fortress of St John on the high bluff overlooking the town is rewarded with spectacular views over the Bay of Kotor and beyond.<br />
<br />
====Grocery & Supply Stores====<br />
* Supermarket 200 metres W round the harbour from the yacht quay<br />
* A couple of small minimarkets in the old town<br />
* Fresh fruit and vegetable market under the old town walls opposite the yacht quay.<br />
<br />
====Eateries====<br />
* Numerous cafes, bars and restaurants in the old town (not all good value)<br />
* ''Konoba Scala Santa'' in Trg od Salata square (at the foot of one of the two entrances to the walls) is excellent and better value than the ones in the busier squares). Try the spaghetti marinara. – [[User:Atheneoflymington| Athene of Lymington]]<br />

The inner section of the harbour is operated as a marina, with mooring lines, water and electricity at all berths and can accommodate some 50-60 yachts of up to 50 metres (the latter alongside the outer section of the quay) in depths of 5.0 metres at the inner end to 10 metres or more at the outer. <br />

==Navigation==<br />
There are no dangers in the approach, although it is essential to keep a close watch for large cruise liners when passing through the narrow channel, the Prolaz Verige, that leads into the Bay of Kotor. On close approach, a large monument in a park around 100 metres NNE of the harbour is a good landmark. The yacht berths are in the inner part of the harbour and often will not be seen until you round a large cruise liner moored on the outer quay.<br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
If you need clearance into or out of the country, berth at the Customs Dock, otherwise berth as directed by the marina attendant. <br />

{{Image right|KotorQuay.jpg |Kotor yacht quay }}<br />
{{Image right|KotorPontoon.jpg |Kotor yacht pontoon }}<br />
Yachts are berthed stern or bows-to using mooring lines along the NE shore of the inner harbour, which is quayed for a length of half a mile. There is also a short pontoon dividing the 'big ship' part of the quay from the marina, and up to six yachts can also berth alongside here. Most positions are equipped with two mooring lines (which sometimes have long pick-up lines, since quite large yachts also use them, and therefore may cause problems for smaller yachts). There are further berths in depths of 5.0 metres right at the top of the harbour on a short pontoon, also stern or bows-to with laid mooring lines. Water and electricity are available at all berths.<br />
<br />
===Marinas & Yacht Clubs===<br />
There is a yacht club just inside the walls of the old town (through a small opening in the walls 100 metres SE of the fresh fruit and vegetable market that adjoins the walls). The club has toilets and showers which are available for use by visiting yachtsmen.<br />

{{Image right|KotorOldTown.jpg |Kotor old town }}<br />
{{Image right|KotorMuseum.jpg |Kotor maritime museum }}<br />
The old town of Kotor is a delight to explore, with its maze of paved mediaeval streets and old stone buildings, many dating back to the 13th and 14th centuries. The entire old town is free from traffic (but not from tour groups in summer). <br />
Worth visiting are St Tryphon's cathedral, the town's largest church, with its impressive columns and relics of St Tryphon behind an ornate wrought iron screen as well as a wonderful silver gilded altarpiece; St Nicholas' Orthodox church [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:St_Nicolas_Church_Kotor.jpg Saint Nicholas] (rather austere and plain but still impressive in scale) and St Luke's Catholic church [http://www.traveladventures.org/continents/europe/kotor-old-town13.shtml Saint Lukas] (small and very old, with a wonderful painted iconostasis). The three gates of the town date from the 13th to the 16th centuries, the 13th century Gurdic Gate has a clear, bubbling spring just outside; the Sea Gate features a Venetian lion and a carving of Madonnna and Child with St Tryphon and the 16th century River Gate on the N side was constructed to commemorate the town's success in beating off a Turkish attack. Of especial interest to yachtsmen is the Maritime Museum [http://museummaritimum.com/eng/skolstvo.htm Nautical Museum], well laid out in a former palace, with interesting displays of the distinguished maritime history of Kotor and its numerous wealthy sea captains. For the energetic, the walk up the 1350 steps ascending the town walls to the Venetian fortress of St John on the high bluff overlooking the town is rewarded with spectacular views over the Bay of Kotor and beyond.<br />
<br />
====Grocery & Supply Stores====<br />
* Supermarket 200 metres W round the harbour from the yacht quay<br />
* A couple of small minimarkets in the old town<br />
* Fresh fruit and vegetable market under the old town walls opposite the yacht quay.<br />
<br />
====Eateries====<br />
* Numerous cafes, bars and restaurants in the old town (not all good value)<br />
* ''Konoba Scala Santa'' in Trg od Salata square (at the foot of one of the two entrances to the walls) is excellent and better value than the ones in the busier squares). Try the spaghetti marinara. – [[User:Atheneoflymington| Athene of Lymington]]<br />

}} <br />
Corfu Town, capital of the island of [[Corfu]], is the largest port in the Greek Ionian and a major transport hub for ferries across the Adriatic to Italy and to the Greek mainland at Igoumenitsa. Its international airport is also one of the busiest in Greece, with daily flights to most European destinations. The island has long been popular with European tourists, especially British as a consequence of British rule in the 19th century, and Corfu Town reflects this long tradition, with more tavernas, shops and cafes per square mile than almost anywhere else in Greece. Its architecture is a hectic mix of Venetian, classical and British colonial and in spite of the huge numbers of tourists that throng the town’s streets in summer, Corfu Town is still a delight to explore, with its narrow, sleepy passageways lined with atmospheric Italianate apartment blocks. The visiting yachtsman is perhaps less well served than the land tourist, with limited berthing opportunities consisting of the grimy east basin of the commercial harbour, the cramped, yacht club-managed basins of Mandraki on the N side of the Venetian castle and NAOK on the S side, a couple of reasonably sheltered anchorages and the marina at Gouvia three miles to the NW.<br />

<br />
==Navigation==<br />
The approach to Corfu Town from all directions is largely free of dangers, though there are shoals to the N of Nisos Vidho, the small island half a mile due N of Corfu Town.<br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
Corfu Town is a port of entry. The customs and immigration and port police are situated on the W side of the commercial harbour. Note that there is no longer any customs office at Gouvia Marina, so it will be necessary to travel into Corfu Town if clearing into or out of Greece.<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
As mentioned above, the visiting yachtsman has four main berthing options: Mandraki harbour; NAOK yacht club harbour; the commercial harbour or Gouvia Marina to the NW of the town.<br />
<br />
{{poi | lat= 39.62467 | lon= 19.9275<br />
| type= harbour<br />
| name= Mandraki Harbour<br />
| altname= Μανδράκι<br />
| zoom= 17<br />
| portofentry= y<br />
| image= CorfuB.jpg<br />
| imagetext= Mandraki from the castle <br />
| text= Situated right under the N wall of the prominent Venetian fortress on the headland of Corfu Town, Mandraki harbour is protected from the prevailing NW winds by a long breakwater enclosing laid moorings tailed to buoys or the quay for around 60 yachts. The berths are distributed between the harbour’s S quay and N breakwater. Yachts usually go stern-to the quay and bows-to the breakwater in view of the depths at the latter. Depths at the quay are 1.5 and 3.0 metres (the deepest water being in the centre) and at the breakwater 1.25 – 1.5 metres. &nbsp;Larger boats drawing no more than 2.0m can sometimes berth bows to on the breakwater with care, providing you don't mind seeing just a few cms extra showing on the depth sounder where your keel is.<br />
<br />
The moorings are owned by two separate yacht clubs and visitors are only permitted when members have temporarily vacated their berths. A sign on the breakwater gives a VHF frequency (68) and asks that you contact them prior to entry tel +30 6945377674 Andreas Doukakis. Expect to be met by a harbour official who will guide you to a berth and take your lines. In 2013 the charge was approximately €20 per night inclusive of water and electricity.<br />
<br />
The showers and toilets are not in the best of conditions to say the least but the bar and restaurant fair much better.<br />
<br />
Foot access from Corfu town to the harbour is through the Venetian Castle and may be restricted outside the castle’s opening hours. If you are welcoming crew on board then carrying heavy bags from the castle down to the marina is not an easy task. Taxi's can enter the castle up to a parking spot 200 meters from the harbor. Equally, it is not the most convenient place to re-stock a boat.<br />
<br />
Shelter here is good in the prevailing winds but is likely to be uncomfortable in very strong NW winds.<br />

| portofentry= y<br />
| text= The harbour of the NAOK yacht club lies on the S side of the Venetian castle, next to the anchorage of Garitsas Bay, and is protected from S by an L-shaped breakwater. The harbour is relatively shallow, with depths of 2.5 to 3.0 metres at most. Visiting yachts can moor stern or bows-to on the easternmost part of the breakwater quay, where there are 4-5 laid moorings in depths of 3.0 metres, or use their anchors to moor to the quay towards the eastern end. On the outside of the breakwater are moorings for superyachts. Water and electricity are on the quay. Showers and toilets at the yacht club. Wifi. Café. Shelter is good in the prevailing winds but the harbour would become very uncomfortable and possibly untenable in strong southerlies. The moorings are occasionally affected by swell from large ferries. Contact Andreas at +30 6972 117001 to enquire about a berth.<br />

| text= The only place a yacht may find space here is in the E basin, where there are a number of laid moorings occupied by fishing and other commercial boats. A couple of yachts can, however, go alongside on the end of the rough breakwater, where the depths are around 4.0 metres. However, this is a dirty and depressing place to be and only recommended if you wish to visit customs and immigration and the port police to clear in. Plans have been in place for several years for construct a small marina just E of the commercial harbour and so far a small basin had been completed and mooring bollards installed. There are no apparent works at the moment (2016). Two sewage conducts drain into the harbour giving a rather unpleasant smell and fouled water. However, nothing further has been done to protect the basin from the prevailing winds and the site is currently (September 2012) fenced off as a construction site.<br />

| text= Garitsas Bay lies just S of the Venetian Castle and the NAOK yacht club harbour and has good access to the old town and nice clear water. It offers good shelter from the prevailing NW winds, but is open E and S. Anchor in 5.0 – 8.0 metres wherever there is space. Holding is good in mud, but only once you are well dug in (look for the sandy patches to drop the anchor in). There are steps from the sea up to the road at the root of the NAOK YC mole. Note that these are commonly used by older people to go swimming, and dinghies are a nuisance for them. There are also steps at the elbow of the NAOK YC breakwater and these are better for dinghies. Exit from the YC breakwater to the street is no problem.<br />
<br />
If there is space, even better shelter can be obtained by anchoring under the castle walls just E of the NAOK harbour, taking a line ashore to the rocks if necessary. Depths here are 3.0 – 5.0 metres and holding is good in sand and weed.}}<br />

==Tourism==<br />
Corfu Town has several good museums, including an archaeological museum and a museum of Asian Art. The Venetian Castle is a must; although there is not much to see inside, the views from the battlements are spectacular. The church of St Spiridon in the town houses the remains of the saint in an ornate silver sarcophagus and boasts a beautifully painted ceiling. Further south, the villa of Mon Repos, the birthplace of the Duke of Edinburgh, consort of the British Queen, can be visited. At the end of the peninsula on which it sits is the view everyone knows, out over the tiny former monastery of Kanoni on its island joined to the shore by a narrow causeway. With transport, it is possible to visit the Achilleon 6km S of the town, a pseudo-Hellenic palace contructed for Empress Elizabeth of Austria in the 1890s and filled with specially commissioned statuary and colonnades. <br />

| text= Situated right under the N wall of the prominent Venetian fortress on the headland of Corfu Town, Mandraki harbour is protected from the prevailing NW winds by a long breakwater enclosing laid moorings tailed to buoys or the quay for around 60 yachts. The berths are distributed between the harbour’s S quay and N breakwater. Yachts usually go stern-to the quay and bows-to the breakwater in view of the depths at the latter. Depths at the quay are 1.5 and 3.0 metres (the deepest water being in the centre) and at the breakwater 1.25 – 1.5 metres. &nbsp;Larger boats drawing no more than 2.0m can sometimes berth bows to on the breakwater with care, providing you don't mind seeing just a few cms extra showing on the depth sounder where your keel is.<br />
<br />
The moorings are owned by two separate yacht clubs and visitors are only permitted when members have temporarily vacated their berths. A sign on the breakwater gives a VHF frequency (68) and asks that you contact them prior to entry tel +30 6945377674 Andreas Doukakis. Expect to be met by a harbour official who will guide you to a berth and take your lines. In 2013 the charge was approximately €20 per night inclusive of water and electricity.<br />
<br />
The showers and toilets are not in the best of conditions to say the least but the bar and restaurant fair much better.<br />
<br />
Foot access from Corfu town to the harbour is through the Venetian Castle and may be restricted outside the castle’s opening hours. If you are welcoming crew on board then carrying heavy bags from the castle down to the marina is not an easy task. Taxi's can enter the castle up to a parking spot 200 meters from the harbor. Equally, it is not the most convenient place to re-stock a boat.<br />
<br />
Shelter here is good in the prevailing winds but is likely to be uncomfortable in very strong NW winds.<br />

| portofentry= y<br />
| text= The harbour of the NAOK yacht club lies on the S side of the Venetian castle, next to the anchorage of Garitsas Bay, and is protected from S by an L-shaped breakwater. The harbour is relatively shallow, with depths of 2.5 to 3.0 metres at most. Visiting yachts can moor stern or bows-to on the easternmost part of the breakwater quay, where there are 4-5 laid moorings in depths of 3.0 metres, or use their anchors to moor to the quay towards the eastern end. On the outside of the breakwater are moorings for superyachts. Water and electricity are on the quay. Showers and toilets at the yacht club. Wifi. Café. Shelter is good in the prevailing winds but the harbour would become very uncomfortable and possibly untenable in strong southerlies. The moorings are occasionally affected by swell from large ferries. Contact Andreas at +30 6972 117001 to enquire about a berth.<br />

| text= The only place a yacht may find space here is in the E basin, where there are a number of laid moorings occupied by fishing and other commercial boats. A couple of yachts can, however, go alongside on the end of the rough breakwater, where the depths are around 4.0 metres. However, this is a dirty and depressing place to be and only recommended if you wish to visit customs and immigration and the port police to clear in. Plans have been in place for several years for construct a small marina just E of the commercial harbour and so far a small basin had been completed and mooring bollards installed. There are no apparent works at the moment (2016). Two sewage conducts drain into the harbour giving a rather unpleasant smell and fouled water. However, nothing further has been done to protect the basin from the prevailing winds and the site is currently (September 2012) fenced off as a construction site.<br />

| imagetext= Garitsas Bay <br />
| text= Garitsas Bay lies just S of the Venetian Castle and the NAOK yacht club harbour and has good access to the old town and nice clear water. It offers good shelter from the prevailing NW winds, but is open E and S. Anchor in 5.0 – 8.0 metres wherever there is space. Holding is good in mud, but only once you are well dug in (look for the sandy patches to drop the anchor in). There are steps from the sea up to the road at the root of the NAOK YC mole. Note that these are commonly used by older people to go swimming, and dinghies are a nuisance for them. There are also steps at the elbow of the NAOK YC breakwater and these are better for dinghies. Exit from the YC breakwater to the street is no problem.<br />
<br />
If there is space, even better shelter can be obtained by anchoring under the castle walls just E of the NAOK harbour, taking a line ashore to the rocks if necessary. Depths here are 3.0 – 5.0 metres and holding is good in sand and weed.}}<br />

It is a handy anchorage for visiting the shops and chandleries of Gouvia without having to berth at [[Gouvia Marina]]. Shelter is good from the prevailing winds but the bay is open E and S. Anchor in 5.0 – 8.0 metres. The bottom is mud and weed and good holding. }}<br />

==Tourism==<br />
Corfu Town has several good museums, including an archaeological museum and a museum of Asian Art. The Venetian Castle is a must; although there is not much to see inside, the views from the battlements are spectacular. The church of St Spiridon in the town houses the remains of the saint in an ornate silver sarcophagus and boasts a beautifully painted ceiling. Further south, the villa of Mon Repos, the birthplace of the Duke of Edinburgh, consort of the British Queen, can be visited. At the end of the peninsula on which it sits is the view everyone knows, out over the tiny former monastery of Kanoni on its island joined to the shore by a narrow causeway. With transport, it is possible to visit the Achilleon 6km S of the town, a pseudo-Hellenic palace contructed for Empress Elizabeth of Austria in the 1890s and filled with specially commissioned statuary and colonnades. <br />

<br />
==Location==<br />
There is absolutely nothing nearby. If you wanted a pack of cigarettes, you would have to walk about 15 minutes to the metro station; if the coffee shops are open, then you'd get your cigarettes. Me, I don't smoke, so I did not have this particular issue.<br />
<br />
There is a vending machine near the toilets, and I think I saw sandwiches on it, so the famished and brave may always take this risk.<br />
<br />
Uber ride prices: to Kallithea metro station, €5. To Zea Marina in the Piraeus, €5. From Syntagma Square, after midnight (zero traffic), €7. (2017)<br />

==Transportation==<br />
10 minute walk to Athens Metro station Faliro. <br />
<br />
==Price==<br />
Current price is 35 €/ day for a 12 m sailboat (2013/08). Water and electricity payment is based on consumption.<br />
<br />
Current price is 67.60€/day for 16m sailboat (2017/09). VAT included. There is a fixed €5+VAT charge for connecting 230V power (more for higher voltages). Water and electricity are metered and charged.<br />
<br />
Charges are by the 24-hr period. If you arrive at 10:00 am, your payment secures a berth until 9:59 am the following day. While the warnings on overstaying are stern, we overstayed 4 hours (after one week) but we had as excuse that the in situ coastguard office was closed and had to go to the Piraeus, so they had no objections and applied no pressure on us.<br />

* Еxcellent service. --[[User:Radul|Radul]]<br />
* We spent a night here in September 14 the rates were reasonable and staff friendly. The water was full of detritus and stank. It was made clear that we had 24hrs stay, and had to leave on the hour or pay another day. There was a Greek rock concert in the stadium next door that night so slept was impossible and add to that a local "drifting competition" in the car park outside made the night truly unpleasant. The port police don't seem to come here anymore so I was told I had to get in a taxi and go to Zea to see them. A waste of time and money given out strict 24hr deadline. The wifi within the port worked intermittently at best. <br />
The surrounding area of the marina appears to be a abandoned relic from the Olympics and is very unattractive. It is at least close to the tram lime with easy access to Athens. --[[User:Patrickvela|Patrickvela]]<br />

The Marina di Stabia is a huge new marina situated on the E side of the Bay of Naples two miles N of the harbour of [[Castellammare di Stabia]] and 14 miles SE of the commercial port of [[Naples]]. The marina has two basins, a small northern basin with a boatyard, lift-out point and technical area, and a large southern basin with over 800 berths for yachts of up to 75 metres. Shelter here is excellent in all conditions.<br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Contact Marina di Stabia on VHF channel 69 prior to entry. For advance reservations, telephone or e-mail (details below).<br />

The marina development and the industrial buildings behind it are conspicuous from some distance. In the approach from N, an above-water rocky patch 500 metres offshore and half a mile N of the marina is to be avoided. From the S, stay at least 300 metres offshore to avoid the dangerous submerged moles protecting the beach from erosion. The marina is entered from SSE between the end of the long protective breakwater and the shore.<br />

* When Meltemi is strongly blowing there is some swell inside the marina. It is tenable but a little bit noisy. Hopefully when the Marina will be less empty other yachts will absorb some of the naughty swell. <br />

<br />
==Berthing==<br />
[https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-alimos-111 Alimos Marina] or Kalamaki is large marina, and it offers over 400 berths. The marina is usually very crowded with local boats and charter fleets that maintain permanent berths. <br />
<br />
You could book your berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-alimos-111 Alimos Marina] on [https://www.marinareservation.com Marina Reservation].<br />
<br />
You may be able to rouse the attendants to direct you to where to go. It does provide very good all weather shelter. The marina is operated by the municipality of Alimos and the level of service can only be kindly described as indifferent. Unfortunately the marina rates are astronomical.<br />
<br />
There are laid moorings and you do not have to anchor. But the attendants are not always there to help you.<br />
<br />
==Facilities==<br />
The marina facilities are basic, i.e. toilets & showers (not very clean). Arrangements for fuel can usually be made for a mini-tanker delivery at the dock. Unfortunately the tanker operators are not very keen to deliver the small amount of fuel that a sail boat requires. There is gas station about 3 blocks away on the main highway.<br />
<br />
==Motorbike & Car Rentals==<br />
Arrangements can be made with most major companies. They will deliver and pick-up at the marina.<br />
<br />
==Repairs==<br />
Several privates companies operate from the marina. You have to make special arrangements with them for haul-out or repairs. Some are:<br />
<br />
* The Mpekatoros brothers in Athens (tel. +30 210 92 28 146) have a complete machine shop and specialize in the service of Diesel engines.<br />
* There is an outboard shop in Glyfada.<br />
* Mr. Petros Filipakis (+30 210 89 91 577, +30 6944 440 272) is a good marine electrician but hard to get.<br />
* For instrument and VHF repairs contact Mr. Theodoros Skordilis (+30 210 41 81 797), his company represents ''Raymarine'' and may other brands.<br />
* Chronis Papamichael and his wife Rena (+30 210 98 42 010) can make and repair any kind of sail.<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
None<br />
<br />
==Location==<br />
Very close to many stores, including some excellent chandleries. The tram-line stops right next to marina, so transportation to Athens and Piraeus is very good. Taxis are also available.<br />
<br />
Of particular interest are:<br />
* There is a ''AB'' super market for provisioning. They will deliver to your boat.<br />
* There is a ''Carrefour Express'' supermarket right outside the marina. Its next to Hotel Poseidon on the other side of the road from the marina on the north-west end of the marina.<br />
* On the highway to Athens in Kalamaki there several yachting stores including the well stocked ''Pelagos'' just accross from the marina.<br />
<br />
==Transportation==<br />
''See above''.<br />
* Transport to and from the airport with the X96 express bus which go between Athens airport and Piraeus. It stops right outside the marina, very convenient. €5 per person.<br />
* Taxi to/from airport about €45.<br />
<br />
==Price==<br />
Prices are very high for the service or lack thereof provided. Last published list is for [http://www.alimos-marina.gr/docs/PRICELIST%202007.pdf 2007].<br />

Mykonos Marina (known locally as the New Port) &nbsp;is a partly finished marina located around two kilometres north of the old harbour and town of Mykonos. It provides good shelter from the prevailing winds and is quiet, being some distance from the main town. Until recently something of a 'free for all' by 2015 a harbour master was on site, new electricity and water pylons were available throughout and chaos was diminished. <br />
''See link to: [http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=274775 Yachting and Boating World Forum]'' for recent extensive discussions on the improvements to Mykonos Marina. <br />

<br />
==Navigation==<br />
There are no dangers in the approach. Usually there will be one or more large cruise ships moored on the outside of the marina breakwater to help identify it. The marina is entered from SE. Depths in the entrance are 5.0 - 6.0 metres. <br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
This marina is a port of entry/exit.<br />

==Berthing==<br />
<br />
You could be assisted to book a berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-mikonos-marina-215 Marina Mikonos].<br />
<br />
<br />
''See [https://www.marinareservation.com/search/results?SearchForm%5BDestination%5D=mykonos map of yacht berthing] options (as at March 2019)''. Visiting yachts normally berth stern/bows-to or alongside in the two basins immediately to starboard on entering the marina. The basins consists of a short breakwater extending from the shore and protecting the marina from SE and two parallel concrete jetties 100 metres and 200 metres further into the marina. Ground chains are in place for laid lines in both bays. Laid lines are in service on the South side of the North quay and near the root of the south quay. Once these are taken, yachts need to use their anchors (with great care as there are mooring chains along both sides of the basin). A safer alternative is to go alongside on the shore side of the basin. Depths alongside here are greater than 3 metres. Depths along the jetty and breakwater range from 4.25 metres at the root to 4.5 metres at the end. The basin is the least sheltered part of the marina and gusts will be experienced with strong northerly winds. The basin is also subject to some swell, especially in strong S winds. Boats will also tie stern to the outside of the breakwater. Depths are greater than 3 metres from the mid point out. <br />
<br />
There are a further 30 laid moorings for larger (20-25 metre) yachts on the marina’s south west quay (on the inside of the section where the cruise liners berth), but these are usually filled with local power boats and a visiting yacht will be lucky to find a berth here. <br />
<br />
<br />
Port Manager, Nikos, is present every day, including in winter. Call Ch.12 for help.<br />
<br />
==Facilities==<br />
Water and electricity (prepaid system) is available throughout the marina. Fuel by mini tanker only. No other facilities. Well stocked Minimart nearby 0700 - 23:00.<br />
<br />
==Repairs==<br />
Nothing in the marina, but for the whole high season (starting 15 April) there is a trailer which is a fixed service station for charter boats: can also help. In town, in the very center, there is a good chandlery (in a cave). Reasonable prices, open all year around.<br />

==Security==<br />
Poor. Its only protection is its remoteness from the town. <br />
<br />
==Location==<br />
The marina is about half an hour's walk from the town and its attractions. <br />
<br />
There are a couple of good restaurants close to the marina.<br />
<br />
''Matthews Taverna'' across the street has good food but tourist prices. Servings are large. <br />
<br />
''Oregano'', 1km away on a good walk up the hill, should be taken into account: open all year around, it is a restaurant for Greeks, with fresh food and reasonable (cheap) prices. Can deliver all food at anytime in the Marina.<br />
<br />
==Transportation==<br />
Car/scooter hire outlet opposite the marina. Regular bus service into town during the season. Also local taxis 22890 22400 are very inexpensive at €5-8 into town. Sea Bus leaves from the Marina to town on the half hour until 21:30 - €2<br />
<br />
==Price==<br />
The marina is run by the Town of Mykonos. There are offices of both the port police and the Port Authority. Charges are the same as all other city marina in Greece: about 140€ month for a 35ft.<br />
<br />
{{Comments}}<br />
* Some much needed improvements have been made during 2011 (see link above) and Mykonos Marina is now slightly more yacht-friendly than it used to be. However, considerable additional investment is needed to bring it up to an acceptable marina standard. --[[User:Atheneoflymington|Athene of Lymington]] 13:24, 11 July 2011 (BST)<br />
<br />
* We've spent winter 2014/2015 aboard in a 35ft. Reasonable price (140€ month mooring + electricity 0.6€ per Kw/h); we've used two new mooring line and stay moored bow side, looking north est in the inside of the basin. Some days winter at 50knots has been hard, but there is no big surge coming in from outside: I would suggest to live aboard and to not leave the boat along for too long time. Nikos, the port manager, have been present every day, with any weather: very helpful, available with mobile 24x7. The town makes strong effort to welcome yachts. The only annoying is the summer boat-bus that takes tourists from here to town: it's captain enter end exit the harbour at high speed, creating a dangerous surge suggesting to have tight lines but watch out of the (little but still present tide). For this reason I suggest to avoid the local sea bus and walk into town (it's just 1km away: a good walk for our weak sailor's legs), or at least tell the captain he should respect the law and enter end leave the harbour at reasonable speed. --[[User:Francescor|Francescor]] 16:34, 14 April 2015 (BST)<br />
<br />
* When we visited in May 2012, the harbour was deserted. It is now quite crowded especially on weekends. The establishment of a harbourmaster and electricity and water services are excellent. The remaining issue is all the fouled anchors on the ground chain. [[User:Monterey|Monterey]] June 2015<br />
<br />
* We visited in June 2016. Pretty busy and not always a space free. Fouled anchors is almost inevitable either on the large ground chain that was laid for mooring lines (but not used) or from neighbours boats, In the northern section the space between quays is tight so you would only have 30m chain out even when dropping level with the bow of the opposite boat. Across the southern section the gap is about 50m, so better if it's windy. It is probably a good idea to snorkel and check your anchor before trying to leave. Water on the quay is very low pressure. The wash from the water taxi is a real problem. There are obviously plans to improve the marina as there are half completed shop shells and various concrete bloacks. However, I will avoid the marina at least till I hear that mooring lines have been laid. It is a shame as it otherwise is in a good location for crew change over. --[[User:Zebahdy of London|Zebahdy of London]] June 106<br />

I have maintained my boat here for many years until 1999. While they have good technicians I was finally fed up with long waits after which work was done in a hasty manner, unkept promises, and very high prices. I do not recommend the yard.--[[User:Istioploos|Istioploos]]<br />

{{Comments}}<br />
* I have kept a boat at Olympic Marine off and on since 1985. While it is true that in the past it was difficult to get work done in a timely manner this is no longer the case. My 10,30m catamaran has wintered on the hard here since 2008 and I have nothing but praise for the current management and staff. All work has been done promptly and at a reasonable price. My annual contract allows me to stay on the hard for 1 year and includes haul and launch plus a couple of days in the water. The price this year (2013-14) is 2700 euros and this includes the 23% value added tax. Also, as a result of the economic crisis the Marina is no longer as crowded as it was in the past. Bathrooms are clean and there is a restaurant and chandlery on site. --[[User:Daphnoula|Daphnoula]]<br />

{{Comments}}<br />
* I have kept a boat at Olympic Marine off and on since 1985. While it is true that in the past it was difficult to get work done in a timely manner this is no longer the case. My 10,30m catamaran has wintered on the hard here since 2008 and I have nothing but praise for the current management and staff. All work has been done promptly and at a reasonable price. My annual contract allows me to stay on the hard for 1 year and includes haul and launch plus a couple of days in the water. The price this year (2013-14) is 2700 euros and this includes the 23% value added tax. Also, as a result of the economic crisis the Marina is no longer as crowded as it was in the past. Bathrooms are clean and there is a restaurant and chandlery on site. --[[User:Daphnoula|Daphnoula]]<br />

The inlet of Bonifacio in [[Corsica]] is one of the most spectacular natural harbours in the Mediterranean. Situated at the head of a deep fjord, the berths are protected from winds coming from any quarter. <br />
<br />
Bonifacio is the closest harbour to the Italian island of [[Sardinia]] and is an enjoyable place to wait for the winds to die down before crossing the Strait of Bonifacio.<br />

==Weather==<br />
The Strait of Bonifacio is one of the windiest places in the western Mediterranean, regularly experiencing nearly gale force winds whenever the prevailing winds are much above force 4/5. <br />
<br />
With anything east or west in the winds (which is most of the time), the winds are funnelled through the gap between [[Corsica]] and [[Sardinia]] and the seas whipped up into an unpleasant short swell. <br />
<br />
Consequently, the harbour is often filled with yachts waiting for a clear passage across the Strait or round to [[Porto-Vecchio]].<br />

The town takes its name from Boniface II, ruler of Tuscany, who built the first citadel here to protect the southern limit of his domain from Saracen pirates. <br />
<br />
The best experience in Bonifacio is simply wandering around the steep and narrow streets of the ''Haut Ville'' before lunching in one of its many shady cafés. The south side of the old town is built right on the cliffs overlooking the windswept ''Bouches de Bonifacio'' and has spectacular views in good weather over to the north coast of Sardinia.

The port of Sami lies on the E coast of the island of [[Kefalonia]] in [[Greece]], 13 miles SSE of [[Fiskardo]] and just over four miles SE of [[Ayia Eufimia]]. It is the main ferry port on the E coast of the island and has a sheltered harbour protected by breakwaters with berths for around 30-35 visiting yachts. Shelter is good in most conditions, although some berths feel quite exposed in strong winds from W round to NE as the breakwaters are quite low. In particular, berths on the W quay can become uncomfortable with strong W or NW winds as a swell penetrates through the arches on which this quay is built. The town, while architecturally unexciting, has plenty of tavernas, good provisions and a wide range of shops.<br />

==Navigation==<br />
There are no dangers in the approach to Sami. The harbour lies at the SE corner of a large bay, Sami Bay, protected from W round to E by two long breakwaters extending N and W from the shore. It is identifiable from distance by the numerous buildings behind the port and the red painted light structure on the N breakwater. Be careful not to confuse it with the small craft harbour half a mile to the W, which is too shallow for all but small yachts.<br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
[[Sami]] is a port of entry. Customs and port police offices are next to the ferry quay.<br />
{{hold vertical}}<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
You could book your berth online in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-sami-181 Marina Sami].<br />
<br />
There are three principal berthing options in Sami, the W quay, where most yachts moor, the S quay and the N or ferry quay (both the latter are usually alongside berths).<br />
===Ports===<br />
====W Quay====<br />
{{Image right|SamiWQuay.jpg |Yachts anchor moored on W quay (note arches)<br />''Click for larger view }}<br />
This is where most yachts usually berth as it has the greatest number of space. In all, up to 25 yachts can anchor moor to the quay in depths ranging from 2.5 metres at the inner end to 3.5 metres at the outer end. The quay is plentifully supplied with bollards and mooring rings. Holding is good in mud and shelter good in most conditions, although strong W and NW winds send some swell through the arches on which the quay is built.<br />
{{hold vertical}}<br />
<br />
====S Quay====<br />
{{Image right|SamiSQuay.jpg |Yachts alongside on S quay }}<br />
Some 4-5 yachts can berth alongside here in depths of 4.0 – 5.0 metres. Again, there are plenty of bollards and rings on the quay. Shelter is good in winds from S round to NW, although strong N winds cause a chop across the harbour.<br />
{{hold vertical}}<br />
<br />
====N Quay====<br />
{{Image right|SamiNQuay.jpg |Yachts alongside on N quay (ferry quay) }}<br />
Finally, around 5-6 yachts can berth alongside on the N quay, on the end of which the car ferries berth. Depths here range from 5.5 metres at the outer end to 4.0 metres at the inner end. Shelter here is good in all but strong S winds, when there is a chop across the harbour, or strong W winds, which send some swell through the entrance. This position offers good shelter in winds from N round to E, especially if tucked in behind the inner section where the wall is higher. It is noisy here when the ferry arrives.<br />

Sami is a rather unprepossessing place, but with transport it is possible to explore the surrounding area. From here it is possible to visit the Cave of Melissani, an underground lake fed by a subterranean stream which flows all the way across the island from Argostoli. The cave is two kms NW of Sami along the road to Ayia Eufimia. It is best to visit around midday, when the sun streams down through the roof and turns the water below the colour of turquoise. Boatmen row visitors around the cave. Five kms inland from Sami off the road to Argostoli is the Drogarati Cave, a huge grotto with numerous stalactites, so large that it is even used as an occasional concert venue. Unfortunately, at Euros 5 the admission price is not good value, since although there are more stalactites than you can shake a stick at, someone already has and there are now few unbroken ones to be seen. A stiff uphill climb from the S end of the town brings you to the ancient Acropolis of Sami, of which only a few sections of the monumental walls and gateways remain but from which there are stunning views over the bay of Sami.<br />

* I stopped by here for breakfast and a swim. Lots of traffic on the north quay, mostly larger motor yachts coming in to refuel. At that time of day I found it to be a quiet, sleepy place, basking in the tranquillity of the mountain setting. The noisiest thing was the fuel truck, driven alarmingly quickly! The penchant for super loud scooter exhausts had not made its way there, all allowing me to enjoy the good food and better service of one of the tavernas. [[User:BenPikeUK|BenPikeUK]]<br />

<br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiskardo Fiskardó] (Φισκαρδό) or Fiskardho or Phiscardo is a charming and well sheltered small harbor at the NE end of [[Kefalonia]]. The name of the town is a corruption of its Norman overlord's name [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Guiscard Robert Guiscard]. Because the town was not destroyed by the 1953 earthquake that flattened most of Kefalonia, it is the most architecturally picturesque town on the island and, as a result, tourists flock here. The small harbour is almost always crowded and it pays to arrive early, especially during the peak months of July and August. Even arriving as early as mid-day, it is more than likely your only option will be to anchor on the N side of the harbour with lines ashore. Shelter in the harbour is excellent in the prevailing NW winds but becomes uncomfortable in strong S or SE winds. <br />

<br />
==Navigation==<br />
There are no dangers in the approach. Fiskardo harbour can be difficult to spot when arriving from N, but the old Venetian lighthouse on the headland on the N side and the taller, modern lighthouse above it are conspicuous once close in. Beware of ferries entering and leaving at speed, which will not be seen until around the headland if approaching from N. <br />
<br />
==Entrance==<br />
Fiskardo is not a port of entry. The nearest ports of entry on the island are [[Argostoli]] or [[Sami]]. <br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
Visting yachts have a number of options for mooring in the harbour. Unfortunately, the pontoons which used to be in place on the W side of the harbour have been removed by order of the Greek authorities and have been dumped on the S quay, considerably reducing the number of berthing spaces and blocking the section of the S quay with the best depths for mooring.<br />
<br />
If you want, you could be assisted to book a [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-fiskardo-marina-kefalonia-179 berth in Marina Kiskardo], online.<br />
<br />
<br />
Currently yachts have the following berthing options: <br />
<br />
====Breakwater quay====<br />
Around 10-12 yachts can anchor moor to the short breakwater at the SE end of the harbour, although half of the inner side is reserved for use by a passenger ferry and will have to be vacated if a ferry is due. Depths along the inner and outer sides and on the end are less than a metre owing to rock ballasting, but are 3.0 - 4.0 metres just off. Mooring is to stainless steel rings on the top of the quay. <br />
<br />
====South quay====<br />
Some 6-8 yachts can anchor moor on the south quay, where there are also 2-3 private laid moorings to be avoided. Depths range from 1.0 metre at the E end to 1.5 metres at the W end, again owing to ballasting and a short ledge at the waterline, but are 3.0 – 3.5 metres just off. Mooring is to stainless steel rings on the quay or rusty iron ones on the quay wall. The western section of the quay, which has better depths of 1.5 – 2.0 metres, is currently (2013) blocked with disused pontoons. <br />
<br />
====West quay====<br />
Around 6-8 yachts can anchor moor on this quay in depths of 2.0 metres at S end, 3.0 metres in centre and 2.5 metres at N end. There are also a few private laid moorings along the quay. If not in use by tripper boats, there is also room for 2-3 yachts on the end of the short jetty at the N end of quay in depths of 3.0 metres. Mooring is to stainless steel rings and/or two bollards (hard to spot since they are amongst the taverna tables). <br />
<br />
====Ferry jetty====<br />
There are possible overnight berths for 2-3 yachts on anchor moor on the ferry quay on the N side of the harbour, just E of the small shingle beach. Yachts mooring here will need to leave before 11.00 as a ferry uses it. Depths here are from 3.25 metres at the W end to 1.5 metres at the E end. <br />

<br />
===Marinas & Yacht Clubs===<br />
None.<br />
<br />
==Anchorages==<br />
Along the N shore of the harbour there is a good anchorage for 10-12 yachts in depths of 10-12 metres, taking lines ashore to stainless steel rings set into the rocks. Holding is only moderate in sand and some weed, so make sure your anchor is well dug in. Shelter here is good in all but strong E or S winds. <br />
<br />
There are also several very attractive fjord-like coves S of Fiskardó (''see [[Kefalonia]]'').<br />

==Tourism==<br />
Fiskardo is a gem of a place, its quays lined with pastel-coloured houses in the Venetian style and the harbour a constant bustle of activity. It is deservedly popular, and hence invariably thronged with tourists, both land- and yacht-based. There is a good walk from the N end of the harbour through the trees out to the old Venetian lighthouse and around the headland to the N. Close to the path is the ruins of a Norman church, said to have been erected in memory of Robert Guiscard. <br />

The town of Trogir lies on a small island situated between the large island of Ciovo to the S and the Croatian mainland to the N. The city of [[Split]] with its international airport and good transport links is only 25 kms away. The ACI Marina Trogir lies on the S side of the channel leading into Trogir, on the northern shore of the island of Ciovo. It provides 162 berths for yachts up to 25 metres in depths of up to 6.0 metres. The marina should not be confused with the [[SCT Marina Trogir]] immediately to the west, which is now managed by Camper & Nicholson.<br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call ACI Marina Trogir on VHF channel 17 prior to entry. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to enquire about berthing or advance reservations. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
Trogir is joined to the island of [[Ciovo]] by a low road bridge, which dictates that yachts must approach the town from W. There are no dangers in the approach, although the coast to the N of the channel is shallow and a yacht should not approach too close. Depths at the entrance to the channel are around 10 metres, shoaling to 4.0 metres near the road bridge. Note that there is usually an adverse current flowing W under the bridge, which can make manoeuvring difficult. Fortunately, the current is slightly weaker inshore where the marina is sited, on the S side of the channel directly opposite the waterfront of the old town.<br />

The marina is situated at the W end of the large commercial harbour of Split on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]]. Split has good international transport links by ferry, road and air, with an airport only 20 kms away and regular ferries to the Italian ports of Ancona, Pescara and Bari. Operated by the government-owned ACI Group, Marina Split offers 355 berths for yachts up to 80 metres in depths of up to 3.0 metres. <br />
<br />
Next to the marina, but deeper into the harbour there is a couple of sailing clubs: [http://www.jklabud.hr/ Jedriličarski klub "Labud"] (160 wet berths,tel. +385 21 398-583), [http://www.jk-mornar.hr/ Jedrilicarski klub Mornar] (45 wet berths, no visitors) and a private company [https://www.navaboats.com/ Nautika centar Nava] (tel. +385 21 407 700).<br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call Marina Split on VHF channel 10 prior to entry. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to enquire about berthing or advance reservations. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
There are no hazards in the approach to Split, although the coast on either side of the main harbour has a number of isolated rocks and should not be approached too closely. The city is easily identified from some distance off by a tall, disused lighthouse just E of the harbour entrance and the buildings of the city behind. Ferries enter and leave the harbour at speed and caution is needed on the final approach. The marina lies at the W end of the harbour and is entered from NNE between a long breakwater (marked with a red tower) and the shore. There are offlying rocks along the shore, marked with two green starboard buoys. <br />
<br />

Marina Dubrovnik is situated two miles inland of the commercial harbour of Gruz near Dubrovnik on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]]. The marina is operated by the Croatian government-owned ACI group and provides 425 berths for yachts up to 75 metres in depths of up to 5.0 metres. The marina is very popular with visiting yachts during the season and space can be scarce. The marina is a 15 minute bus ride from the centre of Dubrovnik old town. <br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Call Marina Dubrovnik on VHF channel 17. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to enquire about berthing. <br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
In the approach from N, leave the islet of Otocic Daksa to starboard and steer for the road bridge at the entrance to the inlet of Rijeka Dubrovacka, passing the commercial harbour of Gruz to starboard (you will need to call in at Gruz to clear in if arriving from abroad). Approaching from S, leave the rocky archipelago of Hridi Grebeni to starboard (the outermost islet has a lighthouse on it) and then the islet of Otocic Daksa to port. Pass N of the beacon of Plicina Vranac, which marks shoals extending for 200 metres off the coast and head for the entrance to Rijeka Dubrovacka. Once past the road bridge, continue up the river channel. The deeper water (minimum depths 5.0 metres) is towards the starboard side of the channel. The marina, protected from the river current by a long breakwater, will be encountered two miles from the entrance to the inlet. Note that the channel gets shallow on the N side just where the marina starts. The reception berths are on the outside of the breakwater and yachts should berth here to await instructions unless otherwise advised on channel 17.<br />

{{Image right|MarinaPiskeraPlan.jpg |Plan of Marina Piskera }}<br />
<br />
'''Marina Piškera''' lies on a small islet, ''Vela Panitula'', off the S coast of the island of ''Piškera'' in the archipelago of [[Kornati Islands]] in [[Croatia]]. The berths are located at the narrow channel between Piskera and Vela Panitula.<br />
<br />
The marina, which opens from 1 April to 31 October only, offers a total of 118 berths for yachts up to 30 metres in depths of up to 3.5 metres. The marina is safe in most wind conditions, but becomes very uncomfortable with strong S winds. <br />
<br />
Because of its isolated position, water and electricity are rationed by only being available at restricted hours (and a substantial charge is made). <br />
<br />
==Location==<br />
The marina is situated on the S side of the island of Piskera about two miles SW of the larger island of [[Kornat]] in the [[Kornati Islands]] archipelago. This is the only marina in the Kornati National Park. The other one in this archipelago -- [[Marina Zut]] -- is outside of the park.<br />
<br />
==Navigation==<br />
The approach to Marina Piskera is largely free of dangers, although there are numerous islets and reefs and a large scale chart is needed. From N, a yacht passes through the narrow channel between Piskera and Mala Lavsa islands before turning to starboard to enter the marina from SE, leaving the islet of Mala Panitula to port. From S, a yacht can either leave Mala Panitula to port on entering or pass between Vela Panitula islet and the reef of Skanji Veli about 150 metres off its SE tip. This channel is very narrow, but depths are 7.0 metres. Shelter inside the marina is good in most conditions, but strong S winds make it very uncomfortable. Note that the N channel between Piskera and Vela Panitula at the top end of the marina is shallow and rocky and impassable by a yacht.<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
Book your berth instantly in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-aci-marina-pi-scaron-kera-2661 ACI Marina Piskera]. This means you can choose available dates and book your berth immediately, without sending a booking request.<br />
Berthing assistance available on request. <br />
<br />
Visiting yachts berth stern/bows-to at one of six pontoons extending N from the islet of Vela Panitula. Depths on the pontoons range from 2.5 to 3.5 metres. Deeper draft yachts berth on the end of the central pontoons. Laid moorings at all berths. Yachts over 25 metres berth on the reception pontoon.<br />
<br />
==Facilities==<br />
* Reception desk<br />
* Money exchange<br />
* Restaurant ''Klif'' <br />
* Grocery store<br />
* Toilets<br />
* Showers<br />
<br />
{{Note}} There is also an independent ''konoba'' at the Piškera proper just across a narrow passage from the marina. The owner provides a transfer.<br />
<br />
==Repairs==<br />
None.<br />
<br />
==Security==<br />
Moderate.<br />
<br />
==Mobile connectivity==<br />
While voice connectivity is fine there, the mobile internet, at least for Tele2 SIM, is only 2G (GPRS) and its performance is virtually useless (perhaps due to congestion).<br />
<br />
==Transportation==<br />
None.<br />
<br />
==Price==<br />
As of 2016 daily berthing price <br />
;For 10 metre yacht:<br />
* mid-Jul and Aug -- 58 EUR<br />
* Jun-mid-Jul, Sep Su-Th -- 51 EUR<br />

The marina of Porto Montenegro lies at the town of Tivat at the head of the gulf of the same name on the coast of [[Montenegro]], around two miles S of the entrance to the Gulf of Kotor further inland. Formerly a naval shipyard named Arsenal, which fell into disuse after the Yugoslav Wars and the decline of the SFR Yugoslav Navy, the site was<br />
bought by Canadian businessman Peter Munk and transformed into a luxury yacht marina and a waterfront community, which caters to the needs of growing community of superyacht owners. Tivat’s position, together with the proximity of Tivat Airport, makes it a favourable location for a marina. The marina has berths for 650 yachts, 150 of them super yachts, up to 150m long. The waterfront community behind the main docks features about 250 condo units, conference centre, a market square, an art gallery, a museum, a sports complex and 10,000 square metres of retail space, including a supermarket and a department store. A Four Seasons 5 star hotel is almost complete (May 2013).<br />

==Navigation==<br />
The approach is easy. As you head E down Tivatski Zaliv (Gulf of Tivat) look for the huge crane painted with red and white horizontal stripes that marks the marina. When close to the marina keep an eye out for the pilings for the marina's expansion. They are marked as isolated danger marks<br />
<br />
==Berthing==<br />
If you don't want any stress regarding your berth, make your berth booking request in [https://www.marinareservation.com/marina-porto-montenegro-marina-306 Porto Montenegro Marina] using an online berth booking platform.<br />
<br />
Marina Assistance is available from the helpful staff, who all speak perfect english. Tivat is an all year port of entry. You can complete all paperwork at the marina. On approach and arriving from outside of Montenegro, ask the staff if you should go to the customs quay or straight to the berth. If you go to the berth, the marina staff will deal with all the paperwork.<br />
