| summary= The town of Termoli lies on the Adriatic coast of [[Italy]] 10 miles WNW of the Promontorio del Gargano, the ‘spur’ projecting from the ‘boot’ of the peninsula. It is a popular resort with a historic walled old town and a distinctively-shaped Norman castle. Since September 2009, with the completion of a new, small marina, [[Marina di San Pietro]], immediately S of the commercial port, Termoli now provides berthing for over 300 yachts of up to 30 metres. The town’s good beaches and proximity to the Gargano National Park attract several thousand, mostly Italian, tourists to the town and its surrounding area each year. Termoli is also an important port of embarkation for visitors to the [[Tremiti Islands]] 25 miles ENE of the harbour.

During the summer months the prevailing winds in the Adriatic are light to moderate coastal seabreezes.  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.  In the southern Adriatic, the “scirocco”, a S/SE wind blowing up from North Africa which can last for several days, is more common.  Unlike the “bora”, which can arrive without warning, a “scirocco” tends to build in strength over 24-48 hours, sometimes reaching gale force (especially in winter).

The walled town standing proud on an easily-defended peninsula is conspicuous from distance.  The harbour is entered from SE, holding a course about 50 metres inside the outer breakwater, the Diga Foranea, to clear the shoal water extending over 100 metres E from the new marina breakwater to port.  Depths in the entrance are 5.0 - 6.0 metres.  Entry can be difficult in strong SE winds.  If berthing in the commercial harbour, turn to port once through the entrance for the berths run by the Marinucci Yachting Club on the south mole.  If berthing in the new marina, enter through the narrow entrance between the south mole and the new marina breakwater.

Termoli harbour from E, prior to the construction of the marina

The town of Termoli lies on the Adriatic coast of Italy 10 miles WNW of the Promontorio del Gargano, the ‘spur’ projecting from the ‘boot’ of the peninsula. It is a popular resort with a historic walled old town and a distinctively-shaped Norman castle. Since September 2009, with the completion of a new, small marina, Marina di San Pietro, immediately S of the commercial port, Termoli now provides berthing for over 300 yachts of up to 30 metres. The town’s good beaches and proximity to the Gargano National Park attract several thousand, mostly Italian, tourists to the town and its surrounding area each year. Termoli is also an important port of embarkation for visitors to the Tremiti Islands 25 miles ENE of the harbour.

Weather

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. In the southern Adriatic, the “Scirocco”, a S/SE wind blowing up from North Africa which can last for several days, is more common. Unlike the “bora”, which can arrive without warning, a “scirocco” tends to build in strength over 24-48 hours, sometimes reaching gale force (especially in winter).

Sources for weather information:

  • There is a continuous (computerized voice) weather forecast on VHF 68 - first in Italian and then followed with an English translation
  • The same forecast is given in Italian and English on VHF coastal stations following a notification on channel 16
  • Navtex weather forecasts covering the Adriatic are broadcast from stations at Roma, Trieste, Kerkyra (Greece) and Split (Croatia)

Communication

Navigation

The walled town standing proud on an easily-defended peninsula is conspicuous from distance. The harbour is entered from SE, holding a course about 50 metres inside the outer breakwater, the Diga Foranea, to clear the shoal water extending over 100 metres E from the new marina breakwater to port. Depths in the entrance are 5.0 - 6.0 metres. Entry can be difficult in strong SE winds. If berthing in the commercial harbour, enter through the narrow entrance between the south mole and the breakwater. If berthing in the new marina, turn hard to port once through the entrance for the larger berths on the south mole. Call on VHF channel 13 to the Marinucci Yacht Club for berthing assistance once inside the breakwater.

Berthing

All berths on the south mole and in the commercial harbour are operated by the Marinucci Yachting Club. There are around 40 berths in the commercial harbor for yachts of up to 8 metres on pontoons and quays.The berths here are usually filled by local yachts, but there may be space outside busy periods. The newer marina on the south mole, Marina di San Pietro, provides a total of 250 berths for yachts of up to 30 metres in depths of 3.5 - 4.5 meters.
