Cariati is a small harbour constructed for pleasure craft and fishing vessels near the town of Cariati on the western side of the Golfo di Taranto in [[Italy]], 32 miles N of [[Crotone]] and 12 miles N of Punta Alice.  Like its close neighbour to the S, [[Ciro Marina]], it is a useful overnight stop for smaller yachts (up to 15 metres) sailing into or out of the gulf rather than sailing straight across it.

Cariati is a small harbour constructed for pleasure craft and fishing vessels near the town of Cariati on the western side of the Golfo di Taranto in Italy, 32 miles N of Crotone and 12 miles N of Punta Alice. Like its close neighbour to the S, Ciro Marina, it is a useful overnight stop for smaller yachts (up to 15 metres) sailing into or out of the gulf rather than sailing straight across it.

Local Weather

During the summer the prevailing winds in the Ionian are light to moderate SW or SE seabreezes. In spring and autumn northerly winds are more frequent and can quickly rise to near gale force, especially in the lee of high mountain ranges. Winds in summer are generally light from the Straits of Messina until reaching the Golfo di Squillace between Rocella Ionica and Le Castella. With anything W in the wind, it tends to funnel down here over the mountains of southern Calabria, bringing strong gusts and raising an uncomfortable sea. The conditions to avoid, however, when cruising this part of the Ionian coast are strong southerlies. The harbours here are few and far between and none of them are really safe to enter in such conditions. Further east in the Gulf of Taranto local seabreezes predominate during the summer, although a light to moderate northerly is not uncommon.

Sources for weather information:

  • There is a continuous (computerised 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 are broadcast from stations at Roma, Cagliari (Sardinia) and Augusta (Sicily)
