Guide

Approach and anchoring

The marina fills a long, narrow inlet between hills, with berths on both sides. In 2022 a hammerhead crane marked the hidden entrance. In bad weather, seas can push boats towards the breakwaters on entry. VHF 9 went unanswered in May 2025, but a marina boat met boats and led them in. Berth stern-to on lines. The main concrete quay is high and had no fenders in May 2025. Swell does not enter, but gusts do.

Practical

A 47 ft catamaran paid 300 euros a night in June 2026, with water and power extra. In 2024 a 15 m monohull paid 132 euros plus 18 euros for services. Water and power run on a prepaid meter that can cut out at night. The office is 10 minutes on foot. Showers and toilets are free. The small supermarket opened 8 am to 2 pm in June 2026. The marina has its own diver for fouled propellers.

Ashore

The marina has a Brazilian restaurant. A sushi restaurant overlooked the quay in 2023. Porto Cervo is about 10 minutes by road, with a supermarket 100 m from the taxi drop-off. Baja Sardinia lies along the same road to the north-west.
