The marina, like the port, is one of the few official points of entry to the island. Those arriving or departing by yacht can complete Customs and Immigration formalities at offices in the marina.
There is berthing for 450 yachts but berths are available by reservation only. In the winter the marina is generally full. There are several private brokers, chandlers, refit and engineering and launch and hauling companies in the marina area.
The marina is located at 34° 55′ N – 33° 38′ E. The depth of the waters in the port ranges from 1.5 metres to 4.0 metres with a mud and sand seabed. The marina is well protected from winds and high seas. 24-hour VHF communication: Listening: Ch 16, Working Ch 8.
