Ports of Puglia on the Gargano Peninsula
In one of the most charming bays along the Gargano coast, facing the Tremiti Islands, about 30 miles from the Lagosta Islands and 60 from Curzola, lies the Marina di Rodi Garganico marina, a safe harbor within the Gargano National Park of the same name.
Of all the ports in Puglia—and even among those in Italy—this port is the closest to the Dalmatian coast of Croatia.
The port’s facilities include
- Western breakwater arm: This is the main breakwater. It extends 300 meters from the coast, following a curved path for 700 meters.
This creates an inner basin of 60,000m², well protected from northwesterly winds (and the prevailing Mistral and Tramontana storms), where Sailing Boats and Motor Boats (between 8 and 45 meters) can moor safely even when weather conditions are poor. - Breakwater arm: This is the secondary pier, which extends eastward in the eastern area. It extends the existing straight pier by 150 meters out to sea.
Mooring Services and Yacht Service
The Marina di Rodi Garganico is one of the best-equipped marinas in Puglia.
The marina features floating docks and jetties equipped with water and electricity.
Recreational boats are moored bow-to on fixed and floating piers using the traditional chain mooring system.
Inside the marina is the Yacht Service, a fully equipped facility capable of providing comprehensive nautical assistance to both passing pleasure craft and those with permanent berths. Among the various services:
- Boat careening operations
- Service and repair of marine engines and on-board electrical systems
- Indoor storage for small boats and yard storage available.
Portus Garnae
Until the last century, the ruins of the ancient Roman port could be seen in the area adjacent to the current Apulian port. Although the new port was inaugurated in 2009, the request to build the tourist port infrastructure was formally submitted in 1908.
