Access to the municipal pier is easy and convenient. There is plenty of space and you can release as much chain as you need without fear of lifting the neighbor’s anchor. There are several pedestals of electricity and to each one is connected a water pipe. The Harbor Master occasionally goes over the moped to check if new anchors have arrived and charge them for docking. The city itself has plenty of restaurants, souvenir shops, sponges, supermarkets and much more. The mooring is protected from the northwest and is convenient for mooring during the malting season.

Marina with a Dry Dock for long storage. Undoubtedly the cheapest prices in Florida. Regarding the service, there are a number of complaints about break-ins, improper handling of chemicals (such as anti-fouling) and more.

Fredrikstad Norway

Limor Gruber — Mon, 09 Aug 2021 08:43:58 +0000

The new guest harbor is a short walk from the city center. The port is close to shops, a supermarket and more. At the entrance to the port and the canal out of the city there is a small mooring, exposed to the winds which is next to a caravan park. The services are shared by both.
The entrance requires crossing a bridge that is opened several times a day. You can check online when the bridge opens. Beyond that, crossing the river requires crossing a series of bridges. We were not really sure if they would arrive to open them on time. There is no complete clarity on the subject. At the end the bridges opened and we passed.
During the passage, one should carefully check the depths and on which bank of the river to sail. During the cruise you pass small barges designed for public sea transport. Attention should be paid to the depths in the passage of the bolts and if necessary then wait and turn.
The cost of mooring a 42-foot boat is 37-42 euros per night at the end of the season.

Muleta Soller, Mallorca, Spain

Limor Gruber — Mon, 09 Aug 2021 10:06:21 +0000

There are not many stops in the north of the island, one of which is a great bay in the north of Mallorca, protected from most conditions and good catch. Most of the season there is a high density so it is advisable to arrive relatively early. The entrance is impressive and convenient, be careful not to anchor near the ferry pier.

Limor Gruber — Mon, 09 Aug 2021 08:13:04 +0000

Pali is the modern marina of the volcanic island of Nisiros. (There is also a fishing marina in the village of Mandraki west of Pali’s marina). The marina has water and electricity, the mooring is Mediterranean with an anchor and stern to the pier. Excellent grip inside the marina.
The marina has a number of restaurants, a small grocery store and you can rent a car.
The active volcano on the island is an attraction not to be missed. It is highly recommended to rent a car, get to the volcano and hike the gorge. The mountain is active and you can see golden crystals of sulfur with the smell that accompanies them of course.
The road to the mountain between magical villages with springs that can be reached.
Finally, it is recommended to visit Mandraki, the city west of Pali. It is a picturesque and magical city. With a fishing dock (low sinking, boats with a long keel can not anchor in it).

Lividia, Tilos, Greece

Limor Gruber — Mon, 09 Aug 2021 09:07:53 +0000

נA small and picturesque Mel with a place with no more than 10 boats. The mooring is Mediterranean, with an anchor and tying to the platform at the stern. In addition there are a number of mooring ropes. However, the mooring ropes are very short and a boat over 12 m will reach the middle of the boat. Good anchor grip at the bottom. Restaurants and shops on the beach. A picturesque and beautiful village.
We were caught in a northeasterly storm at the mooring at the long-side mooring on the concrete platform. We were not protected and the stay was difficult.
We recently realized that a new management company has come in and the collection is exorbitant.
There is a daily charge of 7 euros until midnight so if you stay until the morning you pay for two days (14 euros). In addition, Pix Price on electricity (8 euros) and water (5 euros).
