Description
The Marina di Portorosa is the largest Sicily's tourist port and one among the most exclusive marinas in the Mediterranean. It was built in 1992 by Salvatore Foti, an enterprising businessman with a great passion for the sea and yachting in general.
The port is situated in northern Sicily, in the Gulf of Patti, between Capo Tindari and Capo Milazzo, opposite Aeolian Islands. It consists of an outer port protected by an outer dock, an inner breakwater and some inner dry docks.
The marina offers 700 berths and a 400-metre quay, from which it is possible to reach Aeolian Islands and admire the beauty of the landscape.
The marina has been recognized as "Blue Flag" since 1993.
