Marina del Nettuno, Messina

Marina del Nettuno sits right in the heart of Messina, putting you steps from the city's waterfront promenade and the famous Strait of Messina with its views across to mainland Italy. The marina handles up to 160 vessels up to 40 metres, with no draft restrictions — so you're not squeezing into a tight berth regardless of what you're sailing. It's a proper full-service setup, open 24 hours, with staff reachable on VHF and by phone any time of day.
