A fantastic option for sailors!

It’s located just three kilometres from the town centre and offers visitors a calm environment.

The crystal-clear waters, with a minimum depth of 3 metres, make it easy to manoeuvre the boats (allowance between 6 and 30 metres). The berthing capacity on floating docks is 139 places.

The Porto Santo Marina also includes a shipyard, with an area of 10,000 m² and the capacity to receive 80 monohull boats (in metal berths), not exceeding five metres in length, 25 tonnes and 4.40 metres in breadth.

The marina is equipped to provide water and electricity services, toilets and changing rooms, as well as technical boat repair services.

The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, and prices are very reasonable. You also have the magnificent sandy beach in the immediate vicinity of the port, and after a short one-kilometer walk, you’re in the town for just about anything you could need.
