Doğuş Group – one of the largest private-sector conglomerates in Turkey, with a portfolio around 180 companies -, entered the marina industry in 2003 with DMarin Turgutreis (Bodrum) and continued afterwards with the construction of the Didim and Göcek facilities, after which came, respectively, the acquisition of the Croatian and Greek marinas.

Flisvos - a superyacht marina in the popular Eastern Mediterranean yacht charter location - Greece

Flisvos, located a mere 6km from the centre of Athens, is Greece’s first exclusive marina to offer a large-scale mooring capacity for megayacht owners. It features 303 berths, 50% of which accomodate yachts with a length in excess of 35 metres. Its acquisition dates back to December 2012 and was followed, early this year, by that of the remaining Hellenic marinas.

Also located near Athens, Zea Marina represents another starting point to the Aegean islands, the Saronic Gulf and Crete, and is the natural home of large-sized yachts. The two remaining facilities are both ideal ports of departure for cruises in the Ionian and the Adriatic seas: Lefkas is situated right in the heart of the enchanting Ionian archipelago, while Gouvia, on the island of Corfu, is the largest marina in Greece in terms of berth capacity (with a total of 1,235 moorings plus 520 dry berths).
