Marina d´Arechi Port Village - a Superyacht Marina in the heart of the Mediterranean
The Port
With its 1000 berths from 10 to 60 metres, the port is one of the largest superyacht marinas in the Mediterranean.
To ensure the integrity of the coastal engineering to be carried out and to meet the highest standards of safety and security demanded, the design has been underpinned by extensive meteorological and marine studies, including state-of-the-art physical and mathematical modelling simulations under the direction of the prestigious Institute for Research HR Wallingford in the UK.
Each berth will be equipped with the latest and most efficient energy supply systems, as well as water supply and health and sanitation.

Sea works
Separated from the land, the port infrastructure is being developed. The quay is for the port users, with all the fundamental marina services.
On the land side, a public passageway has been designed to be open to everybody, shaded by lines of trees, and which offers unequalled viewing points of the city and the boat club. Along this passageway, commercial and entertainment activities will be available.
The berthing for a thousand yachts will be along 21 docks of varying length, articulated around two main docks, spreading out from the bank quay. The refueling stations with fourteen pumps will be placed at the entrance to the port.
Fully operational Marina d´Arechi Port Village will offer:
– 1.000 berths from 10 up to 60 metres long
– 27.000 sq. metres of landscaped gardens and pathways
– 8.700 sq. metres of commercial, retail and leisure space
– 1.000 parking spaces at the Marina
