Maximum length: 180ft (55m)
Number of berths over 80ft (24m): 4
Draft: 15ft (4.5m)
Portofino’s harbor is its premier attraction, so no excuse is needed to tie up in Marina di Portofino, arguably one of the most famous small harbors in the world.
But because of this and with barely four spaces for superyachts it is advisable to book your slot very early. Alternatively, there is the nearby harbor of Santa Margherita Ligure that lies only a few miles away.

Number of berths over 80ft (24m): 30
Draft: 16ft (5m)
The largest marina of the Tuscan Archipelago is amazingly subdued, even though it boasts all the standard marina facilities.
It is located in the same ancient harbor that has previously hosted Greeks, Ligurians, Romans, Pisans and probably even Napoleon himself when he came to be exiled on the island. Moor your yacht at the ancient quay and watch the slow pace of life carry on around you.
