Very tight and shallow marina so do VHF with draft and length BEFORE venturing in. Staff are helpful, facilities are clean, €44 for a 12m yacht. Easy to anchor off and dingy in.
You need nerves of steel to navigate to the port with a boat of more than 2m draft, but it is worth it. Nice facility, helpful staff and an excellent town to visit.
