Reported by SY Funny Girl: September 2016
We found no space available in the yacht harbour, it was full of lots of local boats and abandoned mooring lines, so we moored at the town quay. There was a long water hose and a tap, so we could take water when needed free of charge.
Port police were walking around, but did not contact us only smiled at us. Nice city with a chandlery which sells camping gaz.
We were in Pylos July 2016. We arranged diesel on the dock from a very helpful man who also dropped us to where the Camping Gaz exchange was to be found. Business Name Pylos Arvanitis. Phone number 30 2723022287 or mobile 30 6932381 502
Reported by Tony Olin:
The main port in Pylos is too shallow for docking on the town quay. The marina is lying in an abandoned state but there is good shelter in here and good depth. No facilities other than one water tap near the dinghy club.
There are two abandoned fuel barges lying on the western breakwater to tie up to, if space is tight. The fuel man calls every day. This could be a fine marina with a little investment and management. Great town to visit, five minutes walk, good shopping etc.
We spent a few days in July 2015 in Pylos Marina. No fees were collected, though you are requested to inform the port police non VHF 12 of your arrival. They were only interested in flag and last port of call.
There _is_ water and electricity, but only at an isolated spot on the east side of the harbour, where a few charter yachts are currently based. You can moor there to take water for free. It costs a minimum (2m³) of about 5-6 € at the town pier.
There is currently a self appointed “security guard” roaming the marina asking for money to watch your boat (“… too many Albanians and Bulgarians here…”).
