Reported by Johan of SY ELENI:
On the 14th of September, we entered the Marina Nautico Polaris. This is a very quiet marina with very helpful staff. The downside is that it is very expensive, we paid 90 euros a day for a 52 ft boat.
Reported by Con Sprenger – SY Big Sky
We booked for one week, 2nd week of Sept. 2017 at Polaris Cantiere Nautico at a rate of 55 euro a day for a 14-meter boat, includes VAT, power, water and wifi. E-Mail communication was good, use google translate to make communication easier. We did try to make contact with Mr. Vito mentioned in other comments, without success. Upon arrival we spoke with the attendant on Pontoon “A”, he quoted 60 euro per night for our boat. We found Polaris Cantiere Nautico professional, good facilities and excellent wifi, both upload and download speeds. We chose Marsala over Trapani where rates were in the 90 euro range for our boat.
It turned out a good location for exploring the western part of Sciliy, car rental form the nearby airport was inexpensive, getting there easy on the local train. Car rental company will pick up at the train station. Great supermarkets within walking distance of the marina, a Lidl requires a bike or car. The old town of Marsala is pleasant to enjoy a glass of Marsala.
Hello, I have my boat in Marsala for two years. Polaris Cantiere Nautico is very expensive but you have other two alternatives on the floating docks ( A, B, C ). They are managed from different people (A and B) cost a lot less. In particular, the floating docks A & B are managed by Mr Vito and the counterpart is that services are terrible. The good part is that the Vito is very flexible on any requests you have. In the end, he gives you total freedom on how you want to handle your moorings. It is true nobody speaks English here but eventually, you find someone to help you out with communication. We pay for all year berthing for my 39-foot boat 1600 euros comprehensive of electricity and water.
Marsala has most of the service needed but the professional level is low and compensated by the will to satisfy you, just need to be kind with them. If you ever need to advise for the south Sicily area you can contact me any time. I’ll be happy to help you since I understand the difficulties that foreigners have when they pass by Italian shores and ports. Cheers to all.
The Wifi in Polaris Cantiere Nautico is NOT mediocre, it is awful slow, Mail yes, but browsing does not work, to open a site lasts 5+ min.
Polaris Cantiere Nautico is extreme expensive, they charged for 42″ in Oct 2015 60€
