Yacht anchorage in Porto di Ponente
The Bay is well protected from all winds except the west and northwest winds. If the winds from these directions increase, it is better to go to Porto di Levante marina
Anchor can be thrown anywhere in the bay at depths of 4-8 meters. The bottom is sand and mud. Holding is good. Be wary of shoals and rocks on the northeastern shore of the bay.
On the south-eastern shore of the bay there is a magnificent sandy beach, where you can go off the yacht by dinghy.
