Le Castella - Docking
The harbour has a southern basin reserved for fishing boats and a northern basin for leisure craft (see photo left taken by Peter Ter Haar, entrance to the right of picture). It is well maintained and run by the local government.
Cruisers visiting in 2013 report that depth is a minimum of 3 metres. The shelter is good.
The northern basin has water and electricity. There are a guard / Marinero and security cameras. This basin is very well lit both night and day.
Yachts are permitted in the southern basin, but only when the fishing boats are out and the pier is fully occupied in the evening with fishing boats.
There are a good supermarket 200 metres from the harbour and a small chandlery close by.
A useful anchoring map for the Le Castella marine park, stretching around the coast to Crotone, can be found here.

Stayed in Le Castella the night from March 18th to 19th. Arrived in strong southerlies. Floodlights light up the Harbour and they are the brightest lights all along the Shore, but when you come closer they dazzle and it is impossible to see the Harbour entrance until you are very close to the breakwater (50 mt). This is dangerous and care is needed!
