Santa Maria di Leuca - General Info
Description:
This is a small, but very attractive harbour located at the extreme southern tip of Italy’s “heel”, at the entrance to the Adriatic.
It is an ideal stopover before for yachts transiting to and from Greece and Croatia, however, it should be noted this is not a port of entry to Italy. If an official port of entry is required, the closest are Crotone to the west, or Brindisi, northwards around the east coast. Fuel and some repair facilities are available here but provisioning is limited. Marina does experience some swell.
Entrance Notes and Cautions:
- Be aware of considerable commercial traffic rounding Pt. Risolta.
- There is a lot of silting to the port of the entrance, so enter with caution.
Position:
39°47.57’N,18°21.38’E (harbour entrance)
