Full Description & Details
The 4th Marina of Glyfada (Tetarti Marina Glyfadas) is one of four municipal marinas lining the waterfront of Glyfada, a residential suburb on the south coast of Athens. It sits at Diadochou Pavlou 11, within walking distance of Glyfada's centre and its Blue Flag beaches. The marina is administered by the Municipality of Glyfada, which keeps fees low but means facilities and services are more basic than at private marinas, and paperwork is heavier. Port police are stationed at the 4th Marina, and the harbour sits in a safe residential neighbourhood.
Protection is adequate for a coastal harbour, with negligible tidal flow. The marina offers 259 berths on floating docks, with side-to and stern-to mooring, and can take yachts up to 35 metres depending on depth and the entrance. Manoeuvrability and channel marking are rated only fair, so approach with care. Holding is not the main option here; berthing is on pontoons with power and potable water available from roughly 500 pillars across the Glyfada marina complex.
Amenities include fuel (petrol and diesel), water, electricity, wifi, showers, toilets, laundry, and very small boat repairs. There is a port authority office, security services, and telephone connection capability. Provisions are easy: markets are nearby and the Glyfada centre is close, with popular seafood restaurants near the marinas. The marina is a port of entry and accepts overseas visitor berths, and it operates actively through the winter.
Approach at a moderate speed and watch for other traffic in the busy Glyfada waterfront. The marina is open year-round and is one of the least expensive options on the Athens south coast, though you should expect more administrative formalities than at private facilities. Contact the administration office at +30 213 2025367 or [email protected] for berthing and facility details.
How to get there
Approach Glyfada's 4th Marina from the Saronic Gulf, heading toward the Glyfada waterfront on the south coast of Athens. Channel marking is rated fair and manoeuvrability is fair, so keep a sharp lookout for small craft and mooring traffic near the entrance. There is no published VHF channel; contact the administration office by phone at +30 213 2025367 before arriving to arrange a berth.
On land, the marina is at Diadochou Pavlou 11, Glyfada 166 75, within easy reach of Glyfada's centre and its beaches. Athens is a short drive north, and the marina is a port of entry with customs clearance available. Expect to complete more paperwork than at a private marina, as the Municipality of Glyfada administers the facility.
