Full Description & Details
Argostoli Marina sits on the western coast of Kefalonia, in the capital city of Argostoli, at the head of the Gulf of Argostoli. The marina offers 250 berths with depths ranging from 3.5 to 4.0 meters, accommodating vessels up to 30 meters in length. It provides excellent shelter in all conditions, making it a reliable bolthole during unexpected rough weather.
The berths come equipped with mooring ropes, water, and electricity, and Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the marina. Fuel can be delivered by road tanker from the nearest garage, and garbage bins are available near the north quay. The waterfront is lined with tavernas and cafes, and supermarkets, marine supply stores, and vehicle rental outlets are nearby.
While no specific repair facilities are on-site, basic chandlery and repair supplies can be found at nearby marine stores and hardware shops. Mobile connectivity is good with a 3G signal throughout the marina.
How to get there
Navigating to Argostoli Marina requires careful attention due to reefs and shoal patches at the entrance to the Gulf of Argostoli. Sailors should use a good chart and stay at least 200 meters off the headland when rounding it, as extensive shoals are found on both the northwest and northeast sides. The Doric-style lighthouse on the peninsula's headland serves as a key landmark.
The marina entrance lies directly opposite the customs quay on the east side of the bay. The nearest airport is Kefalonia International Airport (EFL), about 8 kilometers from Argostoli, with regular flights connecting to Athens and other major Greek cities. Kefalonia is well-connected by road, and Argostoli can be reached from other parts of the island.
