Neptune Marina

Marina del Nettuno sits right in the heart of Messina, giving you front-row views of the Strait of Messina and the Calabrian coastline across the water. The marina runs 140 berths on finger pontoons, handling vessels up to 40 metres, with 14 slots reserved for those passing through. It's a proper working harbour with a lively edge — the Yachting Club Messina's jetty bar is steps away, and the city's cathedral, street food scene, and ferry connections to Sicily's islands are all within easy reach.
