N.I.C. Marina
Tucked inside the port of Catania on Sicily's east coast, this surprisingly quiet private club marina is run by the Circolo Nautico NIC and offers 160 berths with all-inclusive pricing around €60 per night. It's a secure, well-kept spot with clean facilities and a focus on recreational nautical sports. Catania itself is right on your doorstep — a gritty, volcanic city full of baroque architecture, incredible street food markets, and the looming presence of Mount Etna.
