Porto di Sperlonga

About

The first dock in Sperlonga was built to meet the needs of local fishermen and boaters. Over the years the tourist and recreational function has become prevalent, thanks to the quality of the marine waters, the beauty of the coast (which includes the Regional Park of the Ulysses Riviera) and the proximity of the Pontine islands. A breakwater pier, which extends for 200 m, and a jetty with a curvilinear extension delimit two basins separated by a central arm, with a total surface of 19,000 m2. Two hydraulic connections between the basins and the supply of fresh water, coming from the nearby springs, ensure an effective water recirculation in the two basins. Traits of the docks are reserved for professional fishermen, boats of the Coast Guard and the mooring of boats in transit. The docks and floating docks, the latter paved in wooden planks, are equipped with turrets for the distribution of electricity, drinking water and washing water, to service the parked boats.
