Tawara Adriatic Marine
Edited by: Muhammad Saad Qureshi
We are a large company operating a chain of 9 marinas in the Adriatic region. All of our marinas are
newly built or recently refurbished. They are well-equipped with modern facilities and offer a full
range of services. Our marinas are open all year round and have a total of 980 wet berths and 150
dry berths.
Several of our marinas have been awarded the prestigious Blue Flag. This is an environmental award
given annually to marinas that have the highest quality safety and services, environmental education
and management. The award confirms that our marinas are amongst the finest in the world.

The Adriatic summer season runs from May to the end of September. It is best to avoid the peak
season period during July and August as the waters become very busy and overcrowded. Marinas
can be hard to access and it can be impossible to find a berth. The best time to visit is during the
quieter months of May and June when the weather is warm and sunny, the seas are calm and the
water temperatures are high enough to swim. Marinas will have plenty of room even in the evening
so there will be no rush to get a berth.
Whenever you plan to visit, booking in advance will give you peace of mind. Berths can be reserved
by paying in advance via our TAM Mobile App or through the Online Booking service on our website.
This offers assistance in English, French, Italian and Spanish. We look forward to welcoming you to
one of our marinas.
