Moniga Porto

Moniga Porto is a facility located along the shores of Lake Garda on the southwestern coast.

The facility was built in 2005 and offers 280 berths, for boats up to 18 meters in length. Of these berths, 24 are reserved for boats in transit.
The maximum draft allowed for a boat to enter the port area is 3.20 meters (the depth, which is higher at the entrance to the port area, reaches 320 centimeters at the dock).

Each berth has access to drinking water sources and electricity supply columns. The port offers its customers showers, toilets, wi-fi and TV connection, dockside boxes, and a laundry service.
The port also has a boatyard area, with repair workshops for sail and motor boats, with a crane that can lift weights of up to 20 tons, a self-propelled trolley that can carry boats weighing up to 20 tons, and a sail and mast repair service. The ports has a team of hull cleaning, maintenance and treatment workers (hydro-cleaning, sandblasting, anti-corrosion treatments).

It also has a fueling station.

Moniga Port also benefits from a 24-hour continuous video surveillance system, a night watchman, fire and pollution control systems, a weather service, a mooring aid service, and a salvage service via a rescue raft.
Moniga Porto also has a winter storage area, the size of 500 square meters in total (4200 square meters are indoor), where boats can be sheltered and serviced.

The ports team also offers boat buying and selling services (with a showroom located along the Desenzano del Garda-Salò highway).
Around the ports area (within a radius of about 800 meters) you can find bars, restaurants, camping grounds, hotels, banks, and supermarkets.
The ports also offers transfers to Verona, Bergamo, and Milan airports and electric bicycle rentals for sightseeing.

Outdoor and indoor parking spaces are available to patrons arriving here in their own cars.

Moniga del Garda is a municipality in the province of Brescia. Of medieval origins, it still retains one of the oldest churches in the municipalities of the Garda Riviera (the Church of San Martino) and a castle, dating back to the 10th century.
The surroundings of Moniga Porto offer patrons a good choice of beaches.
The closest one is actually called Spiaggia del Porto, with piers where you can set up and a pebble beach. The beach offers showers and toilets, as well as the possibility of renting umbrellas and sunbeds. Nearby, you can find a newsstand, a tobacconist and various businesses.

Also part of the municipality of Moniga del Garda are the beaches of San Michele and Liner.
These are two beaches with free access, composed of pebbles, fairly central and close to bars, restaurants and businesses. If you are looking for more tranquility, you can leave the port area and head to the right, where you will encounter a series of smaller beaches, still made of pebbles, but wilder and more private. The closer you get to the area of the municipality of Manerba, the more the density of patrons on the beaches decreases.

To reach the Moniga del Garda shoreline (other than by boat or car), one can rely on train or bus. The nearest train station is Desenzano sul Garda – about 10 kilometers away. From there, one can then take a bus.
From Brescia, on the other hand, a number of bus lines depart from Brescia, leading just a few hundred meters from Moniga Porto.
