The Nautical Club is located to the right of the breakwater pier of the harborof Marina di Carrara. The port has a Sirocco mouth and consists of four docks protected to the east by the Levante pier and to the west by the Ponente pier and breakwater. Unrestricted access requires care because of shoals and rocks outcropping along the breakwater and the head of the Levante pier.
The Nautical Club offers 190 berths for a maximum length of 27 meters. The seabed at the dock range from 3.5 to 5.5 meters while in ports they reach up to 10 m. A fuel station, water and power outlets, slipway, slipway, a 15-ton fixed crane and mobile cranes from 25 to 100 tons are available. There are a few restaurants in the immediate vicinity of the port while grocery stores can be found in town a short distance away.
Conspicuous points on approach are the skyscraper to the east of the ports, the piers and cranes in addition to the many merchant ships at anchor. The head of the breakwater has a statue of Our Lady as a landmark. If arriving at night use the main lighthouse overlooking the shore and the entrance lights as a reference. Dead bodies returned to the quay are available. The ports are well sheltered although with winds from the south a wave enters which can make mooring difficult.
Marina di Carrara located at the northern end of the Tuscan coast at the foot of the Apuan Alps, is a seaside resort with a wide fine sandy beach sandwiched between the blue sea and the green pine forests.
