The marina was built as part of an extensive urban redevelopment project intended to move industrial port activities away from Loano's historic town center.
The breakwater includes a specialized concrete composition designed to break wave energy efficiently while maintaining water circulation within the basin.
It is one of the few ports in the Liguria region capable of hosting superyachts up to 77 meters in length.
The facility includes an integrated waste management system to ensure zero-pollution discharge into the Mediterranean basin.
The marina complex contains over 1,500 square meters of dedicated commercial space for maritime-related services and high-end retail.
The site was engineered with advanced seismic-resistant technology to protect the infrastructure against Ligurian tectonic activity.
Marina di Loano is a large, modern tourist port situated on the Italian Riviera, designed to accommodate over 800 yachts ranging from 6 to 77 meters in length. The facility features a breakwater constructed to withstand extreme sea conditions, allowing for year-round vessel access. It functions as a multipurpose hub, integrating a commercial promenade with luxury yacht services, restaurants, and professional marine maintenance facilities. The marina has received the Blue Flag certification for its environmental management and water quality. It is structurally separated from the older public beach areas, providing a more refined, upscale maritime environment. Its design prioritizes accessibility and integrated services for both boat owners and walk-in visitors.
