Berthing Facilities, Nazaré, West Portugal

Atlantic Spain and Portugal 7th Edition Page 169
The berthing facilities for yachts at Nazaré are expected to be reorganized and greatly improved from the beginning of 2019. At that time the existing Porto de Recreio da Nazaré (PdeRN) marina on the southwest of the basin will be refurbished with new pontoons and become administered by the Clube Naval da Nazaré (CNN) that already has facilities at the northeast of the basin. In recent years visitors to Nazaré calling on VHF Ch 09 have been answered by the CNN staff. This will now become the normal procedure by agreement between CNN and the Docapesca. The CNN staff will direct yachts to either the increased number of pontoons at the northeast of the basin or the new pontoons at the southwest of the basin where depths are said to be of 3m throughout. At the time of writing it is not known whether the existing Porto de Recreio da Nazaré marina office, showers and WCs will continue to be used, or whether a new reception facility will be sited adjacent to the refurbished pontoons.
