Scheduled to open on 27 May, the marina at the Miraggio Thermal Spa Resort in Halkidiki, Greece is ideal for those wanting luxury as they cruise.

Located on the south east coast of Kassandra, Halkidiki in Greece, Marina Miraggio is being billed as one of the most advanced marinas of its kind.

Its design was influenced by the results of a study into wind and currents by academics at Aristotle University.

The architects not only wanted to reduce the environmental impact of the development, but also to help out yacht skippers too.

The marina is designed to allow maximum water circulation to keep the development of bacteria to a minimum. In theory, this should reduce the need to clean the yacht’s hull.

The marina boasts two “bridge type” jetties. At 110 metres long, the jetty connecting the berthing area to the shore is the longest of its kind in Greece.

These two jetties are designed so the water in the marina is self circulating and self cleaning. It also aims to minimise swell and the swing of the yachts moored.

Miraggio Thermal Spa Resort’s marina can house 81 boats, up to 40 metres long.

All vessels will be offered an “individual and high quality mooring”, including launching ramp, 24-hour manning, berthing and security, state-of-the-art electricity and water service pedestals, a pump out station, Wi-Fi and a petrol and diesel gas station.

There is also a seafood restaurant, The Marine Tavern, which allow diners beach views across the bay.

For those wanting some luxury, the Miraggio Thermal Spa Resort has 300 elegant, spacious rooms. The majority of them face the Toroneos Gulf, and have stunning sea views.
