Facilities & Weather Forecast

Costa Viola Yacht Club Srl was born in 2011 from the passion of five friends who have always had a passion for the sea. When the port authority prepared the activities for the new tourist port of Palmi - Taureana, the company was set up to apply for the concession of a stretch of water to be equipped for the mooring of pleasure boats and the relative space on land for the organization of services. The Costa Viola Yacht Club holds the second concession issued by the port authority and was the first company to set up the equipped dock in the port of Palmi - Taureana. Today, the Costa Viola Yacht Club offers berths and all the services related to pleasure boats and commercial boats.
