Cape Verde’s first marina was built in the city of Mindelo. Marina Mindelo has a modern and efficient structure, which brings more security and comfort to the sailors who call at the Bay of Porto Grande, in São Vicente.

Started in the end of October 2007, the owners of yachts now have a range of high standing services at their disposal, from mooring, water, electricity, 24-hour security and wirless lan (WiFi). There is a separate water deposit for the Marina which is essential in Cape Verde, due to the permanent shortages of water supply.

Sanitary facilities were installed in summer 2009: women´s and men´s shower (each3) and 4 toilets for each, men and women. Warm water through a solar panel installation

The Diesel bunker station is in operation since Nov 1st, 2009.

The yachtservice www.boatcv.com is also placed in the Marina house on the pier.
