Port of Marina di Grosseto, Maritime facility in Marina di Grosseto, Italy
The Port of Marina di Grosseto is a mooring facility on the Tuscan coast that accommodates motorboats, sailboats, and fishing vessels. The facility includes boat ramps, maintenance stations, and supply services for different types of watercraft.
A fishing port-canal grew here around the mid-20th century, together with the fishermen's village on the left bank of the San Rocco canal, long nicknamed "Shanghai". After years of enlargement and modernisation, the new tourist harbour, designed by Studio Tecnico Cappelli Associati, was inaugurated in 2004 and has been called Porto della Maremma since 2014.
The fishing village that grew on the canal's left bank was long nicknamed "Shanghai", a name still remembered locally. The port itself was formerly called "marina di San Rocco" before taking the name Porto della Maremma in 2014.
The port is easily accessible to visitors with parking available and pathways leading to the waterfront where boats and the harbor are clearly visible. You can visit year-round, though summer months show the most boat activity.
The port lies at the mouth of the San Rocco canal, not the Ombrone. The fishing village that grew on the canal's left bank was long nicknamed "Shanghai". A pair of lighthouses guides boats entering, leaving and passing at night.
