Porto di San Vincenzo, Marina in San Vincenzo, Tuscany, Italy
The port of San Vincenzo is a marina near the medieval Pisan tower, with 8 floating quays fitted with fingers and a dock with trappes for larger boats, totalling 283 berths. Depths of 3 to 4.5 metres allow entry to vessels up to 27 metres long. It has a bunkering and fuel point and a new shipyard for repairs to fibreglass hulls.
The current tourist harbour was built from 2005 to a design by the Roman firm Capolei Cavalli for the architectural works and Modimar for the maritime structures. Works were due to finish in 2009 but legal disputes pushed the deadline to 31 May 2010; the harbour was inaugurated on 13 June 2010. It stands beside the medieval Pisan tower. Legambiente awarded the municipal administration its Black Flag in both 2006 and 2007 over rapid building expansion.
