Kos Marina Greece – What The Pilot Book Doesn’t Tell You

Finding good marinas is often a difficult feat. Not, however, if you’re going to pay Kos Marina Greece a visit. I was very impressed. Let me tell you about my thoughts.

Kos Marina Life RingKos Marina Greece – A review

We stayed in marinas from Gibraltar on the west of the Mediterranean to Kos, Greece on the east. Thus far, Syracuse, Sicily was the very worst marina – having the highest fees and the most disgusting facilities. How hard is it to supply soap to wash your hands and a toilet seat to sit on?

And if you asked me my favorite marina before visiting Kos, it would be a toss-up between Marina di Ragusa Sicily and Gouvia Marina near Corfu Town in the Greek Ionian.

Kos Marina Flat

That being said, my new favorite marina is now Kos Marina in Kos Town, Greece.

We originally went to Kos to pick friends up from the airport and ended up frequenting the marina for two further stints. Over each of those 3 – 4-day stints, we had repairs completed, learned important maintenance techniques, enjoyed great food from the marina café, provisioned the boat with groceries from the Marina supermarket, and had the most powerful showers to date. Furthermore, we were able to enjoy the beaches, ruins, restaurants, and shops located right outside of the marina walls.

The one and only thing that wasn’t that great was the smell of the facilities.

The smell was a cross between sewage and mold. It wasn’t nice but it was tolerable. Let me move on with more details for you…

Kos Marina Greece Review – In Detail

Customer Service

Once outside the coastline of Kos Town, we called channel 77 to speak with a Kos Marina attendant. When approaching the marina there’s a huge banner requesting that berth requests are made over the VHF.

We started to panic as a regatta was in for the weekend and wondered if they’d find space for us. After a bit of discussion, the attendants offered us a place along the wall – it was all that was left.

The cost to tie on along the side was 94 euros for us – we’re a 56’ sailboat. When mooring side-on, the boat takes up much more space than it would if it goes stern-to. We were told that the following day when spaces became available we could go stern-to with a cost of 52 euros.

I later learned that it was possible to book a space at Kos Marina so if you want to make sure you have a place, please call as the marina certainly fills up over the weekends.

While entering the marina, an attendant on a boat takes you to your berth spot and another attendant is on the jetty helping to take your lines and give you a lazy line, if available. The attendants are all brilliant – they direct you and if you need help turning, they’ll use their boat to move you around.

After being in Kos Marina over a few weekends I noticed that many charter boats come and go so the attendants must be accustom to very novice sailors.

I was extremely pleased with the kindness offered.

All the attendants bombed around the marina working very hard but they always had time to wave or smile at me when I put my laundry out on the bow or passed them on a jetty.

Kos Marina Office

My husband did our paperwork in the office (pictured above) each time and he said the staff was all pleasant and helpful. He explained, “I wouldn’t say that Kos Marina was top-notch for customer service but it was very good.”

Scenery

Upon the approach to Kos Marina Greece, you can see a boardwalk strip with beaches along the coast to the right and restaurants and beaches to the left. There’s also a beautiful castle ruin that stands in front of the town marina. Unlike other Greek islands, the feel isn’t particularly Greek. A few mosque towers can be seen from the sea.

The marina itself is very well kept. The grass is green, the little square with shops looks lovely and all the pontoons are kept very well maintained.

The comfort of Mooring in Koz Marina Greece

The marina wall truly protected the boats. The only time we moved is when the marina attendants went speeding by on their tender to help other boats – and that was only during the day.

Noise Levels

Over the weekend it was noisier than during the week. Live music plays throughout the town on various nights. And it seems as if every night around 9 or 10 pm there’s a very short firework display from a nearby restaurant.

Overall, we had no problem with the noise – by 11 pm it was quiet. You can’t hear the traffic nor the passers-by. In the morning I was woken once by a ferry beeping their horn but that’s quite acceptable.

Kos Marina Greece

General Atmosphere on the Pontoon 

We stayed on ‘B’ and ‘C’ pontoon over the course of three visits and every time we felt very comfortable. The workers all smiled and said ‘hi’ or ‘yassas’. Other boaters were eager to chat and swap stories. We met people from Israel, America, Italy, Canada, South Africa, and Britain – a real mix of backgrounds.

Kos Marina Greece

Facilities on the Jetty

There are water, electricity, and wifi on the pontoons. Everything worked for us. It’s a key card system so you preload money on the keycard and use it up over time. We did have one incident where the card was faulty and didn’t work – the office staff sorted it out quickly and that was that.

The wifi didn’t work very well at all. I tried on several occasions but the load times took forever. I opted to enjoy a beverage at the marina café instead where the wifi was excellent.

Facilities on Land

The marina has it all…Great showers, great bathrooms, grocery store, café, restaurant, two small chandleries, and more.

Distance to Facilities

If you’re on the wall it’s quite a hike to get to the marina offices and then into the town. Otherwise, it’s quite a compact marina only taking a few minutes to get to the facilities.

Kos Marina Greece Showers

Showers

By far, the Kos Marina shower stalls are the most private and roomiest! When entering the showers, a separate area, you’ll find 6 doors all containing a shower, sink, counter, changing area, and ample places to hang your towel, wash bag and clothes. Further, there’s a hairdryer in most of the rooms and an electrical outlet for your own devices.

Unfortunately, however, it does not smell nice. I discovered that the shower furthest to the right, in the women’s showers, smelled the worst. My suggestion is to use the showers to the left.

Kos Marina Greece Showers

Also, none of the showerheads are attached to the wall. They’re all dangling so you need to hold the head as you wash.

The showers seem a bit outdated but overall the facilities are very clean. Every time I went to use the showers or toilets there was an attendant cleaning them.

Kos Marina Toilets

Toilets

They all worked fine however be careful if you let a child into the showers or toilets. The door locks are a bit fiddly. I managed to get myself stuck in one of the showers for a couple of minutes, as I couldn’t get the door unlocked.

Never did I find a toilet without toilet paper or a soap dispenser without soap. Whoever maintains the facilities is doing a great job.

Other

Within the marina, there’s the ‘Marina Café’, which I frequented every day for wifi. The drinks are cold, the salads are excellent and the special Marina Café crepe is fantastic – it’s a savory crepe with cheese, bacon, chicken, and cream in it!

Kos-Marina-Cafe

When ordering a drink, you also get sliced apples, bananas, and potato chips which was always a nice treat. The staff at the café were all super kind and very helpful. My daughter loved all of them and felt very comfortable asking for something or paying the bill.

Aside from the café, there was a restaurant that I did not try out.

With so many restaurants outside the marina, we ventured out most nights. We did, however, buy many of our groceries from the marina supermarket. And I’m very pleased to announce that the prices from the store were normal – not hiked up because it’s a marina shop.

I went to the marina supermarket and purchased everything I could. Anything that I couldn’t get I walked to AB Supermarket, a few blocks back from the main road.

Kos Marina Book Exchange

Also – inside the marina offices you’ll find a room filled with books, a computer, and areas to sit. It’s nice and air-conditioned so a perfect spot to read emails or just take a break from the heat. You can leave finished books on the bookshelves and take whatever books you want – it’s a book exchange.

We dropped off a few pilot books that we won’t be using and I picked up a book by Victoria Hislop entitled, ‘The Thread.’ And my daughter found a ‘Tom and Jerry’ DVD that kept her quiet for some time!

Repairs, maintenance, and servicing

One thing, or shall I say, person, that made our stay in Kos even better was a guy named Pierre. Upon a recommendation from a friend in England, we were told to contact him. Pierre was able to help us fix our boiler, but little did we know that he was going to help us with much more.

During our visits to Kos marina, Pierre helped us change our broken boiler, VHF aerial, aft shower tap, outdoor speakers, davits, electric toilet pump, and busted door.

Kos Marina Repairs

In addition, he put us in touch with someone that fixed our DVD player, another person that helped us upgrade our GPS maps and another that taught me how to fix the teak deck (replace the black stuff between the teak wood). And Pierre took the time himself to bring me the necessary products to clean the rust off the metalwork and showed me how to do it.

If you’re going to Kos Marina and you need any help, I definitely recommend Pierre.

When you moor up just ask for him and someone will give you his number or instruct you on where to find him. His prices were very reasonable and he made sure that everything was done properly. Further, he will tell you exactly what he thinks which can be a breath of fresh air when dealing with boat repairs/maintenance.

Some thoughts on Kos Town

I don’t think I’d recommend my friends and family to take a long vacation in Kos Town itself. It’s quite a party place – its very busy with teenagers and party go-ers. I did see loads of families but I’m not sure it’s the best place for a nice relaxing family get-away. The beaches near the marina were okay – some were dirty, you had to pay 5 euros for a chair and they were rocky and full of seaweed.

I believe that beaches further up the coast are better.

The restaurants were all very good. There’s an excellent bakery near the castle with great ice cream too! And speaking of the castle, there are ruins all over the town of Kos. Everywhere you walk, you come across something old! Below is a video I took as my daughter and I were walking back to the boat. It shows an ancient agora, or meeting place.

No matter who you are, if you’re passing near Kos by boat I highly suggest a couple of nights in the great town. You can anchor right outside the marina for free, depending on weather conditions, or tie up in the wonderful Kos Marina.

To see some images of Kos – especially Kos Castle, read my article ‘Sailing Vacation – What’s it like to sail around for a week or two?‘ Scroll down to the bottom to check out my gallery of images.

Have you stayed at Kos Marina before? If yes, is there anything I missed?

    Thanks for the information. My sailing trip to Greece starts and ends in Kos Marina. I have contracted for two boats from Kiriacoulis. Your description of your olfactory perceptions aside, it sounds like my clients will like the marina and the town.

    Nice, honest description. Pity you didn’t use the little restaurant at the end of the marina because it’s really good. It’s called ‘Lemon & Origano’ and in my experience the food is as good or better than anything you’ll get if you leave the Marina and trek into the rather over-rated town centre. It’s a family run place and well worth a meal. I ate there several nights running. Service was good too.
    As for Kos town, totally over-rated. A party place as you rightly said. The fruit/veg market is worth visiting but that’s about it.

    Great article!! Our boat is waiting for us in Kos…LOVED the breakfast at Kos Jr Suites right there near the marina. You can go in and get it whether you are a guest or not (we stayed when surveying the boat—great place) Restaurants OFF the beaten path were wonderful. I have to look back to find the one we loved. It was about 3 blocks in on a gorgeous tree lined street. NOT a tourist spot. Would love to talk directly as we need to get a lot of work done now in Kos and would love to know the others you worked with!

      Just ask for Pierre at the marina. They’ll know where to find him. He’s awesome. And I agree – the back street places are great. I loved the 1 euro kebob’s too 😉

      Hello. Thank you for the article, that is very helpfull.
      Can I ask you if it is safe enough to leave the boat during the winter time? Anybody who has this experience can they share their opinion?
      Thanks

        Mahir – see if you can find some boat owners that have their boat there now. Perhaps the marina will give you the contact details of some people? Or, if you can get to Kos, walk the docks and talk to everyone you pass. Usually there are people around that will keep an eye on your boat while you’re gone for a small fee. Smiles, Kim

      We haven’t sailed in the Med since 2015 so I don’t know what’s going on in Kos. Perhaps you can contact the marina? Smiles, Kim

One theory proposes that "bottoms up" may have eme One theory proposes that "bottoms up" may have emerged from nautical or seafaring origins. In sailing, the term "bottom" refers to the lowest part of a ship or boat, usually submerged in the water. 

"Bottoms up" could have been a way for sailors to indicate that they had reached a safe depth where the bottom of the ship was not in danger of hitting the seabed. This usage could have been adopted into everyday language and transformed into a drinking toast.

The phrase has become a common part of drinking culture and is widely used today to signify finishing a drink in a single gulp.

Petite St Vincent is part of St Vincent & the Gren Petite St Vincent is part of St Vincent & the Grenadines; HOWEVER, if you're in Grenada, you're allowed to visit the island without booking out of Grenada. During hurricane season, it's a great place to visit. 

The anchorage has spectacular blue water, and the beach is white-littered with beautiful palm trees. It's a definite cruiser must-see destination. 

The island is private, so you can't walk on land, but you can enjoy the beach and visit the bar (when open). Warning - the prices are high! You can, however, see an incredible sunset looking out past your anchored boat. It is well worth the crazy cost of a G&T! 

To visit the bar, take your dinghy over to the dingy dock, and the bar is on the left.

The knot commonly used to tie a fender onto the si The knot commonly used to tie a fender onto the side of a boat to protect it from other boats and docks is called a "round turn and two half hitches." It is a simple and effective knot that provides a secure attachment for the fender. 

👉Follow us for more tips about being a confident sailing cruiser!

Here's how you tie a fender knot:

1. Start by passing the line's working end (rope) around a secure point on the boat, such as a cleat or railing.

2. Take the line's working end and make a loop around the standing part (the part of the line connected to the fender).

3. Pass the line's working end through the loop you just created.

4. Bring the line's working end around and make another loop around the standing part, similar to the first loop.

5. Pass the working end of the line through the second loop.

6. Tighten the knot by simultaneously pulling on the working end and the standing part.

This knot will create a secure attachment for the fender, allowing it to protect the boat's side from impacts with other boats or docks. 

You can adjust the fender's height and position for optimal protection according to your specific docking situation.

Here's one of my favorite things about living on a Here's one of my favorite things about living on a boat (It's Kim here). I adore having my 5 pm glass of wine and watching the world go by in our cockpit. 

I see turtles popping up for air, new boaters arriving at the bay, birds feeding, and kids still swimming and laughing in the water. 

On land, I don't stop and appreciate my surroundings like I do on the water. There are trees, birds, and people on land, but it's not the same. 

Looking at the sea causes bliss! It's as simple as that.

Happy Friday!

True freedom is not simply a claim or a right but True freedom is not simply a claim or a right but something that must be actively practiced and embraced through our experiences on the open sea, self-reliance, and commitment to environmental stewardship.

How often do you practice true freedom?

#sailingexperience #quotes #boatlife
The saying "Plans are written in sand at low tide" The saying "Plans are written in sand at low tide" is a metaphorical expression that conveys the idea that plans and intentions are often transient and subject to change. It suggests that plans, like words written in sand, can easily be washed away or altered by unforeseen circumstances or changing conditions.

Just as the tides can rise and erase what is written in the sand, life can bring unexpected events, obstacles, or opportunities that can disrupt or redirect our plans. It highlights the notion that despite our best intentions and meticulous planning, external factors can arise that require us to adapt or abandon our initial course of action.

This saying serves as a reminder to remain flexible, open-minded, and resilient in the face of uncertainty. It emphasizes the importance of being prepared to adjust our plans and embrace change when necessary, recognizing that life is dynamic and unpredictable.

Nothing teaches you more about flexibility, open-mindedness, and resilience than being a sailor!
