That will depend entirely on your vessel's size (typically length x width ) which you have not mentioned.

Welcome to the forum.
It is impossible to answer a question such as this as there is such a huge range from the cheap and cheerful traditional boatyard to full service marinas, just like in the UK. Prices for marinas are generally much lower than in the western Med or UK and yard type operations also cheaper. Location as ever has a big impact on price as the more remote the lower the price. The Ionian is popular for layup as a good combination of price and access.

Yes, welcome to the forum. As the two posters above have written, if you give your boat's size and the sort of facilities you seek, you'll surely receive the info you need.

Welcome from me too. Your best bet is to Google the marinas you're interested in and then visit the marina's website for a price list
You will find a very large variability in pricing depending on where you go.

Wow. That's more expensive than winter deals on the south coast of the UK. Particularly surprised by the turkish prices (admittedly the last time I was there "Kas Marina" was a strip of concrete quay that no-one charged me for
. Forgive my ignorance but are med prices more expensive in winter than summer?macd

The Med's a very big place so practices vary. But everywhere I've heard of, winter is substantially cheaper. The effect is, of course, made greater by the fact that many summer stays are short-term, most winter ones long-term with associated discounts.
Some of miyagimoon's quotes might include leccy/water, some not: practice varies.

but...but...good oct-mar deals in the solent can be had for £120/m (12+m boat). It's about £100/m in Brighton (4x that in summer). plus 'leccy, water included. I'm just surprised that Turkish prices are 20-80% higher than London-by-sea or indeed the Solent.

Yes, but you only get Cameron. We have Erdogan :ambivalence:

The only one that includes water & electric is Finike in Turkey. All include VAT etc. In some instances Full year contracts work out cheaper for example Finike 3512 per year compared to 1999 for 6 month also Leros at 2980 compared to 2060. Some include a free period ashore but none include lift out, jet wash and props.
As can be seen in general there is not alot between them all. But they know that during the winter period one hell of alot of yachts want to park up. Therefore, their prices reflect that.

Ashore in Preveza including lift in and out and wash, €1750 October to April (7 months).
Afloat in Messilonghi €1500, Crete €1400, Licata Sciliy €1400.
All for 12m boat including VAT, most not including water or electric. Prices may have gone up a bit but not much.

Six months in Agios Nikolaos, Crete for that boat would be €1461 (inc VAT).

My annual fee at Leros (Evros), which is about pro-rata with miyagimoon's figure for my lower boat length, includes lift out and in, pressure washing and storage ashore. There are deals for remaining afloat either over winter or all-year. Water and electricity not included.

My yard cost (note not a marina) is €1000 for 7 months including lift and pressure wash on a 10m yacht. Only storage on hard!!
When I was @ Messolonghi the annual berthing cost (6 months in and 6 out) was €1726, including lifts and washing.

Snap. We are in a yard to the north of Athens, at Oropou, with a charge of just under €1000 for 7 months including lift-in, out, pressure wash, water and electricity (but only when aboard). This is for an 11.5m yacht. Last year we paid €2,900 in Gouvia for six months, caught out by a hefty surcharge if you leave the yacht ashore for more than 3 months.
Living aboard when ashore is permitted in our present yard, but was not in Gouvia. That will be really convenient come fitting-out time (not too long now
).Thanks Miyagimoon for all those figures, it could be really helpful for next year.

Actually it is illegal to live aboard a boat on the hard anywhere in Greece, many yards/marinas turn a blind eye for short periods because otherwise they'd lose business. I know this because I had a long chat about it with the new president of the marina here.

Not disbelieving your informant, but I'd only accept that if I could see it in writing. Every yard or marina I've been in in Greece, excepting Gouvia and Levkas (including Ag Nikaloas) had owners living on board.

I didn't know that! Greeks are great at ignoring inconvenient bureaucracy. But maybe (do you know?) it depends on how "living aboard" is defined. As far as most of us are concerned it is just a matter of staying on board overnight for a few nights for the purpose of getting work done. I can well understand the objection to long-term liveaboarding ashore.

There is another on Aegina that is cheaper than those quoted, contact me if needing a better price.
