Arrived Porto Santo August 18. Eight yellow mooring balls available within harbor and operated by the marina. Cost on mooring ball less than €7 per night (13m Cat) approx but based on boat size. Marina itself appears full with a mix of local and visiting yachts. Also possible to anchor inside harbor walls – good holding over sand. Take care if anchoring not to be in the way of Porto Santo/Madeira ferry which comes and goes daily. Lovely spot with the nice town about a 15 minute walk away.
