D-Marin acquires the San Rocco marina in Trieste

D-Marin has announced the acquisition of Porto San Rocco Marina Resort, in Muggia, near Trieste, in a deal that further expands the Athens-based group’s presence in Italy and the Upper Adriatic. Moreover, the company – which is controlled by the private equity fund Infravia Capital Partners – is experiencing steady growth: it has expanded from a single marina in Italia in 2023 to the current nine, making Italia the market in which it operates the largest number of marinas.

In total, D-Marin operates 29 marinas across nine countries (Italia, Spain, France, Croatia, Albania, Greece, Turkey, Malta and the United Arab Emirates), with over 14,000 berths, of which 1,000 are reserved for superyachts. Situated in the Gulf of Trieste, close to the borders with Slovenia and Croatia, the latest acquisition – San Rocco Marina – occupies a prominent position in the Northern Adriatic. The marina, in fact, offers easy access to the Italian, Slovenian and Croatian coasts.

“Porto San Rocco,” emphasised Oliver Dörschuck, CEO of D-Marin, “is situated in a strategic location, at the gateway to the Adriatic, and can accommodate yachts of up to 60 metres. It fits in seamlessly with our marinas in Italia and Croatia. We are delighted to be able to build on the solid foundations on which Porto San Rocco is based.”

The marina has 546 berths for yachts ranging from 8 to 60 metres in length. The range of hospitality and leisure facilities includes hotels, restaurants, bars, shops, a swimming pool, a fitness centre and facilities dedicated to wellness and personal care, a petrol station and a conference room. Thanks also to its road, rail, air and sea links, the marina is a strategic base for yacht owners, skippers and crews wishing to sail in the Adriatic. Porto San Rocco also complements Punta Faro, in the Upper Adriatic, and the group’s marinas in Liguria, Tuscany and Sardinia.
