Salerno, April 4, 2025 – Ocibar, a leading Mallorcan company specializing in marina and shipyard management for over 35 years, has acquired a 25% stake in Marina d’Arechi in Salerno, Italy. The remaining 75% remains with the Gallozzi Group, which has operated the marina since its inception.
This marks Ocibar’s first investment outside Spain and reinforces its strategic expansion across the Mediterranean. With 950 berths for vessels ranging from 10 to 100 meters, Marina d’Arechi is located at the gateway to the Amalfi Coast, just 25 miles from Capri. The marina offers year-round services and is one of Italy’s largest and best-located ports.
Ocibar CEO Antonio Zaforteza expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “Marina d’Arechi represents a Mediterranean success story with enormous potential. We are excited to integrate it into our network and continue building a unique value proposition for our clients.”
Ocibar operates marinas in Port Tarraco (Tarragona), Port Adriano (Mallorca), Botafoc Ibiza, Marina Santa Eulalia (Ibiza), Marina Port Valencia, and now Marina d’Arechi. With more than 3,500 moorings, over 55,000 m² of commercial space, and 34,000 m² of dry dock facilities, Ocibar is known for its commitment to excellence, sustainability, and top-tier service.
Agostino Gallozzi, CEO of both the Gallozzi Group and Marina d’Arechi, welcomed the alliance: “We’re pleased to welcome Ocibar as a partner who shares our values and vision. This agreement marks the beginning of an exciting new phase for the marina.”
As part of this next chapter, Marina d’Arechi plans major infrastructure upgrades, including an increase in mooring capacity and improved facilities to cater to yachts of all sizes. A hotel development is also in the works, supporting Salerno’s efforts to attract high-end tourism.
With the recent opening of Salerno Costa d’Amalfi Airport—offering private flight services and international connections—Marina d’Arechi is ideally positioned as a luxury gateway to one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world.
