Any pet entering the Permitted Areas must be accompanied by its owner, or by a person holding the written authorization of its owner. It should be supervised at all times and on a leash if is over six kilograms. It should wear a muzzle if deemed necessary by the owner, especially if it has aggressive tendencies. It must also meet all the requirements of the applicable precautionary health measures for diseases and infections that may spread due to its movement within the premises of the marina.

The aforementioned rules do not apply to companion dogs accompanying individuals with disabilities within the marina.

Every individual accompanying a pet within the marina facilities bears the sole responsibility of keeping the premises clean by collecting and throwing away any animal waste in the respective bins. Those with pets must also be able to demonstrate – upon request by the entry guards, the health and/or veterinary authorities located within the marina area – all necessary supporting documents and/or health documents relating to the pet, including the pet passport and health booklet. In accordance with the law, the pet owner and animal companion bears sole responsibility for any injury or death of any visitor or other pet caused by his/her own animal within the marina premises.
