Giovinazzo, a small town and fishing harbour, lies in a small creek about 4 miles ESE of Molfetta. The harbour is protected on the E side by a mole extending about 200 m NW from the shore, and on the W by a short angled breakwater extending about 125 m NE from the E entrance point to the creek. A short mole extends E from the NE side of the town near the root of the E mole. Anchorage may be obtained close NW of the harbour in depths of about 24 m, good holding ground.
