The Gerenian Navy provides defence of Gerenia, its territorial waters, and the Camoleo, which forms part of the southeastern border. The Navy has two bases in operation: one in Bau Fusares, in the province of Maremedres (where the Navy's headquarters are also located), and another one in Arina Bay, in the province of Erstveda. Two other Navy bases are situated in Helfrich Island and eastern Barzat.
