Pleasurecraft Harbours
All forty-two pleasurecraft harbours that can be found in Andalusía provide the nautical visitor with everything they may ask for: First class services, modern and clean facilities, an infrastructure suited to the size and relevance of each harbour, petrol, mechanical workshops, dry docks, covered hard standing and, above all, quality and a friendly staff that will be delighted to assist you.
Most of these pleasurecraft harbours host Navigation Schools and Nautical Clubs that will assist you in getting the diplomas or in improving your abilities along with connecting you to the local nautical scene. You will discover new places and make new friends.
Andalucía has a rich culture, with many traditions and monuments, the best way to get to know it is by visiting the many pleasurecraft harbours that can be found along the whole of the coast. Antique civilisations have sailed along these coasts and many Phoenician, Roman and Arabic remains are scattered under these waters. Those keen on diving will be able to see ship wrecks together with their cargo scattered over the sea bed, witnesses to great sailing epics during the history of the world and of Andalucía.
You can sail through the Estrecho de Gibraltar passing by the Cabo de Trafalgar, renown for the famous battle with the same name. Drop Anchor in one of the concealed coves of clear waters, shelter in any of the harbours of an unique spot like the "Puerto Deportivo de Punta de la Mona" or the "Puerto Deportivo de San José", join the Andalusian scene and see the glamour of "Puerto Banús" or of the "Puerto de Benalmádena", sail up the river Guadiana and anchor in "Sanlúcar the Guadiana", or sail through the Guadalquivir river to reach the mythical Sevilla.
Pleasurecraft harbours can be considered the backbone of all nautical sports, a flagship for tourism.
