Almeria |
Aguadulce
This is the port that many of the boats, resident further south , Use as
their start point across to the Balearics. |
Almerimar  |
Caleta de Valez  |
Motril |
Garrucha |
| Marina del Este
This is a very pretty port. We would recommend a visit. The entrance is
a little deceiving and the fuel is a little dearer. |
Cabopino  |
Benalmadena
This is a very impressive and pretty place but is becoming very
commercial and more noisy at night. The berths on the Islands and
pontoons enjoy fair security, but those berths else-where have little or
no security, in spite of an infrequent patrol from the Capitania. The
new installation of the "Gardia Civil" at the port adds to its
importance. There is said to be a 2 year waiting list for berths, But
there appears to be a fair change over of berths. |
Fuengirola :- quite a popular stopping place, since it
no more than a few yards ( sorry ) metres away from the town and
restaurants which are numerous. One restaurant in particular , had an excellent
evening of amateur entertainment all free for those eating and
those unable to get a table and crowded around the entrance. We
thoroughly enjoyed the evening. |
Banus
Said to be the millionaires port. We found the Marineros and staff very
polite and helpful, and when we were obliged to pull in their one time,
we found the berth holders either side of us inexperienced but
very friendly. Though we did encounter others who thought we carried a
smell about with us. The port is most conveniently placed along side an
enormous super store where every thing was available. " Cortez Ingles" |

| Sheppards We were unimpressed with the
principality, though I must say that the civic authority have made a
number of improvements recently. Ships "stores" are available
at extremely attractive prices as is the fuel. So take maximum advantage
of your visit. |
| Queensway This is the most attractive port of
the three, and I will probably chose to stay there next visit. I am told
that there is some swell experienced there. |
| Marina Bay Very obliging staff and usually berths
are available. Some berths are allocated along side and quite close to
the restaurants and chandlers |
