Benalmadena Marina is one of the most amazing port and residential complexes in the world, with exemplary facilities and very attractive and unique architecture.

It has twice been awarded the “Best Marina in the World” in 1995 and 1997. Since 1987 it has also been awarded the European Blue Flag for the quality of its services and waters.

With over 1,100 moorings for boats up to 6 metres long, Benalmadena Marina has quality facilities and offers a full schedule of activities and events due to the privileged climate of the southern Mediterranean.

Boasting over 320 days of sunshine per year, with an average annual temperature of 23° C, it is perfectly suited to maximise all types of tourism, recreation and leisure activities.

 

Activities In The Port

The marina is Benalmadena’s jewel and one of the Costa del Sol’s busiest attractions with countless cafes, bars and restaurants to enjoy. There is also a very busy nightlife with a multitude of nightclubs playing modern dance music and is home to a younger mixed European crowd that parties on until the early hours.

There are many attractions in the marina for all the family. There is Selwo Water Centre Aquarium, you can charter boats, sail along the coastline to Fuengirola and back on a pirate ship, or experience a whole host of water sports including water skiing, scuba diving, sailing and kayaking.

There are two children’s play areas that have recently been setup that have harness trampolines, and other exciting rides and activities for kids.

Near one of the many entrances there is also a supermarket that sells everything you need and is open 365 days a year.

Situated in the heart of the marina is “Centro Nautica” which serves as a hub for sailors to meet socially and organise sporting events.

There is a fine restaurant inside the Centro Nautica and several meeting rooms and a few shops that sell sailing equipment.

The beaches surrounding the marina offer fine waters and clean sands that all the family can enjoy with plenty of parasols and beds to hire if needed.

Restaurant and Bars

For the foodies there are over 50 eateries offering every type of cuisine imaginable. Indian, Mexican, Italian, French, Spanish tapas, Argentinean steak house, all you can eat Chinese buffet, Greek and much more.

Don’t forget to try out some of the little Spanish tapas terrace bars as they serve up some of the best fish dishes on the coast and a host of other Spanish delicacies.

I would recommend simply strolling through the port and enjoying the electric atmosphere. Sit and enjoy a cafe whilst taking in the stunning views of the luxury penthouse apartments “floating” in the water with the impressive boats and yachts glistening in the turquoise waters.

Marina Awards

The European Union via the ADEAC, has awarded the Puerto Deportivo de Benalmádena the Blue Flag for Clean Seas of Europe thanks to the quality of services and its waters. This international award has been awarded every year without interruption since 1987 until today.

The Marina of Benalmádena has been honoured twice (1995 and 1997) as the “Best Marina in the World” award granted by specialized international journals.
