The development has a number of restaurants and small food store. Other than that it of no character whatsoever.

The little town of Sotogrande, about 10 min walk from the marina, offers very little.

The marina is located 15 nM from Gibraltar. It is a pleasant enough marina and has a small shipyard.

Repairs/Yard

Transport

Personal experience

  • I left my boat on the yard for 3 months in October of 2004. They did all the work I had asked them to do and the boat was ready for launch on the day of my arrival. The marina is very pleasant. --Istioploos 13:34, 21 June 2008 (MDT)
