Harbour icon Puerto Playa Santiago [[Playa Santiago#Puerto Playa Santiago|Puerto Playa Santiago]] 28°01.601'N, 017°11.852'W

Yachts usualy go alongside the main quay, fenders and possibly an anchor to hold the boat off the quay are indicated. The port is exposed to waves from the 2nd and 3rd quadrant and it is only sheltered by the main dyke, so the 2nd quadrant waves enter with high energy in the dock. The mooring buoys in the harbour are for the use of local boats. The holding is not very good on a sandy bottom. Water, electricity, ATM. Travel-lift. 24 hr CCTV.
