Marina Canela

From CruisersWiki

The marina of Isla Canela is a new marina constructed on the western bank of the River Carreras, which enters the sea 3.5 miles east of the estuary of the River Guadiana, the river which marks the Spanish/Portuguese border. A second marina, in Isla Cristina, lies about half a mile further upriver on the eastern bank. Both marinas are only suitable for smaller vessels up to 24 metres overall length.

Communication

Call Marina Isla Canela on VHF channel 09 or telephone +34 (959) 479 000 before arrival.

Navigation

The Marina of Isla Canela is situated just under a mile from the entrance to the River Carreras. A red and white marker buoy about half a mile off the moles at the river entrance should be left close to starboard on the approach, which should be on a course of 312°. The ends of the moles are marked with red and green markers (lit). Keep to the port side of the channel to avoid the shallow sandbanks to starboard. A large blue sign on a white-painted building to port about a mile upriver from the buoy indicates the position of the marina. There are often large fishing boats on moorings just south of the marina entrance and smaller ones to the north side of the marina basin.

Berthing

Berthing assistance is available. Alternatively, berth at the reception pontoon to port just past the travel hoist bay and visit the adjacent marina office.
