[[Puerto de la Duquesa]] is a privately run Marina and it shows. Good security, very kind and amiable staff and well taken care of. It is a medium sized Marina and I am not sure how busy they would be in the high season so calling ahead might be a good idea. The Marina is in a touristy setting which is devoid of charm or authenticity but it does mean that you have easy access to all sort of international food (interestingly enough the Tapas offering is lacking but plenty of asian restaurants to chose from weirdly enough). There is small beach next to the Marina. The "town" itself is about a 10 min stroll away but not much there other than restaurants catering to the tourists near the strand promenade. We didn't explore the town extensively though.

Puerto de la Duquesa is a privately run Marina and it shows. Good security, very kind and amiable staff and well taken care of. All that for less than it costs to berth at the city owned marinas in Andalusia! It is a medium sized Marina and I am not sure how busy they would be in the high season so calling ahead might be a good idea. The Marina is in a touristy setting which is devoid of charm or authenticity but it does mean that you have easy access to all sort of international food (interestingly enough the tapas offering is lacking but plenty of asian restaurants to chose from weirdly enough). There is small beach next to the Marina. The "town" itself is about a 10 min stroll away but not much there other than restaurants catering to the tourists near the strand promenade. We didn't explore the town extensively though.
