General

Sotogrande is an upscale real estate development with a marina/shipyard. It is convenient, about 1/2 hr ride from Gibraltar, and it is now the nearest yard where one can leave a yacht on the hard near Gibraltar.

The development has a number of restaurants and small food store. Other then 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.

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)
