Marina Lanzarote
Marina Lanzarote is situated in a natural harbour in front of the city of Arrecife. The Marina has hosted the prestigious Panerai Transat Classique and is due to welcome the RORC Transatlantic race fleet for the fifth time this autumn. On a stretch of coast punctuated by 17th century forts, the site is historically attractive and a popular local venue due to the eclectic choice of restaurants and bars. The contrasting clean and modern design includes an ample shipyard with an 820-tonne travel hoist.
