ARRIVING BY SEA
28º 57.951 N 13º 32.272 W: Marina Lanzarote
28º 54,922 N 13 42,417 W: Marina Puerto Calero
Marina Lanzarote is located in Arrecife, within the harbour of Puerto Naos, situated along the inner length of the SE-facing harbour breakwater and just SW of the commercial harbour, Puerto los Marmoles. Around this area it is advisable to keep a distance of 0.5 miles from the shore to avoid the reef. The marina has an extensive and well-equipped yard with an 820-tonne travel hoist. The fuel dock can be found just inside the marina.
Puerto Calero is easy to reach as there are no obstructions or obstacles in the area. The harbour mouth opens to the SW. (Fl(3)G.14s13m8M.) The fuel dock lies immediately to starboard as you enter the marina, with the visitors’ dock just opposite, on the end of the port-side wharf.
For more information on the approach to both marinas, have a look at the advice offered on the website:
All vessels should call the marina prior to entry on Ch. VHF 09 (24 horas).
Should you wish to make a reservation or obtain further information, please use the following details. Ensure that the marina office is aware that you are taking part in the RORC Transatlantic Race, so that you are berthed accordingly and benefit from the event berthing rates.
