Los Cristianos - Docking

Entrance

The entrance to the harbor becomes clear once Punta Rasca is rounded. The entrance is wide with the beach area cordoned off with a line of buoys.

Marina Information

The marina here is full, with a long waiting list for permanent berths, therefore there is no space available for transient yachts.

Dinghies can be landed by the fishermen's cooperative quay, on the inside, by the fuel dock. Dinghy thefts have been reported here. There are showers on the public beach.

Lift out at the boatyard here is now possible for international yachts. The boatyard, Marina Seca Los Cristianos, belongs to the Port Authority, so prices are very reasonable. See boatyards for more details.

Anchoring

Anchoring has been prohibited inside the harbor since 1998. A port launch used to visit any yacht anchored and ask them to anchor further out.

The designated yacht anchorage is to the SE of the green starboard buoy marking the entrance into the harbor. This is both a long dinghy ride away from the shore and facilities and also prone to swell, so few yachts remain here longer than absolutely necessary.

If you anchor off Las Vistas beach, to the SW of the port, harbor authorities will ask you to move and you risk being fined.
