Any Cheap Marina for winter storage in Ibiza, Alicante, Valencia or Barcelona

Hi all,

I am interested in a recommendation for a cheap/reasonable marina for a 44-foot catamaran winter storage in the Balearic sea area - Ibiza, Valencia, Alicante, Barcelona or any small town with such service.

I appreciate any pointer.

Hi,

I am at Roda de Bara, good price, near Barcelona, super friendly staff. I even have a guy taking care of my boat. Happy for now.

Hi,

I see you found the price list. I can tell you so far I am very happy being there! The town is "cute" and you have 3 restaurants in the Marina.

They also have a place (5mins walking distance) that has won runner up 3 years in a row of Best Ice Cream in the World.

The marina is around 60kms from BCN Airport. I usually rent a car from the airport and head to the marina.

You have big supermarkets in the vicinity as well as stores like Leroy Merlin and others. Tarragona is also not far.

I also rented a storage space.

Feel free to ask any questions you have.

Almerimar seems to be the cheapest option. Good shelter and great community as well.

Re: Any Cheap Marina for winter storage in Ibiza, Alicante, Valencia or Barcelona

I am considered between 3 marias:

1. Roda de Bará
2. San Castle
3. Valencia

Would anyone recommend one over the other?

Questions:

Is it safe to leave the boat in Water berth at any of these marinas?
Both #2 and #3 marina manager said they have staff checking mooring lines every day. Can I just plug in electric cord to charge battery and turn on Auto Bilge pump? I have never been at any Spain marina to know what to expect.

Thank for any pointer.

Hi

My boat is in the water in Roda. They have people checking the boats every day. They have Marineros 24hrs.

Also I have a guy who takes care of my boat, I can give you his contact. He charges very reasonable rates.

I am also plugged in to shore power 24hrs a day.

The PO of our boat is in Roda for winter. I respect him a great deal, and he picked it out of all the choices between Italy and Gib, so I'd give it three looks, not two.

Yikes, did you notice the fine print on those 2019 tariffs; add 21% Spanish VAT!

Re: Any Cheap Marina for winter storage in Ibiza, Alicante, Valencia or Barcelona

Hi James, I'm in PORT GINESTA with my Lagoon 50 and I absolutely suggest you this port...only 10 min from Barcelona Airport and 25 min from the center of Barcelona...

You will find more information and pricelist in this website:
