Full Description & Details
Port de Portopetro is a marina on the southeast coast of Mallorca, Spain, at the edge of the small village of Portopetro in the municipality of Santanyi. The harbour is a working fishing port with a modest marina operation, and the surrounding area is known for its traditional character and proximity to the Mondrago Natural Park. The marina is distinct from the larger and more exclusive Cala d'Or marina roughly 1 NM away, and skippers should not confuse the two when planning a stopover.
The marina offers 230 berths with a maximum length overall of 12 metres and a maximum draft of 3 metres. Berths are available for overnight stays, and water and electricity are supplied at the berths. The harbour provides a crane, a slipway, and facilities for handling waste including bilge waste. A laundry service is available, and the marina has a meteorological service for weather information. Wi-Fi is offered, and there is a restaurant and bar associated with the port.
Contact the harbour office by VHF channel 9 or by telephone at +34 971 64 34 76, or by email at [email protected]. The address is Port de Portopetro 7691 Santanyi. The marina is operated under the PortsIB network of Balearic ports. A fish market operates in the harbour area, and the village itself is small, with boutiques, shops, and cafes, while larger services are found in Cala d'Or nearby.
Portopetro is a natural harbour that has largely retained its original character. The best season for a visit is the Mediterranean summer, though the port is a year-round facility. The marina is not bookable through some online platforms, so direct contact with the harbour office is recommended. The surrounding waters are clear, and the Mondrago Natural Park is accessible from the port, including by glass-bottom boat trips.
