Full Description & Details
Port de Torredembarra is a marina on the Costa Daurada, the Catalan coast south of Barcelona. It sits at 41 degrees 7 minutes 30 seconds North, 1 degree 24 minutes East, with the town of Torredembarra behind it and the old town of Altafulla nearby. The marina is managed by Port Torredembarra, SA, and operates under the Ports de la Generalitat network. It is a working harbour with a separate fishing basin, so visiting yachts share the area with local fishing activity.
The marina offers 695 berths for vessels from 6 to 28 metres in length, with a good selection of berths in the 15 to 20 metre range for both sail and motor boats. The entrance is 65 metres wide, and the depth at the entrance and inside the harbour is 3.5 metres, with a maximum draft of 4 to 7 metres depending on the berth. The fairway and inner harbour depths are modest, so deep-draft vessels should check their assigned berth before entering. Holding is not described in the sources, but the marina is fully developed with pontoons and finger berths.
Facilities include water and electricity at the berth, showers, changing rooms, laundry, a restaurant, and a shopping or leisure area. For maintenance, there is a boatyard, a 5-tonne crane, a 50-tonne gantry crane, a slipway, and repair services. Provisions are available, and there is a car park. The marina has 24-hour surveillance and a captain's office. VHF channel 9 is monitored. The fishing harbour has 410 linear metres of quay and supports the local fleet.
Approach is straightforward from the sea, but the 3.5 metre depth inside the harbour limits entry for larger yachts. The best season is the Mediterranean summer, when the Costa Daurada is busy. There are no specific restrictions noted in the sources, but the fishing basin is separate from the recreational marina. The nearby Torredembarra beach and Altafulla old town are within walking distance for crew ashore.
How to get there
Approach Port de Torredembarra from the sea on the Costa Daurada, south of Barcelona. The marina entrance is 65 metres wide, and the depth at the entrance is 3.5 metres. Contact the marina on VHF channel 9 before entering to confirm your berth and the depth at the assigned finger, since the inner harbour depth is also 3.5 metres.
The coordinates are 41 degrees 7 minutes 30 seconds North, 1 degree 24 minutes East. Once inside, follow the marina's instructions for berthing. The town of Torredembarra is directly behind the marina, and Altafulla old town is nearby.
The marina office is in the captain's building at Port Torredembarra, SA, s/n, 43830 Torredembarra, reachable by phone at +34 977 643 234. There is no airport at the marina; the nearest major airport is Barcelona, about an hour north by road.
