Puerto Calero - General Info
Description:
Puerto Calero is situated just SW of Puerto del Carmen on Lanzarote’s south-east coast. The harbour is well sheltered from the waves and there are plenty of spaces for yachts. The harbour infrastructure is very good and it is a great place for exploring the island.
A preferred base in the Canaries for leaving boats unattended for any length of time or for undertaking repairs. Despite many restaurants and a fully-equipped yard, the area is quiet and relaxed.
Entrance Notes and Cautions:
Contact the Marina via telephone on +34 928 511285 or on VHF Channel 9 to announce your arrival. The approach and entry to the marina are very straight-forward with no hazards and a minimum of 7m depth in the entry channel. The marina opens towards the SW and is identified by a tower light at the end of the south breakwater and a portside channel marker and a red light set into the end of the dock wall. With only a maximum 3m tidal range, the marina can be safely accessed at all times, day and night.
Cruiser Highlights:
Puerto Calero marina, on Lanzarote’s sheltered south coast, has earned a reputation as one of the world’s top sailing destinations while retaining a characteristic village-type atmosphere. Restaurants line the waterfront and onsite services include a boatyard, shops, car and bike hire and sailing schools.

When we came to the marina, we were received by very friendly staff. Ideal for visiting Lanzarote and going for a walk. Well protected from any swell.
Puerto Calero has a special pre-transat berthing offer this autumn, whereby transatlantic cruisers can enjoy a three-month rate of only 33€/m² (+7% Canarian tax) per day.
Have just spent 6 days at this marina, and have been very impressed with all the staff, cleanliness of toilets and showers, and ease of catching a bus to the next local town. The marina is quiet at night, even when windy there no horrible swell as with many marinas I have stayed in..pleasent eating places aline the place, all in all, a very pleasant stay.
