What Marina Port Vell does

Marina Port Vell is a privately held superyacht marina (Marina Port Vell S.A.U.) located on the central Barcelona waterfront at Moll de la Barceloneta, originally constructed for the 1992 Olympic Games. The marina operates 73 berths capable of accommodating superyachts up to 190 meters LOA and dock lengths up to 400 meters, alongside two Business Hubs (The Gallery and Tower Building), five event spaces (The Sea Garden, Blue Wave, Crew Lounge, Meeting Rooms, The Docks), gymnasium and wellness facilities, and an ISPS-compliant 24/7 security operation.

The marina distributes directly through its multilingual website booking system, phone, on-site reception, and presence at international trade shows, serving high-net-worth superyacht owners, captains, crew, and corporate event clients with no intermediary channel structure.
