Sasha Romashova, the Malaga megayacht marina is getting too small

Some of the world's largest and most luxurious private yachts have become accustomed to making stops at the port of Málaga. The occupancy of ... the so-called IGY Málaga Marina (the marina of docks 1 and part of 2) has reached "exceptional levels" of activity this year. The docks have been at 100% capacity almost throughout the entire fall, and due to this circumstance, it has been necessary to arrange for mooring space at other docks.

But even so, it has not been possible to satisfy all requests. The demand has been such that, at certain times, due to the lack of available space, the marina managers have had to divert vessels that were anchored in the Bay waiting for a mooring to other ports, such as Gibraltar. "Málaga is now a key port and is well positioned on the map for owners and captains, who previously always went to Palma and Barcelona," says its commercial director, Sasha Romashova.
