With its many bars, clubs, restaurants and shops this marina has everything the visiting yachtsman could want except space! Both the town and the marina are often full to bursting providing an exciting and lively atmosphere. It would be as well to call ahead to enquire about free berths.This port would make an ideal crew change destination with the proximity of the international airport and the numerous hotels and apartments. The marina is holds a Spanish "blue flag" and can provide the visiting yacht with most facilities including lift out, hard standing, chandlers, engineers and yacht club. Yacht Charter is also available from the marina. Road communication is good with a highway that runs around the island. Bus services are frequent, efficient and reasonably priced. Several car hire firms can be found in the town, and taxis are numerous. The southern airport, Reina Sofia, is about 16km to the east of the town and the northern airport is about an hour's drive away. From nearby Los Cristianos ferry's operating to Gran Canaria, La Gomera, La Palma and El Hierro can be found. Numerous excursion trips by coach to different parts of the island are available. As you would expect from a purpose built tourist town fresh, frozen and canned provisions are readily available from the many supermarkets and local shops. As with the other islands, here is a great opportunity to replenish bonded goods because of the generous tax laws. The same tax laws also means that refuelling is a lot cheaper than in many northern European countries.Medical and dental facilities are provided by private clinics in the town with the main hospitals being in Santa Cruz. There are several pharmacies which are well stocked. A lifeboat rescue service is stationed in Los Cristianos.
