Vilanova Grand Marina - Barcelona is the first set of facilities in the Mediterranean conceived and designed exclusively to accommodate and provide all-round services for Superyachts, with a specialised Repair & Refit shipyard.

This is a unique business project, specialising in Superyachts and designed to satisfy all of their needs, and an innovative one as well, given the customer and technical services it provides to its customers. In a single, consolidated space, the marina integrates a port infrastructure and a technical area for repair & refit and provides everything captains, crews and owners could require on board as well as on land.

Located at the Ponent pier at the Vilanova Port, in the heart of the Garraf coast, just South of Barcelona, this unique marina opened for business in April 2009 with the aim to become a benchmark for 21st century port facilities, given its exclusive design, excellent location and the technical and customer services provided. These features make the marina the perfect spot for Superyachts all year round.

Strategic Location

The location of the new marina in Vilanova i la Geltru has been studied at length. In addition to offering owners a peaceful environment with clear waters and pure air, it is located just 35 min from Barcelona centre, and only 20 min away from its international airport, which is highly accessible thanks to an important road and railway network. The AVE (high speed train) connects the Catalan capital with Madrid and Zaragoza. In addition, all Vilanova Grand Marina - Barcelona users have access to a helistop which is located on the marina's premises.

Vilanova i la Geltru, the capital of Garraf and home to 60,000 inhabitants, boasts all the services typical of a large city and the comfort of a relaxing setting, as well as proximity to the Garraf Natural Park and a mild climate throughout the year. With its privileged location (L41° 12' North and L1° 43' East), one can easily reach the most prized destinations of elite yachting, such as: Marbella, Mallorca, Ibiza, the Cote d'Azur, Sardinia, etc. Vilanova Grand Marina - Barcelona is on the gateway of the routes leading to the Caribbean too.

The port of Vilanova i la Geltru is third largest in Catalonia and probably the one with the cleanest waters out of all the Mediterranean ports located near big cities. The large harbour area ensures clear and calm waters, which equates to less water consumption and maintenance, while providing easy access from the sea with its wide entrance. The new marina is located by the port's interior dock, in an isolated, controlled-access area that offers privacy to its patrons.
