This is a quieter marina in the north of the Ria at Pobra de Caraminal, a popular marina and town. Modern and sheltered it is very easy to access, even in difficult weather and has alternative nearby anchorages. Plenty of room to manoeuvre at the entrance with spacious pontoons and helpful marineros. Finger pontoons about 3/4 length and low. Contact on Ch. 09 on arrival (difficult to hear marinero sometimes). Waiting pontoon is exposed to the NE as on outside of marina, but very long and easy to tie up to. FUEL berth, water and electricity on pontoons (included in berthing fee), fuel berth inside breakwater stbd. side. Showers and toilets are basic but clean. Club bar and restaurant on site, rubbish bins with recycling. Min. depth 3m. Secure marina for winter storage, space ashore for hard standing. 40-ton travel lift administered by Club at N end of the fishing harbour. Fees very reasonable. Camping Gaz exchanged in the town hardware store. 2 big supermarkets nearby. Is exposed to the SE.

    We came here for one night mid-July. Called on VHF on approach to see if visitor’s berth, they answered but very faint (it’s a marinero on the docks using a handheld). If you can’t understand or get an answer, then there’s a visitor’s berth as you come in directly ahead of you – very long – so you can always pull up there and ask about a berth once docked. We got shown straight to a finger berth 2nd aisle in – very straightforward berthing with a marinero there to help. The finger docks are about 3/4 length – so if coming in bows to you need a long stern line (we are 36 feet). They are low, so hang fenders low. Cost for one night 35 euros – includes power and water and WiFi (ok – not for streaming though). Facilities at the yacht club at the top of the right are sailing club standard. Basic showers and toilets and a bar with tapas. Good value and good size portions. The town is small but you can find a small Gadis supermarket just 5 min. walk from the marina (to the left and one street back behind taxi rank). There’s a launderette a short distance on the left up the road straight out of the marina up the hill, open 24 hrs, 5 euros for a 16kg wash including detergent. Marine supplies can be found in the adjacent boatyard. We asked about an annual berthing cost here and they quoted approx. 200 Euros a month. There are security gates with a code, and the marina office is right outside the main gate, however I did see it open alot and no one in the office, so security is perhaps dubious. That said, Galicia is not known for crime against yachts. It was really hot when were here and there were frequent gusts of wind from the surrounding mountains, so watch out for that on arrival. We did discover incredible rock pools (pozas) up in the hills. Take a cab for 5 euros (just 5 minutes in taxi) as it’s a 15 minute walk uphill through the forest to the pools from the road. Shady in the mornings, so if out of season probably better in the afternoons. Very beautiful and lots of fun.

    The sheltered marina at Pobra do Caraminal is open all year and can take yachts up to approx 15 meters on fingers. Larger yachts need to berth on outside breakwater. Marina charges are reasonable.
    Good anchorage in 3 to 4 m outside the marina.
    The marineros are very helpful and knowledgeable. They can arrange mechanical and electrical specialists, who we have found to do good work at reasonable rates.
    Fuel is available in the inner fishing harbour.
    The town has many good restaurants specialising in local fish dishes. At the top end is the fine restaurant NOJIRA run by its Chef / owner Luis.
    Two good supermarkets nearby.
