Port de Blanes: berths, Club de Vela and boats on the southern Costa Brava
Blanes is the major boating node at the southern end of the Costa Brava. Ports de la Generalitat publishes 717 sports berths for the wider harbour, while Club de Vela Blanes publishes capacity for 309 boats and lengths from 7.5 to 24 metres.
The total sports-basin figure and the Club capacity describe different scopes. Cala Canyelles is included as a nearby smaller harbour, not as if it were part of Blanes itself.
Viewings, negotiation, survey, documentation and handover with the boat’s real location preserved.
Local context for operating, maintaining or moving a boat without turning proximity into a fictitious location.
The smaller harbour is relevant to local boating and should be discoverable, but its scale and purpose are better explained here than diluted into a s.
01 · THE MARINA
The southern Costa Brava’s main boating base, with Barcelona within the wider market
Institutional and operator data explained from the perspective of a purchase, sale, pre-purchase survey or practical boat ownership.
Ports de la Generalitat publishes 717 sports berths for the Port de Blanes sports basin. Club de Vela Blanes separately publishes capacity for 309 boats and a length range from 7.5 to 24 metres, so the two figures should not be treated as interchangeable.
Blanes has a strategic position at the southern edge of the Costa Brava, making it relevant both to Girona-based boating and to owners, buyers or technicians travelling from the Barcelona area. That can simplify access, but survey and haul-out arrangements still depend on the specific facility and boat.
Further north near Lloret de Mar, Cala Canyelles publishes 134 berths for boats up to 8 metres. Its scale makes it useful local context without requiring a separate commercial landing page in the current architecture.

09 · FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions about Port de Blanes
The answers distinguish whole-port data, Club or concession data and the points that must still be confirmed for a specific boat.
How many berths does Port de Blanes have?
Published figures depend on scope. This page states the relevant official or operator figure and identifies when it refers to the Club, the sports basin or a separate nearby marina.
What size boats can use Port de Blanes?
The published ranges shown above are a planning reference. The actual berth, beam, draft, weight and marina rules must be confirmed for the individual boat.
Can I arrange a pre-purchase survey at Port de Blanes?
In principle a survey can be organised when the owner, marina and technical providers can coordinate access, sea trial and any required haul-out. Availability must be confirmed for the date and vessel.
Does a boat sale at Port de Blanes include the berth?
No assumption should be made. A berth lease, concession or right of use is separate unless documentation explicitly includes it in the transaction.
Can Fontnautic show boats for sale in Port de Blanes?
Yes, when an active Fontnautic listing genuinely publishes this marina or location. We do not move nearby inventory between ports to populate a local page.
Should marina data be reconfirmed before travelling?
Yes. Rates, berth availability, technical-service capacity, works and operating rules can change. The guide records its verification date and links to primary sources.
Why can different sources show different berth figures?
Because a Club, concession, marina sector and the complete port can be different statistical and management scopes. The guide keeps those scopes separate rather than forcing one headline number.
