Port de Llançà: berths, boats and northern Costa Brava marinas

Port de Llançà is one of the principal sports harbours on the northern Costa Brava. Ports de la Generalitat publishes 550 sports berths for boats from 6 to 15 metres, while nearby Colera and Portbou add smaller but relevant alternatives.

The guide distinguishes Llançà from Colera and Portbou and keeps each boat at its real published location. Berth availability, services and operating conditions must be confirmed with each facility.

01Marina & berths

Viewified berth and marina context, with the scope of each published figure clearly identified.

02Buy / sell

Viewings, negotiation, survey, documentation and handover with the boat’s real location preserved.

03Costa Brava

Local context for operating, maintaining or moving a boat without turning proximity into a fictitious location.

04Colera and Portbou

The two smaller ports are worth understanding when comparing berthing or organising a transaction in the northernmost Costa Brava, but neither should.

01 · THE MARINA

A strong northern base with two smaller ports close to the French border

Institutional and operator data explained from the perspective of a purchase, sale, pre-purchase survey or practical boat ownership.

Ports de la Generalitat publishes 550 sports berths at Llançà for boats between 6 and 15 metres. The harbour is a useful base for the northern Costa Brava and for movements towards Cap de Creus or the French coast.

Colera is a smaller harbour with 150 published berths for boats from 3 to 13 metres. Portbou, close to the border, publishes 297 berths for boats from 5 to 20 metres. Their scale and services differ from Llançà, which is why they are treated as nearby alternatives rather than merged into one marina.

For a purchase or sale in this stretch of coast, the exact port affects technician access, haul-out options, road logistics and the practical organisation of a survey. A generic location such as “north Costa Brava” is not enough for planning.

Rates, berth availability, works and operating conditions can change and should be confirmed with the facility.

02 · INVENTORY

Boats for sale genuinely located in Llançà

Only inventory whose published location identifies Llançà is shown as being here. Boats in Colera, Portbou or Port de la Selva keep their own location.

We do not show fictitious inventory.

There is currently no Fontnautic boat whose published location can be reliably matched to this guide. You can browse all boats for sale or tell us what you are looking for.

03 · BUY

Buying a boat in Llançà: check the exact port before planning the survey

The northern cluster contains several distinct facilities. Confirm the actual berth, technician access, lifting or haul-out options and whether the sea trial starts from Llançà, Colera or Portbou before arranging travel.

01

Selection

Use, budget, LOA, propulsion, configuration and expected condition.

02

Viewing

Initial review of the boat, real location, available documents and whether the asking price makes sense.

03

survey

Pre-purchase inspection, sea trial and haul-out where appropriate.

04

Closing

Negotiation, contract, documentation, handover and subsequent logistics.

04 · LOCAL CONTEXT

Colera and Portbou complete the boating map north of Llançà

The two smaller ports are worth understanding when comparing berthing or organising a transaction in the northernmost Costa Brava, but neither should be presented as if it were Llançà.

COLERA

150 berths

Ports de la Generalitat publishes boats from 3 to 13 m in this smaller northern harbour.

PORTBOU

297 berths

Published range of 5 to 20 m and a strategic position beside the French border.

LLANÇÀ

550 sports berths

The larger local base, with published sports berths for boats from 6 to 15 m.

05 · INFRASTRUCTURE

Infrastructure varies materially between Llançà, Colera and Portbou

The three ports differ in scale and services. Technical compatibility should therefore be confirmed with the exact facility rather than inferred from another marina a few miles away.

BERTH

Dimensions and access

Confirm actual LOA, beam, draft, berth assignment, dates and operating access.

TECHNICAL

Lifting and boatyard

Viewify lifting capacity, boat dimensions, booking availability and whether the intended work is permitted.

SUPPLIES

Water, shore power and fuel

Published services should be checked for operating hours, berth compatibility and the date of the operation.

SEA TRIAL

Movement and handover

Boat condition, weather, insurance, crew and marina rules all affect a safe sea trial or delivery.

06 · OWNERS

Selling in Llançà with the northern location clearly identified

Stating the real harbour and berth context helps buyers organise viewings, technicians and sea trials and avoids confusion with nearby Colera or Portbou.

PRICE

Valuation with comparables

Market value should reflect condition, engines, maintenance, equipment, documentation and real demand.

PRESENTATION

Documents build confidence

History, invoices, inventory and coherent photography reduce friction during viewings and negotiation.

CLOSING

Survey and handover

Plan access, sea trial, haul-out where appropriate, documentation and post-completion logistics.

09 · FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about Port de Llançà

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 Llançà 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 Llançà?

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 Llançà?

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 Llançà 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 Llançà?

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.
