Puerto Deportivo Caleta de Vélez

Caleta de Vélez is a recently renovated, Andalusian government-owned marina on the Costa del Sol's eastern stretch, making it one of the better-maintained stops along this coastline. The surrounding beachfront promenade gives it a lively, lived-in feel rather than the sterile vibe some marinas carry, and the historic town of Vélez-Málaga — capital of the Axarquía region — is right on your doorstep with its Moorish castle and inland wine country worth exploring.
