Marbella Port Concession Set for 50-Year Extension
Marbella's Virgen del Carmen marina is set for a major upgrade with a proposed 50-year concession extension, paving the way for over €16 million in investment
Marbella's Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen is a crucial part of the city's infrastructure, attracting visitors and offering leisure opportunities. Its future is now set for a significant upgrade, promising enhanced facilities for residents and boat owners alike.
Marbella Town Hall is working with the Junta de Andalucía to extend the concession for the Puerto Deportivo Virgen del Carmen. The proposed extension is for 50 years, significantly longer than the 25 years initially planned.
Mayor Ángeles Muñoz announced the plans on 5 November 2026. She had met with Mario Muñoz-Atanet, the Junta's Minister for Public Works and Mobility, on 4 November 2026. A further meeting took place on 5 November 2026 with Carlos Romero, the port director.
Following these discussions, Mayor Muñoz underlined that the primary goal of this extended concession is to modernise the port's infrastructure. She noted that the Town Hall aims to make a substantial investment in the port, exceeding €16 million. This significant investment is the reason for the request for a 50-year concession period, supported by the Junta.
