The Urbanization Puerto Calero

On the south coast of Lanzarote between
Puerto del Carmen and Playa Quemada (see map), there is one of its most interesting sights:

The urbanization and marina Puerto Calero,
one of the world's most modern and exclusive yacht harbours, named after their creator
José Calero, and in short called 'Puerto Calero'.

After an extension, that was carried out from 1997 to 1999, the marina
now consists of 420 berths, giving shelter to yachts of 8 to 75 metres in length..

The residential area has also expanded.

The 18 hole golf course, designed to international standards,
is in the final stage of planning.

In addition, two hotels have been built
with a total of more than 1.300 beds.
One will be opened in April,
the other one in August 2003.

Every year, important sporting events take place in Puerto Calero,
e.g. the Deep-sea Fishing Competition, or the regattas
for the Prince of Asturias Cup, the Princess Cristina Cup,
the César Manrique Cup, or Puerto Calero's own Cup..
