Puerto de Conil

The port of Conil is located between the mouth of the Roche River and the lighthouse on the cape of the same name, just 8 km from Conil de la Frontera.

You can see the boats used in the Almadraba fishing, as well as various fishing boats in the harbor. The is also a restaurant called Restaurante El Pastor which looks very local and I definitely try it out during the next weeks.

Next to the dock, you can see the fish market since fishing in Conil is artisanal and local. Conil fish includes a wide variety of species, such as bluefin tuna, sea bream, snapper, black sea bass, and corvina. Depending on the season, other species are also caught, such as squid, dogfish, sea bream, octopus, sea bream, red mullet, and scabbardfish, among others.

There is also a fish auction at the fish market. Cars are not allowed, but there is parking in front of the entrance, next to the marina.

The harbor also incorporates the marina, which
provides safe haven for small and medium-sized boats and yachts. It is newly built and has 97 berths and a dock length of 4 to 8 meters. It is managed by the Conil Yacht Club, and you can visit its restaurant, which I did for a carajillo.Read more
