Motril Looks to the Sea: La Marina Sports Marina Approved in Playa Granada

Motril is moving firmly towards the future following the approval of the La Marina sports marina project, a key development that will transform Playa Granada and strengthen the appeal of the Tropical Coast as a tourist, nautical, and residential destination.

The General Assembly of the Playa Granada Compensation Board has given the green light to this long-awaited initiative, unlocking one of the most important urban development projects in recent years for the city.

🏙️ A project that defines a new city model

The approval of La Marina marks a before and after for Playa Granada. It is a project designed to grow in an orderly, sustainable and realistic way, aligned with the coastal model promoted by the Motril City Council.

The council highlights that this step brings:

• ✅ Urban and legal certainty

• 📈 Attraction of private investment

• 👷‍♀️ Creation of local employment

• 🌱 Environmentally respectful development

All of this makes Playa Granada a strategic area for the future of Motril and the entire Tropical Coast.

⚓ An indoor marina designed to enjoy all year round

The heart of the project will be a modern indoor marina, resized to ensure viability, with around 400 to 500 berths. This space will make Motril a benchmark for nautical tourism in eastern Andalusia.

The marina will be integrated into a vibrant and attractive urban environment that will include:

• 🏨 Quality hotels, oriented towards sustainable and year-round tourism.

• 🍽️ Commercial and dining areas, alongside the promenade.

• ⚽ Sports and leisure spaces, for residents and visitors.

• 🏡 Housing and affordable homes, facilitating access to housing and population settlement.

A design meant to be enjoyed 12 months a year, beyond the summer season.

🤝 Agreement and consensus: the key to moving forward

One of the most notable aspects of the La Marina project is the broad consensus reached among the landowners, grouped in the Compensation Board.

After years of technical and economic studies, an adjusted version of the original plan has been chosen, maintaining the essence of the indoor marina but with a more realistic and sustainable approach.

This agreement allows progress without blockages and with guarantees, something fundamental for a development of this magnitude in Playa Granada and Motril.

🗺️ What comes next?

With approval now on the table, the project enters a new phase:

• 📐 Drafting of the final technical projects.

• 🏛️ Processing before the competent authorities.

• 💼 Capture and consolidation of private investment.

If administrative deadlines are met, La Marina will begin to become a reality in the coming years.
