The end of the year was very positive for Lamaignere Shipping in terms of luxury yachts consignment. In this post, we share several photos of the Yacht “De-De” that visited various parts of Andalusia during the last week of December of 2021 and the beginning of the new year. The itinerary carried out by this elegant yacht was as follows:

From December 22 to December 25 in Puerto Banús.

From December 25 to December 27 in Gibraltar.

From December 28 to January 3 in Seville.

Stop in Gibraltar during the morning of January 4.

From the afternoon of January 4 to the morning of January 10, in Puerto Banús again.

All the work was carried out satisfactorily by Lamaignere Shipping. We are proud to position ourselves as a reference agent in yacht services within the Andalusia market.

Lamaignere Shipping initiated collaboration with the port of Seville to increase the visits of mega yachts and cruises at the port by the reinitiation of the Belle de Cadix trips and welcoming the arrival of the Kaos megayacht.

The first week of September is beginning with great news for the cruise ship traffic in Andalusia. For starters, last Saturday September 4, the ‘Belle de Cadix‘ of the Croisierupe company, which is based in the Port of Seville, made its first stopover in Seville and which will later make stops in the Ports of Huelva and Cádiz before returning to Seville again on Tuesday, September 7.  Also, next Wednesday September 8, we will be receiving at the Seville port the megayacht ‘Kaos’, a luxury boat of 110 meters in length, valued at almost 300 million euros.

At Lamaignere Shipping we believe that these activities will serve as a great boosters for the high-end cruise and megayacht sector in Andalusia and will gradually help us reach pre-pandemic levels.

We also would like to thank the Diario de Huelva for mentioning Lamaignere Shipping as the consignees with regards to this news, and the Port of Huelva for their enthusiasm and collaboration on this project.

We have some great news to share, for this week of August 23^rd. Lamaignere Shipping received in Cadiz, one of the two famous megayachts operating under the name “Sea Dream Yacht Club”. The Sea Dream megayachts provide exclusive services and are well-known within the yacht and nautical world.

The Sea Dream Luxury Yachts provide yacht charter experiences in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and other areas in the world.  We are fortunate to have the opportunity to coordinate some of the vessels port and crew services while this megayacht is docked in Cadiz.

Andalusia is the largest region of Spain and it is located in the south of the country. Therefore, when we talk about the weather conditions in Andalusia we are referring to a region that has a predominantly Mediterranean climate. However because of its great extensiveness, it’s temperatures and conditions will vary depending on the area, altitude and latitude. Regardless, the Mediterranean climate has, by definition, many hours of sunshine, warm temperatures in the summer and mild weather in the winter.

Why are the weather conditions at the Andalusian coast ideal for yachting?

The Andalusian coast, from Huelva to Tarifa, in Cadiz, feature an Oceanic Mediterranean climate and from Tarifa to the western-most edge of Almeria, which include both the coasts of Malaga and Granada, a Tropical Mediterranean climate. Both of these weather climates boast temperatures that are conducive to yachting and yacht tourism, year-round. In fact, the average temperature, for both Malaga and the costa del Sol is approximately 18 degrees Celsius making it ideal for tourism in any season.

In Andalusia, it is likely for people to talk about Puerto Sherry. Why? Simple! Puerto Sherry is as an ideal zone for yachts and entertainment services, as well as it is an exclusive zone with hotels and apartments. It also sits in a strategic position for visiting Gibraltar. And its perfect location, relative to Cadiz, natural areas, and beautiful landscapes, is attracting, an increasing number of nautical tourists, each year, especially during the summer.

Furthermore, Puerto Sherry has a wide range of services for visitors. For this reason, many nautical championships are being organized here throughout the year: including the Super Series Royal Cup, the World Sailing Championship, etc.

Where is Puerto Sherry located?

Puerto Sherry is situated in Puerto de Santa Maria; a small village close to Cadiz. It has a fantastic climate, with more than 300 days of sun and an average temperatures of about 20 degree Celsius, year round.

For more information about Puerto Sherry, you can visit this website.

The costa de la luz is one of the most beautiful and attractive areas for visitors, both locals and foreigners, who want to spend time in the Southern coasts of Spain.  It extends from the mouth of the Guadalquivir river to Tarifa. It looks onto the Atlantic Ocean and has a rich history dating back from the 12 Century B.C.

The area offers a wide range of services for tourists   including entertainment, golfing, marinas, sports programs, etc… thus alluring many tourists, especially in summer, want to spend a few days in the provinces of Huelva and Cádiz.

Here we share the names of some of the main towns that are of interest for tourists and visitors, and are ideal for coordinating routes and activities if you come with your yacht.

In Huelva: Isla Canela, Islantilla, Cartaya, El Rompido, El Portil, Punta Umbría, Mazagón and Huelva.

In Cádiz: El Puerto de Santa María, Cádiz, Chiclana de la Frontera, Conil de la Frontera, Barbate, Vejer de la Frontera and Tarifa.

Many of the beaches in this area have dunes, fine sand and crystal clear water that give this area an incredible landscape. In addition, this area has natural area; the most important of which is the Doñana National Park. In fact, it is the most important Biological Reserve in Spain.

Lamaignere Shipping coordinates numerous yachts services in Andalusia allowing customers to plan more than one stop in the various ports including Puerto Sherry, Huelva or Cádiz.

The “Costa del Sol“ is one of the most popular tourist destination in Spain. Approximately 35% of all tourists to this country choose to visit the Costa del Sol coastal area. But how did this area get its name?

The concept of Costa del Sol was coined by Rodolfo Lussning in 1928, owner of a hotel in Almeria, as a part of a promotional campaign presented in the newspaper ¨La Cronica Meridional¨. The goal of the campaign was to attract new foreign tourists to the 1929 expositions in Seville and Barcelona. The name was not adopted, as a mainstream concept and/or used in the different communication media, until 1947.

Where is Costa del Sol located?

Today, the Costa del Sol zone stretches along 185km of the coast of Malaga starting at the municipality of La Linea de la Conception all the way to Nerja; although sometimes some municipalities of the coast of Granada up until Motril may also be included.

Costa del Golf

Another coined name for the Costa del Sol is Costa del Golf. This name was given to this area owing to the high number of golf courses found in the region. In fact, Andalusia takes first place, in all of Spain and Europe, for the number of golf courses it has. Therefore it is a fantastic zone and an ideal place to do this sport if you decide to visit Andalusia by yacht.
