Marina Smir - General Info

Select your download option below


Description:

This marina development on the north African coast is just 25 miles from Gibraltar, just south of Ceuta on Morocco’s Mediterranean coast. Facilities are reported to be adequate, secure and staff friendly at the marina. This is the only marina in Morocco close to Tetouan and Chefchaouen (the blue city), without having to undertake a long drive. .

Note:

Marina Smir is pretty westernised and cruisers report that the normal Moroccan strictures about bare arms for women and shorts for men don’t seem to apply here. If in doubt dress cautiously first and then see what others are doing.

Position:

35° 45.0’N, 05° 20.35’W (harbour entrance)

    Arrived in the evening and were able to check in right away. Had to do a bit more papewrwork in the morning but process was pretty smooth. They let us stay on the reception dock the whole time which was convenient. Had access to electricity and water plus the marina office was right next door with a big mostly empty building and terrace nice for sitting and doing computer work. Huge marina and mostly empty by the way, narrow buoyed entrance as mentioned. Keep to starboard against seawall when entering. Great place to leave boat and venture inland.

    Sitting in Smir on the fuel dock waiting for the customs who won’t clear you until 10.00 local time. So much for an early start. Smir is expensive to moor. They have put up their prices for 2017. The alongside mooring was very noisy with loud music at night. The café’s are three times more expensive than in the city. Wifi is only available in the office, unless you have an expensive cup of coffee in a café and get a code for their wifi. Marina staff are friendly and helpful. The complex and surroundings are ultra tat. It is after all a holiday complex. I certainly wouldn’t go again. M’diq looked more interesting.
    Oh, and they had no diesel. If you do decide to go, Tetouan is worth a visit. We flagged down a blue and white car which is a public taxi. You cram in with the locals and pay 10 dirham to the city. At 12.5 to the pound thats cheap travel.
    The entry to the port has plenty of water if you keep the red buoys to port as per norm

    Calling the marina for renewing the 18-months VAT count soon.
    Does one need a local agent for above plus fuel top-up or it is straightforward procedure and safe to do by myself?
