Port Olímpic, Marina in La Vila Olímpica del Poblenou, Barcelona, Spain.
Port Olímpic is a modern marina featuring 700 yacht berths along Barcelona's waterfront, positioned between Somorrostro and Nova Icària beaches with views of the Hotel Arts and Torre Mapfre.
The marina opened in 1991 after construction in 1990 to serve as the sailing venue for the 1992 Summer Olympic Games, transforming Barcelona's coastline through major urban redevelopment efforts.
Port Olímpic has evolved into a social hub with restaurants, bars, and nightlife establishments, hosting regattas and maritime festivals while serving as a base for the 2024 America's Cup preparations.
The marina is located at Moll de Xaloc with postal code 08005, accessible by public transit and offering water sports rentals, dining options, and facilities for both private yacht owners and visitors.
Port Olímpic is undergoing transformation into a blue economy hub focused on marine innovation and sustainability, including plans for a marine bio-regeneration reef developed in partnership with Barcelona Zoo.
