MARINA IN THE AREA OF ARRAJAINAL

PREVIOUS PROJECT

Malaga, 1997-2002

• Photomontage of the marina with an aerial

picture.

• Photograph of the model.

The Arraijanal Marina implies the

construction of a large complex of

residential developments, sports and

commerce buildings and hospitality

constructions in a coastal parcel of

approximately 50 Ha, close to Malaga

airport. The complex includes 1,500

homes and 200 commercial premises

associated to what will be the biggest

sport harbor of Costa del Sol, with

almost 1000 berths.

The whole complex represents a global

investment of 120.2 million euros, out of

which 24 are direct for the docks work,

the accesses creation and building

constructions, which constitute the

Esteyco designs for the project.

Some of the more complicated areas for

the design are the diversions and the

connections with the national road, due

to the proximity of the Guadalhorce

estuary, as the Marina’s groin could be a

barrier for the sediment (carried by the

river) distribution, in such a manner that

the adjacent beaches would suffer a

regression.
