La Lonja Marina Chárter will manage the rental moorings on the seafront promenade of the port of Palma

The Board of Directors of the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) met yesterday and agreed to select the proposal submitted by La Lonja Marina Chárter as the most advantageous bid in the public tender for the management and operation of moorings for rental boats on the seafront promenade of the port of Palma, under an administrative concession.

The concession will last for 16 years and involves a committed investment of over €4.5 million.

It covers a total area of 17,915 square metres of public port land, of which 17,100 square metres correspond to water surface area, and includes mooring berths and a fuel supply facility for rental boats.

La Lonja Marina Chárter's bid was particularly highly rated for the environmental improvements it incorporates, in line with the APB's commitment to sustainability and protection of the port environment.

The actions planned to boost marine biodiversity include installing mooring systems that help regenerate the seabed and using Econcrete technology, designed to encourage marine life to grow on port infrastructure.

Water management measures include a custom-built drinking water production system, rainwater reuse for cleaning and flushing, and the installation of consumption control systems to detect potential leaks and improve efficiency. Smart planters are also planned, which significantly reduce water consumption.

To reduce energy consumption, La Lonja Marina Chárter plans to install solar panels, which will generate some of the electricity needed for its operations. In addition, the project includes an electric charging infrastructure with several points for electric boats, as well as a charging point for electric bicycles and scooters, promoting more sustainable mobility in the port area.

This announcement marks a step forward for the APB in its goal of improving port services and promoting a more efficient and environmentally friendly management model in the port of Palma.

Call for tenders announced to manage the former Marítimo bar in Plaza Santo Domingo de la Calzada

The Board of Directors of the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) agreed at its last meeting yesterday to launch a public tender to operate a bar-café-restaurant located in Plaza Santo Domingo de la Calzada, within the port of Palma.

The establishment, formerly known as Bar Marítimo, is situated in the Santo Domingo gardens, part of the heritage area of Palma's port and at the foot of the Es Jonquet neighbourhood, which has been declared a Site of Cultural Interest. The concession includes an outdoor terrace on the first floor of the building, as well as an open-air terrace in front of the main façade, which enhances its appeal and functionality.

This is an iconic location in the port, with high foot traffic and a strategic position that favours its connection with both port users and residents and visitors to the city. Once in service, it will strengthen the port's service offering and boost the social and economic vitality of this area, in line with the APB's strategy of promoting port-city integration.

It will have a maximum duration of 12 years and covers the operation of facilities intended for use as a bar, café and restaurant, as well as the possibility of offering complementary services related to hospitality and catering.

This initiative is part of the APB's ongoing efforts to improve the quality of port services, promote the integration of the port with the city and create new spaces that boost economic and tourist activity in the port area.

The Port Authorities of the Balearic Islands and A Coruña exchange experience and knowledge in preparation for their port-city transformation and integration processes

The president of the Balearic Islands Port Authority (APB), together with the general manager, Toni Ginard, visited the port of A Coruña today so that both organisations could exchange experiences and knowledge regarding the processes they have underway in terms of port-city integration.

Both ports are at a key stage to achieve a transformation of port spaces that will result in an improvement of port infrastructure and its relationship with their respective cities.

In both cases, this involves an extensive remodelling of the waterfront, which envisions the creation of new opportunities for port development and the provision of open spaces for citizens. Innovation, sustainability, the enhancement of industrial heritage, and broad social participation throughout the process are aspects that the approaches of the two port authorities have in common.

Both the APB and the A Coruña Port Authority (within the framework of the Coruña Marítime Commission) have put out to tender the drafting of a Master Plan that will define the main lines of the projects to be executed in the coming years, after consultation processes with the public in which strategic agreements were established in consensus with the social and economic stakeholders.

The directors of both ports held a meeting this morning at the headquarters of the A Coruña Port Authority, where they shared the most important aspects of their projects, with the aim of enriching their know-how. Next, they visited the docks and areas of the inner port of A Coruña.

Participating in the visit on behalf of the APB were the president, Javier Sanz; the general manager, Antonio Ginard; the head of the Department of Corporate Governance, Communication and CSR, Laura Molano; and the head of the Department of Planning and Strategy, Jorge Nasarre.

Representing A Coruña at the event were the President of the Port Authority, Martín Fernández Prado; the General Manager, Juan Diego Pérez; the Head of the Port Planning Department, Enrique Maciñeira; and the Head of the Institutional Relations and Communication Division, Ramón Castro.
