The Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) has launched an adaptation and improvement plan regarding anchorage for the direct management berths in several areas of Portitxol, San Magín and Ca’n Barbarà at the Port of Palma.


With an investment of 351,711 euros and a four-month execution period, the works will provide berth users with a renovated and up-to-date infrastructure for their boats.

In the Portitxol area, prior to starting the works, the floor area was cleaned in order to guarantee suitable progress of the works.


The works, which will be entirely undertaken on the docks and dock pontoons of direct management of the APB at the Port of Palma, will comprise the adaptation of mooring elements: changing dee shackles in bad condition, improving anchorages, and the changing of chains and guide ropes, etc.

Owners may see their boats provisionally relocated to another berth indicated by the APB during the period planned for each improvement. The works are to be completed within four months and will give direct jobs to eight people.
