With a population of approximately 2000, this port is indeed a private paradise. The port is shaped like a pointing finger and juts into the Balearic Sea off the synonymous Andratx shore. It faces the protected Tramuntana mountain range, which is a UNESCO Heritage Site and the ancient historic town of Andratx is about 5km away on the south side of the port. The port is flanked by Torrent des Salvel at the northern border, Avinguda de Gabriel Roca Garcias in the west, Carrer Saulet to the east and Carrer D’Isaac Peral in the south. Due to its geographical location and client demand, Port Andratx has a thriving fishing industry.
