Habla usted Ingles?

If the answer is no...best to move on. That is our recommendation after our experience in Puerto De Motril. John, using his best High School Spanish, called on our way to the marina to see if there was "room at the inn". No habla usted ingles. So we go anyway. There are no dock spaces open, they do not understand us on the radio and there are no more marinas within the next few hours. John tries to get me to jump onto the dock while he does a "pass-by" with the boat. Thank God a marina employee finally waved us down and literally "squeezed" us in. Then we had to try and register without understanding what each other wanted. Again, using our best Spanish, we filled out the forms but had to have them re-done as what we put in the "box" was the wrong information. This is not a good marina if you are looking to re-provision as the facilities are pretty far away and the actual town of Motril is over 3 miles from the marina as we found out the hard way. We walked to town,found the bus station and picked up the schedule to Granada. The restaurants we saw all had the Jambone's hanging inside or in the windows. They had some very artistic graffiti artists so I had to take photos. The next day we were rockin' and rollin' with the swell. We had made reservations to go to Granada and see Alhambra so we decided to get more fenders to protect the boat. We secured the boat and headed on.
