The president of Portos de Galicia, Natalia Botana, held a meeting with the board of Nauta Sanxenxo to address proposals for boosting the attraction of nautical transit, boats that call at Galician marinas.

The meeting, held at the Portos de Galicia headquarters, is part of the president's series of contacts with the recreational boating sector to understand the current situation. Botana reaffirmed the public entity's commitment to promoting a coordinated strategy for improving port infrastructure.
The aim is to increase the activity of nautical recreational facilities, the business volume of their managers, as well as the auxiliary sector and the socioeconomic fabric of the fishing villages.
She also expressed Portos de Galicia's willingness to agree with marina managers on priorities for attracting new transient boats and retaining those that already call in the region.
Finally, she pointed out the need to de-seasonalize transit arrivals, leveraging the competitive advantage of the Galician estuaries, which allow for year-round navigation.
