The port contains 264 dedicated moorings for recreational vessels alongside dedicated space for the traditional fishing fleet.
It is home to the Reial Club Nàutic de Calp, one of the most prominent sailing institutions on the Costa Blanca.
The daily fish auction at the port's Llotja de Calp is a traditional event where visitors can observe the unloading of local catch.
The port is located at the exact junction between the northern and southern coastlines of the Calp municipality.
The harbor area is built on reclaimed land that physically links the base of the Penyal d'Ifach to the mainland.
Port Calp functions as the primary commercial and recreational harbor for the town of Calp, situated directly at the foot of the Penyal d'Ifach Natural Park. The port hosts an active fishing fleet that conducts a daily auction, a core component of the local economy. Beyond industrial maritime activity, the site features extensive berthing capacity for private yachts and small watercraft. The surrounding harbor area provides direct access to the sea-facing pedestrian paths connecting to local coastal coves. It serves as a major node for nautical tourism, offering scuba diving and sailing excursions. The infrastructure is managed by the Generalitat Valenciana, ensuring consistent maintenance of the maritime facilities. The port area also facilitates the departure of tourist catamarans circling the adjacent massive limestone rock formation.
The eastern breakwater walk provides the most dramatic angle for photographing the fishing boats with the Penyal d'Ifach peak as a backdrop.
Visit during the late afternoon to observe the arrival of fishing boats and the subsequent unloading of the daily catch.
Walk along the breakwater wall for unobstructed views of the Penyal d'Ifach and the Mediterranean horizon.
Make dinner reservations at the restaurants overlooking the piers if you want to eat fresh local seafood caught that day.
Do not wander into restricted industrial zones clearly marked for port employees only.
Avoid obstructing active working areas of the port or fishing equipment; follow signs designating restricted zones for unauthorized personnel.
