"Port Corbières" near Marseille is perfect for that,

you can work yourself or with your own subcontractors,
its close to Marseille airport
they are not too expensive,

Not really close to the costa del sol though is it :encouragement:

Sant Carles will let you work on and stay on your boat in the yard.
Costa Dorada rather than del sol but closer than France

The "Free Port" in Algecieras is best. free to work, tax free goods and local workers who are good and cheap if you need them.

You could visit nearest Marine station closer to you. Germin would help.

Alcaidesa marina in La Linea allow you work on your own boat or you have La Duquesa or Fuengirola marina too. If you are bringing an outside mechanic they will have to prove they have insurance to work in the yards, a European cover for PI. And sometimes the yards charge to have a external company come it, for example I think Fuengirola charge €4/hr for an external person to be in there! Unless you know the staff!!! As we do!!!!
Any questions just ask!
