New Tax On Vessels Visiting Spain (Andalusia)

[nortada]

May be nothing in it but have just been advised that vessels visiting Spain will be charged a new tax at their point of entry (irrespective of their length of stay)?

 

[PlanB]

can you say where this information can be found?

Regret it was hearsay in a bar so source was rather iffy.

Hoped somebody closer to the coal face may have some gen.

I heard that all yachts visiting Spain (irrespective of their length of stay) will be issued with a free Flamenco dancer.

This has been happening for a while now, we were issued with flamenco dancers at every harbour last year; they quickly filled the forepeak and we were compelled to lash them to the rails. Their length of stay was curtailed when we reached Gibraltar and exchanged them for Earl Grey tea in Morrissons. How are things in Moana J&A?

Crazy, have they no sense, everyone knows a Flamenco dancer is no good whatsoever for anchoring, what you really need is a Paso doble dancer

Is this on top of the "Med Congestion Charge" payable at Gib ?

We kept pretty close to shore leaving Gib. so probably didn't sail through the toll gate. No congestion charge and no flamenco dancer either so did seem to be a good ploy.

Hey Guys love the humour but is there any chance we can get back to the Thread?

So far, this year, I have visited (some multiple times) Alcaidesa La Linea, Ceuta, Sotogrande, La Duqesa, Estepona and La Bajadilla.

All charges normal off season except for the big price rise at La B. Nothing about any tax even entering from outside Schengen (Gib) to Spain.

Happy cruising!!

It is called rumor making.

Couldn't agree more but I would call it mischief making and would so like to have it quashed before we start our annual pilgrimage east.

More like scaremongering.

No sign of this new tax here in Spain/Gib and I cannot imagine it happening - tourism is too important an industry.

Belly dancers provide good holding in Morocco (I am told!)
