Hermeneutica Mar 24, 2004:
It needn't be anywhere as big as a marina, it could just be access to the water with berths for working boats [e.g. ski boats] and a launching ramp and a bit of beach for windsurfers and dinghies to take off. Can you give more context?
Fun thing!

I would think a tourist brochure would not be highlighting a ramp as a \"puerto deportivo\", a working port is \"puerto\" In Spain many places have both a port and a marina.
