The arrival of spring this week tells us of the celebration of the first nautical hall of the year. The X edition of the Nautical Hall of Denia will take place from April 28 to May 1. To date, the main nautical companies have already confirmed that they will participate in this competition that takes place in the incomparable of the Marina Sports and Tourism Port of Denia. "This year we have chosen a motto," I'm heading for success, "as ten years ago, when we launched the first edition, we set a course and, of course, we were trying to make it a success. Today we can already say that we have exceeded our expectations," says Gabriel Martínez, director of the Denia Boat Show.

Since the opening of the registration deadline, many of the companies that have shown up in the last edition have already confirmed their participation and new companies have joined together. "This is a sector that has more than demonstrated its ability to stay afloat even in the worst moments," says Martínez. As was said at the recent 5th Nautical Congress in Palma, the nautical sector has a great capacity to generate employment and productivity, especially because of its direct relationship with sectors as important at this time as tourism and because nautical is promoting a diversification of business with the creation of new companies, many linked to the technological field.

Some of the companies that have already confirmed their presence at the Denia Boat Show are Princess, Swans Marine, Yachtsman Nautical Insurance, Nautical Aza, Marina Sport, etc. The Denia competition has been able to adapt to the needs of the current nautical and has been consolidated as one of the most important samples of Spain.

To facilitate participation in this important sample, all exhibitors are made available the moorings they need, at zero cost, as well as the spaces for the exposure of dry boats and the assembly of the stands. Among the objectives of the event is to show the possibilities of nautical tourism as an important source of wealth and employment. In addition to energizing the sector, give a push to the data of purchase, sale and rental of ships. With this new edition, it continues its consolidation towards the living room of the nautical experiences, unique and complementary to the traditional living rooms. A challenge that will benefit both exhibitors and fans, athletes and sea supporters. Nautical, gastronomy, good climate, leisure and excellent infrastructure are the best support for this living room, which will bring together the main national and international companies to offer interesting business opportunities to the public.

The Denia Boat Show is supported by La Sella Golf Resort, the City of Denia and the Marine World.
