Spanish term

atraque, hoyo

Spanish to English Bus/Financial
Dear colleagues, sorry for such primitive questions, my native language is Russian.De hecho, tenemos algunos estudios avanzados para el desarrollo de un resort integrado en Cayo Coco, para la construcción de un hotel y bungalows de categoría 5 estrellas, un campo de golf de 36 hoyos y una marina con hasta 400 atraques.

berth(s)/hole(s)

Hi SalmoN!
In the case of golf, it's most definitely "hole(s)". In the case of "atraques" in a marina, I sincerely believe the correct term is "berth(s)".

See:
http://www.well.com/user/pk/waterfront/BerthRates/

These are the current Berkeley Marina **Berth** rates, approved by the City Council on June 12 2001.

Hope this helps:-)

"hoyos" means holes and "atraques" does mean berths but...

what would sound better here would be -
a marina with room for up to 400 boats

mooring posts/bays

this sounds the most correct to me. Suerte!

berths and holes

An atraque is the dock where ships berth. Good luck.
