Cobb's Quay Marina

(5 votes, average 3.60 out of 5)

Cobbs Quay Marina

With its lively, seafaring atmosphere, this 1090 berth marina is a favourite with yachtsmen and motor cruisers alike. It is situated at Hamworthy in Holes Bay within Poole Harbour, the world's second largest natural harbour. Much of the shoreline is undeveloped and there are many inlets and small islands to explore by boat.

Brownsea Island, the largest of the islands in the harbour, is owned by the National Trust and its woodland area is home to all sorts of wildlife. Out of the harbour to the east lies the Solent, offering year-round racing and sheltered cruising around the Isle of Wight.

To the west is Studland Bay and Swanage, with its popular beach and white cliffs. Travelling further west, there are extensive opportunities for cruising in the unspoilt waters of Torbay and the West Country.

The marina has first-class facilities including a chandlery and convenience store located on site. There is a superb toilet and shower building with background music and a state-of-the-art, movement-sensitive lighting system. The building also includes a reception lobby with vending machines, purpose-designed disabled facilities and a laundrette.

Cobb's Quay Marina also offers a convenient 240 berth dry stack system for motorboats up to 10 metres. Offering increased security and lower maintenance costs, the service includes unlimited launching on demand seven days a week.

Boatyard Facilities

As well as providing first-class berthing and marina services, Cobb’s Quay Marina has a boatyard within it, ideal for all types of craft, and perfect for when you need to carry out maintenance work or repairs. There is a large, fully concreted storage area for over 400 boats, including undercover storage. There is a slipway, accessible at all states of tide, a 25 ton slipway hoist and car and trailer space. There are also numerous marine trades on site as well as a 10 ton crane.

For your convenience, petrol, diesel and LPG are all available, enabling you to make the most of your cruising rather than making special trips for fuel.
