ABP Marinas

Taking advantage of its prime locations in popular sailing grounds, ABP boasts four outstanding, modern marinas at its Ports of Ipswich, Lowestoft, Fleetwood and Southampton.

Ipswich Haven Marina

Opened in 2000, Ipswich Haven Marina is the award-winning 270-berth facility situated in the Wet Dock at the Port of Ipswich. Standing at the head of the River Orwell, the five Gold Anchor-rated marina is equipped with a host of facilities, including washing and laundry facilities, as well as a chandlery, boatyard services and a fuel supplier.

The River Orwell is lined by beautiful, scenic countryside and was voted by the Royal Yachting Association as one of the most picturesque rivers in the country. The cruising area includes the rivers Deben, Blackwater, Crouch and Thames, making Ipswich Haven Marina the ideal base for cruises to destinations such as Lowestoft, Great Yarmouth, Woodbridge and London. The River Orwell is also onlya short sail away from mainland Europe, and attracts many sailors from Holland, Belgium, Germany and France.

Southampton Town Quay Marina

Located in the Port of Southampton, the City centre and the heart of the UK's most popular cruising destination, Town Quay Marina offers 117 annual berths and boasts 24 hour, 365 days a year manned security. Fully serviced berths with water and electricity are available, together with sought after city centre parking. The marina is accessible at all states of the tide and shower and laundrette facilities are provided shore side.

This year the marina will benefit from substantial investment, improving the facilities both on the water and onshore.

A new team of marina assistants will also be in place in June and we look forward to welcoming visitors before the end of the summer season.
