Cowes Yacht Haven
Cowes Yacht Haven sits right at the heart of Cowes' legendary sailing scene, with 260 fully serviced berths, a 50-ton hoist, and all the infrastructure you'd expect from a world-class marina. Together with nearby Shepards Wharf, it handles around 30,000 boat visits a year — so you're in good company. The town of Cowes itself is steps away, with its buzzing waterfront pubs, chandleries, and the Royal Yacht Squadron, making this far more than just a place to tie up.
