All aboard at Haslar Marina
5th October 2024Whether you’re a seasoned boat owner or have yet to dip a toe in the water, Haslar Marina, just over Haslar Bridge, is a one-stop-shop for boating enthusiasts, water lovers and newbies alike. For those already with a boat you choose to keep close to home, there’s berthing and boatcare on-site, as well as access to great benefits, including 300 free visitor nights across boatfolk’s other 10 marinas across the UK, which include East Cowes, Weymouth and Bangor.
But if you are looking to take up a new passion by making boating a part of your lifestyle, and need some help charting your way, Haslar Marina can help. “Our boat brokerage, boatpoint, can assist you in finding your dream boat, whether you’re after power or sail, brand new or used,” explains Zoe Harrison, Customer Experience Officer at Haslar Marina. “On-site training providers can help you get your skills up to scratch, whether you’re a first-timer, or just a bit out of practice. And, if you love the idea of boat ownership without the hassle, or want to give it a go before you commit, Beyonder, boatfolk’s boat subscription business, offers unlimited spontaneous access to their fleet.”
There’s something for landlubbers, too, who are always assured a warm welcome should they prefer to enjoy the water from dry land. Haslar Marina’s two restaurants, The Creek and the iconic Lightship, the first restaurant aboard a boat in the Solent, are the perfect excuse for a leisurely waterfront stroll down from Royal Haslar for a drink or bite to eat, offering everything from a cappuccino to a Sunday roast, romantic dinner for two or big family birthday celebrations.
There are also plenty of events happening throughout the year at Haslar Marina (visit boatfolk.co.uk for more information). While there’s a one-bedroom guest suite available at Royal Haslar, extra guests can stay in one of the marina’s luxurious hotel rooms.
“We are very much looking forward to welcoming you all to Haslar Marina,” Zoe says.
