Brighton Marina

Brighton MarinaMarina0-0.100379000036520150.81073799980408Brighton Marina is a wholly artificial structure extending approximately one mile east of Brighton. Formed by two distinct breakwater, the substantial Eastern Breakwater enclosing the marina basin and the shorter Western Breakwater protecting the entranc, it provides a high degree of shelter. Entry requires a near U-turn manoeuvre, and once inside, vessels benefit from excellent protection in most conditions.Constructed from large concrete caissons, the marina opened in 1979 and demonstrated considerable resilience during the hurricane-force winds of October 1987. First-hand accounts from berth-holders at the time confirm the integrity of the structure under extreme loading.With more than 1,200 berths, Brighton Marina is among the largest in Europe. Visitor berths are generally available, and despite a sizeable resident population, the marina rarely reaches full capacity. Its location, slightly removed from the cluster of Solent destinations, means it is less of a weekend-hop harbour, but it remains strategically valuable for coastal passages along the Channel.Significant silting occurred during the mid-2010s, affecting the entrance and some fairways. Extensive dredging in 2020 improved conditions, but prudent skippers should still inspect any offered long-term berth at Low Water Springs to confirm actual depth. Fairway depths may be as little as 0.5 m below Chart Datum, and vessels drawing more than 1 m are advised to avoid movements within two hours either side of Low Water.For vessels transiting the Channel, Brighton Marina is one of the most practical and reliable stopovers. Access is straightforward in most weather, berths are readily available, and the approach avoids the complexities of river pilotage or commercial-traffic encounters. Essential services are close at hand, including a large on-site hypermarket capable of provisioning a vessel for extended offshore passages.The marina complex is largely self-contained, offering shops, pubs, restaurants, a multiscreen cinema, and a bowling alley. Marine services include a travel lift, full boatyard facilities, rigging and repair specialists, a chandlery, fuel, and gas exchange.Brighton itself is well worth a visit for those staying longer. The Royal Pavilion, the Lanes, and extensive nightlife provide ample diversion. Although sometimes described as “London on Sea,” it retains its own distinct character.The marina offers competitive wintering packages for vessels afloat, and past experience indicates these arrangements are generally reliable. Transport links are excellent, making Brighton a convenient location for crew changes or temporary lay-ups.New Windfarm AlertFor details of the windfarm in the approaches to Brighton, see Channel East Wind Farms: 2026 Update.Images (c) Patrick RoachAdmiralty 1991, SC5605Lobster Pots inshore to East of Marina, SE Gales make entrance impossible.For vessels drawing anything over 0.5 m please avoid 1 hr either side of low-water, keep to the channel do not cut the corner on approach.HW +0004 Dover, MHWS 6.6m, MHWN 5.0m, MLWN 2.0m, MLWS 0.5m. Brighton tide-tables:For the yachtsman or motorboater the only situation in which a entry to Brighton Marina will be ill-advised is in gale force south easterly conditions..........but in any kind in strong onshore conditions, the waves bouncing off the caissons make the entrance rough and a challenge.In normal conditions from East or West there are no real problems in the approach providing a good offing is maintained. Close inshore between Newhaven and Brighton Marina are lobster fishing grounds, giving rise to plenty of pot markers. The area is best avoided particularly at night under engine.Approach from across the Channel now has that new Rampisham wind farm in the way and we have a link to the details about that in the harbour description above. The Marina is reasonably easy to identify with a batch of tall buildings on the cliffs more or less behind the entrance.The safest approach is probably from about half a mile off, with the Marina entrance bearing North to Northwest. This gives you some chance of seeing what's emerging.In strong onshore winds the entrance can get tricky, and in gales from the south-east it would be inadvisable to attempt entry at all. Newhaven may be a better bet in these circumstances. In strong south-westerly conditions the Marina can be entered, (I've had no problems in up to F7). The thing to watch out for in these conditions is the waves bouncing off the caissons... they meet an oncoming wave and heap right up. (clapoptic waves ?). The entrance will be rough.An approach with the entrance bearing NW and keeping plenty of speed on the boat seems to work. Before making your final approach in these conditions it may be wise to call up the Marina on VHF channel 37 or 80, (telephone 01273 819919) to make sure that nothing is about to emerge as you charge in. It is also worth briefing the crew, and getting everybody in lifejackets and holding on tight.Once inside the first set of breakwaters, in either good or bad conditions it will be necessary to execute a gentle U turn. The dredged channel is well marked by three green conical buoys, and three red can buoys. The entrance can shoal up after strong onshore weather, and in these cases leaving it a bit after dead low water would probably be wise. The Marina issued a NOTAM in 2016 about the entrance and this is an on-going problem. The room in this outer harbour has been further restricted by the building of a coffer dam and we are advised that is safer to favour the western (red buoyed) side of the channel thereHeads up January 2023. The marina issued a NOTAM 1/2023. 2023 THAT NOTAM IS STILL IN FORCE Marina Entrance is dredged to 1.7m below CD. Depth "estimations" within the marina indicate a depth of 0.5 metre or less below CD.VESSELS WITH DRAFT IN EXCESS OF 1 METRE ARE ADVISED TO AVOID ENTERING 2 HOURS EITHER SIDE OF LOW WATER They are expecting to dredge again this summer and now have their own dredger so the situation should slowly improve, but if you are visiting you should check with them before departure as it could affect your planned ETA. There is, in normal conditions, plenty of room for boats to pass each other in this entrance channel.Upon swinging around and entering the Marina proper you will find enough space to sort out your warps and fenders if you haven't already done so. Do not stray over towards the outer walls as there is a build up of sand there as well.Normal size yachts berth where shown on the plan, ie just inside the entrance. Larger vessels move slightly deeper into the Marina where a series of pontoons capable of holding boats up to 30 m odd awaits on your port side. In either case the best plan is to get berthing instructions from the Marina. (VHF channel 37 or 80, telephone 01273 819919). The Marina can accommodate vessels of over over 45 m depending on the draft, but all large vessels should check in with them before entering for the first time.Night entry is possible with the breakwater ends all being lit, and two of the red can buoys are also lit. The lights shown on these buoys have been reported as weak, use caution.A link is provided below to the marina's website which has plenty of useful information:https://www.premiermarinas.com/UK-Marina-locations/Brighton-MarinaAfter entering the harbour normal sized visitors berths are immediately on the port side..........and larger craft berth slightly deeper into the harbour. We have received reports that the dredging here leaves a lot to be desired and many boats lie aground at Low Water. You would be advised to consult with them before departing for here to ascertain what states of tide they can accept a boat of your draft and whether you will be afloat for the whole of your stay. If you have berthed your boat without receiving instructions from the staff you should make your way to the Marina Reception which is at the end of the West Jetty up some stairs and overlooking the entrance and visitors berths.It is here also that you pay.The costs at the Marina (2022) workout at £3.55 per metre per day for a 10m boat, the charging period running from midday to midday. There is a minimum charge of £28.40 and includes £5.00 worth of electricity. Short stays of up to 4 hours are charged at £1.48 per metre with a minimum charge of £11.84 but if you are just dropping in for fuel there is no charge.Periods of over seven days can work out cheaper, and winter rates from 1 October to the end of March can come down to as little as £00.65 p per metre per day providing you are taking more than 90 days with payment in advance.All the usual Marina facilities are available here, water and electricity (£5 worth included in the berthing fee) on the pontoons, toilets and shower blocks and launderette. For the boat there is easy access to the 24-hour fuel pontoon which sells diesel and petrol. Calor gas and camping gas exchanges are available at the marina office..The marina amenities blocks are situated on both the East and West Jetties and those on the East were refurbished this winter (2017/18)Wifi is available in the Marina but they charge £3.50 and hour, £7.50 a day or £10.00 for the weekend.For the boat there is a travel lift and hardstanding, together with all kinds of engineers, shipwrights, and repair facilities... check out the directory. The chandlers will also be found within the Marina complex.As already mentioned the Asda superstore can cater for all stocking up needs, and is virtually on the spot. It would be hard to find another harbour where serious provisioning could be accomplished so easily. This supermarket is open 24 hours a day during weekdays, 8 AM to 10 PM Saturdays, and 11 AM to 5 PM Sundays. The superstore also operates a cafe serving very good value meals and breakfasts.A cash machine will be found outside Asda.Also Brighton Marina Yacht Club welomes visitors, check their website:http://www.bmyc.org.uk/Although about a mile away, Brighton station offers a direct service to London Victoria normally in about one hour. The rail network also links with other South coast towns. Gatwick and Luton airports connect easily with Brighton.

More upmarket Italian and fish restaurants can be found.The Pubs virtually all serve food too. Rest assured if you arrive on the boat it is unlikely you will need to leave the Marina complex at all.A multiscreen cinema, a fitness centre and a 24 lane bowling alley complete the entertainment picture, and the shopaholic won't be suffering withdrawal symptoms either as fancy boutiques abound.A couple of links are provided below that relate directly to the Marina complex:PubsBrighton pubs and bars; pubs in Brighton # beerintheevening.comRestaurantshttp://restaurantsbrighton.co.uk/ It's way beyond the scope of these articles to delve into the tourist attractions of the town, but bearing in mind Brighton is home to over 400,000 people there is plenty going on. A link is included below for further investigation:http://www.visitbrighton.com/site/things-to-doBrighton is a city on the south coast of England and, with its neighbour Hove, forms the City of Brighton and Hove.The ancient settlement of Brighthelmston dates from before the Domesday Book (1086), but it emerged as a health resort during the 18th Century and became a destination for day-trippers after the arrival of the railway in 1841. Brighton experienced rapid population growth reaching a peak of over 160,000 by 1961.[2] Modern Brighton forms part of a conurbation stretching along the coast, with a population of around 480,000.Eight million tourists a year visit Brighton. The town also has a substantial business conference industry. Brighton has two universities and a medical school.ContentsHistory of BrightonIn the Domesday Book, Brighton was called Bristelmestune and a rent of 4,000 herring was established. In June 1514 Brighthelmstone was burnt to the ground by French raiders during a war between England and France. Only part of the St Nicholas Church and the street pattern of the area now known as "The Lanes" survived. The first drawing of Brighthelmstone was made in 1545 and depicts what is believed to be the raid of 1514. During the 1740s and 1750s, Dr Richard Russell of Lewes began prescribing seawater at Brighton. By 1780, development of the Georgian terraces had started and the fishing village became the fashionable resort of Brighton. Growth of the town was further encouraged by the patronage of the Prince Regent (later King George IV) after his first visit in 1783. He spent much of his leisure time in the town and constructed the Royal Pavilion during the early part of his Regency.The arrival of the railway in 1841 brought Brighton within the reach of day-trippers from London and population growth from around 7,000 in 1801 to over 120,000 by 1901. The Victorian era saw the building of many major attractions including the Grand Hotel (1864), the West Pier (1866) and the Palace Pier (1899).After boundary changes between 1873 and 1952, the land area of Brighton increased from 1,640 acres (7 km²) in 1854 to 14,347 acres (58 km²) in 1952. New housing estates were established in the acquired areas including Moulsecoomb, Bevendean, Coldean and Whitehawk. The major expansion of 1928 also incorporated the villages of Patcham, Ovingdean and Rottingdean, and much council housing was built in parts of Woodingdean after the Second World War.More recently, gentrification of much of Brighton has seen a return of the fashionable image which characterised the growth of the Regency period. Recent housing in the North Laine, for instance, has been designed in keeping with the area.In 1997 Brighton and Hove were joined to form the unitary authority of Brighton and Hove, which was granted city status by Queen Elizabeth II as part of the millennium celebrations in 2000.LandmarksThe Royal Pavilion is a former royal palace built as a home for the Prince Regent during the early 1800s and is notable for Indian architecture and Oriental interior design. The building and grounds were purchased by the town in 1849 for £53,000.Brighton Pier (originally and in full "The Brighton Marine Palace and Pier", and for long known as the Palace Pier) opened in 1899. It features a funfair, restaurants and arcade halls. The funfair has been criticised for its prices, with rides costing up to £8. Brightonians refer to it as Palace Pier in protest at the commercialisation.The West Pier was built in 1866 and has been closed since 1975 awaiting renovation, which faces continual setbacks, in part because the owners of the Palace Pier, the Noble Organisation, have opposed plans. The West Pier is one of only two Grade I listed piers in the United Kingdom, but suffered two fires in 2003. Plans for a new landmark in its place – the i360, a 183m (600 ft) observation tower designed by London Eye architects Marks Barfield – were announced in June 2006. Plans were approved by the council on 11 October 2006. As of early 2009, construction had yet to begin.Created in 1883, Volk's Electric Railway runs along the inland edge of the beach from Brighton Pier to Black Rock. It is the world's oldest operating electric railway.BeachesThe seafront has bars, restaurants, nightclubs and amusement arcades, principally between the piers. Being less than an hour from London by train has made the city a popular destination. Brighton beach has a nudist area (south of the easterly part of Kemptown). Brighton's beach, which is a sand-free shingle beach, has been awarded a blue flag. The Monarch's Way long-distance footpath heads west along the seafront above the beach.Since the 1978 demolition of the open-air lido at Black Rock, the most easterly part of Brighton's seafront, the area has been developed and now features one of Europe's largest marinas. However, the site of the pool itself remains empty except for a skate park and graffiti wall, and further development is planned including a high-rise hotel which has aroused debate, mirroring proposals for the King Alfred leisure centre in Hove. In addition, part of the eastern side of the beach has been redeveloped into a sports complex, which has courts for anything from beach volleyball to ultimate Frisbee, and opened to the public in March 2007.Night-life and popular musicThere are 400 pubs and many nightclubs. There are also live music venues including the Concorde 2, Brighton Centre and the Brighton Dome, where ABBA received a substantial boost to their career upon winning the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest.One of the most prominent musical events has been the irregularly-recurring "Big Beach Boutique", for which a substantial portion of the beach is controversially closed off for a concert by Fatboy Slim.FestivalsEach May the city hosts Brighton Festival, the largest arts festival in the UK after Edinburgh's. This includes processions such as the Children's Parade, outdoor spectaculars often involving pyrotechnics, and theatre, music and visual arts in venues throughout the city, some brought into this use exclusively for the festival. The earliest feature of the festival, the Artists' Open Houses, are homes of artists and craftspeople opened to the public as galleries, and usually selling the work of the occupants. Since 2002, these have been organized independently of the official Festival and Fringe.Brighton Festival Fringe runs alongside Brighton Festival, and has grown to be the second largest fringe festival in the world.. Together with the street performers from Brighton Festival's "Streets of Brighton" events, and the Royal Mile-esque outdoor performances that make up "Fringe City", outdoor spectacles and events more than double during May.Other festivals include The Great Escape in May, featuring three nights of bands across the city; the Soundwaves Festival in June, which shows classical music composed in the 21st Century, and involves both amateur and professional performers; Brighton Live which each September stages a week of free gigs in pubs to show local bands; and Brighton Pride (see Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, below). The Kemptown area has its own small annual street festival, the Kemptown Carnival, and the Hanover area similarly has a "Hanover Day".An inaugural White Nights (Nuit Blanche) all-night arts festival took place in October, 2008.On 1 September 2007, competitors from the United Kingdom, United States, Germany and other countries convened for the World Beard and Moustache Championship . Hosted by The Handlebar Club, categories include Dali moustache, goatee and full beard freestyle. Additionally, Brighton is permanent home to notable moustache advocate Michael "Atters" Attree.Brighton is also host to The Great Escape Festival which started in 2006. It's hosted the likes of The Kooks, Kate Nash, Still Remains, The Ting Tings and The Fratellis. It's hosted in May each year and features over 300 bands over 3 days in over 30 venues of Brighton.MuseumsBrighton museums include Brighton Museum and Art Gallery; Booth Museum of Natural History; Brighton Toy and Model Museum; and Brighton Fishing Museum, which includes artefacts from the West Pier. The Royal Pavilion is also open to the public, serving as a museum to the British Regency.Teatre and cinemaTheatres include the expanded Komedia (also used as a music venue) and the Theatre Royal which celebrated its 200th anniversary in 2007. There are also smaller theatres such as the Marlborough Theatre and Nightingale Theatre, both above pubs, which attract mostly local productions.Brighton also has a history of involvement with the film industry, and the Duke of York's Picture House has been in operation since 22 September 1910.Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communityBrighton is well-known for having a substantial LGBT community, served by shops, bars and night-clubs in addition to support organisations. It is referred to as "the gay capital of Britain", in a similar vein to San Francisco, USA and Amsterdam, Netherlands. Gay Pride carnival every August attracts thousands. It consists of a carnival parade and a party and funfair in Preston Park. There is also a "Winter Pride" in February.EconomyBrighton has a high density of businesses involved in media, particularly digital or "new media", and since the 1990s has been referred to as "Silicon Beach". According to the Boho Britain creativity index developed by United States economic regeneration expert Richard Florida, Brighton and Hove ranked sixth of 66 British new cities when measured against the three criteria of his index. Florida states the index measures the appeal of cities to the new "creative class" and is an indicator of a city's health.American Express has a former headquarters building in Edward Street. It employs around 3000, the largest private employer in the city."The Lanes" form a retail, leisure and residential area near the seafront, characterised by narrow alleyways following the street pattern of the original fishing village. The Lanes contain predominantly clothing stores, jewellers, antique shops, restaurants and pubs. The North Laine area is a retail, leisure and residential area immediately north of The Lanes. Its name derives from the Anglo-Saxon "Laine" meaning "fields". The North Laine contains a mix of businesses dominated by cafés, independent and avant-garde shops, and theatres. Churchill Square is an indoor shopping centre with a floor space of 470,000 sq ft (43,663 m²) and over 80 shops, several restaurants and 1,600 car-parking spaces. It was built in the 1960s as an open-air, multi-level pedestrianised shopping centre, but was rebuilt and enlarged in 1998 and is no longer open-air. Further retail areas include Western Road and London Road.TransportPublic transport dates back to 1840. There are several railway stations, bus services, taxis, and coach services. A Rapid Transport System is under construction and in the past it has had trolleybuses, ferries, trams and hydrofoil services.Frequent trains operate from Brighton Station. Destinations include London Victoria, London Bridge, Gatwick Airport, Portsmouth, Ashford, Kent, Reading, Berkshire and Bedford. Twice-daily services also operate to Birmingham and Manchester, and via Bristol to Wales. The fastest service from London Victoria takes 51 minutes.Brighton & Hove Bus and Coach Company operates 300 buses. There is also a limited night service. Brighton seafront is the home of the Volks Electric Railway, the world's oldest electric railway.Brighton MarinaBrighton Marina is a large, man-made marina situated in Brighton, England. The construction of the marina itself took place between 1971 and 1979, although developments within it have continued ever since. The marina covers an area of approximately 127 acres.Existing facilitiesThe land within the marina has been developed in several stages and now accommodates a large ASDA supermarket and two groups of boutique shops, restaurants and bars, plus a hotel, a bowling alley, a health club, a casino, and a multiplex cinema with a multi-storey car-park built over and around it. On the east side of the marina there are several gated communities consisting of townhouses and apartments, some of which come with their own moorings, alongside public moorings and facilities for boats and their users, ranging from boat sales and service companies through to a floating launderette at the main moorings. Both harbour arms are popular locations for local fishermen; the east breakwater is often packed to capacity during summer weekends, and there is regular sightseeing and fishing boat trips from the marina..A SeaJet service ran from the Marina to Dieppe in France between 1979 and 1980. Two Boeing Jetfoils were used, with three "flights" per day. The service suffered from poor reliability of the Jetfoils in the early stages, was restricted due to mid-channel wave height, and suffered during the French fishermen's blockade of channel ports.From time to time there have been summer-season passenger services to Fécamp, France, using small catamaran ferries.Immediately to the west of the marina is Black Rock, wasteground which was once a lido and is to be redeveloped into an arena.Ongoing developmentsWork was due to begin in spring 2007 on a new district of the marina to contain 853 new apartments, cafés, bars and restaurants. The development was planned for the south-western part of the marina and would partly sit on stilts over the sea. The centrepiece building was to be a skyscraper dubbed The Roaring Forties which would stand at 40 storeys tall and include a public viewing platform on the top floor. Two new pedestrian bridges were to be included in the scheme, one retractable to link the marina arms and the second to link the western beach with the new scheme. The developers are local firm Brunswick, and the architects are Wilkinson Eyre, noted for Gateshead Millennium Bridge. CABE have highlighted the development as one of four national developments demonstrating best practice in design and planning. No significant building work has started and the whole project has now been put on hold in view of the current financial climate.A planning application to redevelop much of the west side of the marina was submitted in October 2007. The plans include several tall apartment blocks (the tallest would be Marina Point which would be 28 storeys high and Quayside which was to be 16 storeys), various new retail provisions including small shops, a new central square (where the current roundabout stands) and an "eco park", connected to the Undercliff Walk. The supermarket would be demolished and rebuilt to a larger size with car parking underground and apartments above, freeing up the considerable space presently used for its open-air car park, allowing for further development. The petrol station and McDonalds would also be demolished and rebuilt under this scheme. Around five new apartment blocks will be added to the marina in total. The developers are Explore Living, a division of Laing O'Rourke, and the architects are Allies and Morrison. Planning permission for this scheme was refused on 12 December 2008 when the six Conservative and three Green members of the planning committee voted against it, with only the three Labour members voting in favour.There has been considerable local opposition to both the above developments, which have been accused of being inappropriate, too dense, damaging to the Brighton skyline and to cliff and sea views, and in breach of the provision of the Brighton Marina Act 1968 that no building should exceed cliff height (approximately ten storeys). The main campaigning organisation is savebrighton which is coordinating opposition from individual residents, residents' organisations and amenity groups. The campaign was launched in November 2007. The founder of savebrighton, Brian Simpson, has written an e-petition to the Prime Minister calling for the "gross over-development of Brighton Marina" to be stopped.Update 2013It appears that the planning permission for this redevelopement continues and as yet no physical changes to the Brighton skyline have been approved.The text on this HISTORY page is covered by the following licence http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_the_GNU_Free_Documentation_Licensewww.premiermarinas.com/marinas/brighton-marina0Brighton MarinaBrighton Marina01273 81991980 or 3724 hoursChart of Approaches to Brighton Marina.Chart of Brighton MarinaVisiChart, entrance to Brighton MarinaBrighton spring 2019Brighton mud 2019Small craft areas drying at LW2021 could use some dredging within the marina3.Entry Possible2.The Marina CAN be entered in these conditions7.Small Boat Moorings, looking out towards cassions9.Looking OUT8.Packing them in...Plenty of room for visitorsAncasta International Boat Saleshttp://www.ancasta.co.uk/Brighton/Brokerage & New Boat Sales verified by VMH 02/03/2010Ancasta International Boat Sales21 WaterfrontBrighton MarinaBrightonBN2 5WASussexUK050.812842-0.1021894Ancasta International Boat Sales21 WaterfrontBrighton MarinaBrightonBN2 5WASussexUKAncasta International Boat Salesbrighton@ancasta.co.uk01273 673232brighton@ancasta.co.uk01273 673232Aidan Tuckett , Brighton Marine Surveyshttp://www.brightonmarinesurveys.co.ukMarine Surveyor, YDSA affiliate member- Boat Surveys -

Take care every one!-1Don Thomson 32019-04-01T12:47:00+01:00Update Spring 2019It is uncertain when they intend dredging here but during the spring equinox local berth holders were left high and dry at LW springs.-1Don Thomson2016-03-18T09:40:00+00:00Update Spring 2016These notes were reviewed by Don in March 2016. Prices have been updated for the 2016 season.-1Don Thomson2016-03-18T10:02:00+00:00Further update Spring 2016The building work on the des res to the West of the harbour continues and it is not known what effect that will have on the ambiance of the visitors berths. NB There are questions about the depths in the entrance(see the text above). If planning a visit here with a boat with over 1 metre draft contact the harbour to ascertain restrictions-1Don Thomson2014-04-08T10:06:00+01:00Update April 2014These notes were updated April 2014. Prices have been updated and you should note that there is building going on on the west side of the marina (des. reses.)-1Don Thomson2013-03-14T08:29:00+00:00Update 2013The notes for Brighton were updated by Don T on the 14th March 2013. No major changes have occured and prices have been updated for the 2013 season. As far as we can tell no building work has started on the proposed new developements.-1David Sinnock2013-01-25T11:14:00+00:00Brighton MainaAll that can be said of Brighton marina is that it offers excellent shelter if on passage.If your looking for peace and tranquility at reasonable cost. Forget it. it's expensive and noisy.The facilities need up grading when last I visited in July 2012 and at low water with a draft of two meters I was aground in my berth and could not leave until an hour after low water springs!-1Orwellian2024-09-20T23:29:00+01:00Half tide marinaI arrived in August aware that depth could be an issue either side of low water. It was 3 hours before low water and having given our draft, were allocated a berth. The entrance was fine but as we started around the marina it was clear that inside the harbour wall there was already mud visible for a couple of meters from the wall. As we approached the turn down the fairway into the pontoons a departing boat shouted a warning about the depth. We kept to the centre as advised and turned into our row. Almost immediately the depth gauge showed zero and the boat started to drag. We were able to plough our way into our allotted berth. A few minutes later a French boat arrived and ran hard aground off our stern. We immediately took a line from them and winced them around and were able to free them to return to a deeper part of the channel. An hour later as we left the boat she was six inches out of the water. The facilities in the marina are good and I feel very sorry for the little yacht club that is struggling to survive. However for a company like Premier Marinas to allow the site to degenerate to this extent is disgraceful. When I contacted them to complain they just referred me to their dredging programme, which I can see exists (the visitor pontoons have been removed for more than a year for dredging), but it is clearly totally inadequate.-1Don Thomson2018-03-26T11:59:00+01:00UPDATE SPRING 2018The amenities on the East Jetty have been refurbished. The building on the Boardwalk is now complete and doesn't appear to be affecting the views; in fact, the commercial properties underneath the flats has increased the choices of where to spend your money. The depth at the entrance is still causing problems and the NOTAM is still in force about that. Finally, there has been no increase in the prices.-1Tyro Sailor2024-06-07T12:05:00+01:00Well-equipped, soulless and convenient.I was here for two nights earlier this week. The entrance and nearby berths have silted up and dredging was in progress, which has temporarily reduced the number of available berths - but there are still plenty. The starboard hand marks in the entrance have been removed to facilitate dredging - keep close to the other side of the channel. It's not cheap - £36/night for my 26' boat - but I did get a small discount as my berth was one of several without an electric tree. If you like McDonald's, casinos and concrete you'll be well served but a pleasant stop it ain't. A monster Asda is a few minutes' walk to the west, as is the only car park available for anyone visiting you - ask the friendly staff in the office for a (free) pass. Good heads and showers in combined cubicles, but not enough space for stuff. No.7 bus goes into town from near Asda. The Pavilion is just about worth the £19 entry fee (discount for English Heritage members, which I discovered too late) and the Bohemian atmosphere of the streets towards the station is worth sampling.-1Don Thomson 32023-02-12T13:31:00+00:00UPDATE January 2023They have reissued the NOTAM re depths in the Marina - if over 2m draft stay clear for two hours eother side of LW-1Don Thomson 32022-04-28T11:20:00+01:00Update April 2022I updated these notes in late April 2022. There are still doubts about the depths within the marina. They are quoting reasonable depths in the entrance but you would be advised to query them before setting out for here. They still have a Notice to Mariners 11 of 2021 in force advising restricting movement around the marinas to four hours either side of HW due to depths in the fairways.-1rupertemerson2022-04-23T15:01:00+01:00WindyWorth bearing in mind that when the wind gets up along the south coast it can really whistle through Brighton Marina. Spending that bit of time optimising fenders and warps will be worth it. If you do find a fender squashed then the chandlery at the far end will re-inflate it for you.-1LowWater2026-07-01T05:57:00false1.1539388110922164falsefalse2026-07-01T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-01T12:08:00false5.8937239470759168falsefalse2026-07-01T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-01T18:15:00false1.3421313155544663falsefalse2026-07-01T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-02T00:13:00false5.8165044534475436falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-02T06:32:00false1.143022373628918falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-02T12:40:00false5.9106757263861045falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-02T18:51:00false1.3385557843903964falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-03T00:45:00false5.7904737234057073falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-03T07:07:00false1.1516967728426972falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-03T13:12:00false5.91026990506324falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-03T19:25:00false1.3446326873076313falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-04T01:16:00false5.7663239417311427falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-04T07:41:00false1.1663299773205156falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-04T13:43:00false5.9053957107318116falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-04T19:59:00false1.3513886964222415falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-05T01:49:00false5.7468825276120148falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-05T08:16:00false1.1859251215432536falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-05T14:17:00false5.8932341770482637falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-05T20:36:00false1.3658817658252023falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-06T02:28:00false5.712116529296293falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-06T08:55:00false1.2260436399081198falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-06T14:57:00false5.8520057416169218falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-06T21:19:00false1.4061512524940247falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-07T03:12:00false5.6370709534620334falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-07T09:40:00false1.3062715295615falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-07T15:44:00false5.7645864008110106falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-07T22:09:00false1.4799647210434663falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-01T05:57:00false1.1539388110922164falsefalse2026-07-01T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-01T12:08:00false5.8937239470759168falsefalse2026-07-01T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-01T18:15:00false1.3421313155544663falsefalse2026-07-01T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-02T00:13:00false5.8165044534475436falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-02T06:32:00false1.143022373628918falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-02T12:40:00false5.9106757263861045falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-02T18:51:00false1.3385557843903964falsefalse2026-07-02T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-03T00:45:00false5.7904737234057073falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-03T07:07:00false1.1516967728426972falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-03T13:12:00false5.91026990506324falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-03T19:25:00false1.3446326873076313falsefalse2026-07-03T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-04T01:16:00false5.7663239417311427falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-04T07:41:00false1.1663299773205156falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-04T13:43:00false5.9053957107318116falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-04T19:59:00false1.3513886964222415falsefalse2026-07-04T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-05T01:49:00false5.7468825276120148falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-05T08:16:00false1.1859251215432536falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-05T14:17:00false5.8932341770482637falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-05T20:36:00false1.3658817658252023falsefalse2026-07-05T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-06T02:28:00false5.712116529296293falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-06T08:55:00false1.2260436399081198falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-06T14:57:00false5.8520057416169218falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-06T21:19:00false1.4061512524940247falsefalse2026-07-06T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-07T03:12:00false5.6370709534620334falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-07T09:40:00false1.3062715295615falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00HighWater2026-07-07T15:44:00false5.7645864008110106falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00LowWater2026-07-07T22:09:00false1.4799647210434663falsefalse2026-07-07T00:00:00
