The waterfront in Sunderland has been transformed in recent years by extensive redevelopment including the impressive marina complex at North Dock. Originally constructed by Brunel in 1837, the Dock has been renovated and extended to provide the modern marina we now enjoy. Sunderland Marina aims to provide top class facilities combined with friendly, efficient service. The Marina is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year round and is dedicated to provide a personal service to all users and their families. The Marina consists of 113 fore-and-aft moorings, 26 un-serviced berths and 88 fully serviced pontoon berths.

Hartlepool Marina is one of the most modern Marina facilities in Europe. Featuring one of Europe's biggest boat hoists and attracting hundreds of vessels, the £60 million Marina is Hartlepool's most alluring and relaxing location. High fashion, waterside restaurants and romantic promenades may be more characteristic of a continental port, but Hartlepool has definitely made marina life a delicacy of its own.

Essex Marina has the attraction and advantage of up to 500 deep water moorings, including 50 swinging moorings all with access to the sea at all states of the tide. The Marina is located just 7 miles from Southend on Sea and Basildon and serves an urban population of up to half a million people within less than 30 minutes driving time.

Bradwell Marina situated on the picturesque Blackwater Estuary has been privately owned since 1984. Bradwell is a small village set on the Essex coast. With peaceful walks and a smugglers pub just minutes away, you could not ask for a more relaxing spot. Nearby is St Peters Chapel, reputed to be the oldest church in Essex.
