Hamble Point Marina, one of MDL Marinas' premier locations, is enhancing its facilities with the construction of state-of-the-art toilets and showers, set to open for the 2025 boating season.

Part of a £500,000 development project, this upgrade is designed to provide berth holders and visitors with a modern, comfortable and customer-friendly experience.

The enhanced toilets and showers will feature contemporary individual cubicles, family-friendly spaces and dedicated accessible facilities. PIR (Passive Infrared) operated lighting and ventilation systems will be installed to improve energy efficiency and sustainability, creating a more environmentally friendly and pleasant user experience.

This project marks a significant step forward in ensuring Hamble Point Marina remains one of the most attractive and customer-centric locations on the River Hamble.

"We're excited to begin work on this important upgrade," says Debbie Burns, Manager of Hamble Point Marina. "Our customers deserve the very best, and this investment emphasises our ongoing dedication to improving their experience. The new facilities will not only be more accessible but also set a new standard in comfort and convenience for all boaters visiting Hamble Point Marina."

This project is a key element of a wider £1.2m investment across Hamble Point Marina, which includes upgrades to roadways, waste management facilities and parking. The marina's prime location at the mouth of the River Hamble and proximity to the Solent make it a favoured destination for both competitive sailors and leisure cruisers. These improvements will further cement its reputation as a leading marina offering first-class facilities.
