About Port Hamble

Situated near the entrance of Southampton Water, the Hamble is home to thousands of boats. The beautiful Hamble village has a heritage of boat building and restoration and has been home for many of the UK’s top sailors. From here you can even take the bright pink Hamble Ferry across the River to visit Warsash and the Rising Sun pub.

Packed with an excellent choice of pubs and waterside restaurants there’s plenty of places to berth on the Hamble too. Starting with Hamble Point Marina near the entrance, Port Hamble, Mercury Marina, and leading to Universal and Swanick Marinas as you explore further upstream.

We will be visiting Hamble Point Marina which is based right in the heart of Hamble Village.

About the trip

Meet at the Crate cafe at 9am for a short brief of the guided trip. We plan to depart Trafalgar Wharf at 10am. The journey will take around 1 hour 30 minutes arriving at Hamble Point Marina for 11:30. We would recommend lunch at the Ketch Rigger which is a nice little restaurant nearby. We plan to depart Port Hamble Marina at 1:30 pm to be back at Trafalgar at 4:00pm.

Boat Share 

You may want to share your boat with other members, which is a great way to meet new people and make new friends, but also you can split the cost
of the fuel and the mooring fees when there are pontoon charges. All you need to do is indicate on the booking app ‘happy to share’ and we’ll arrange
this for you.

The boats currently available for boat sharing are Maia (7 passengers) and Sunna (8 passengers).

*Boats are subject to change depending on availability and demand.*

If you would like to use your own boat to join the Hamble Point Marina Discovery Guided Trip

If you are happy to boat share and split the fuel costs please indicate this on the booking form/app
