About us

SAFETY IN THE MARINA

Please be aware of your safety while on the pontoons – by their very nature they do wobble sometimes! Keep an eye on young children – we insist that our children wear buoyancy aids if they are on the water.

COVID-19

We will continue to monitor the ongoing Covid situation and adapt accordingly. We have hand sanitiser stations around the marina and keep a constant flow of air through the buildings.

FIRE SAFETY

Hopefully it never happens but incase of fire, the assembly point is next to the very large anchor at the top of the pontoon bridge. If the fire alarm sounds please make your way there calmly and quietly and await further instructions from our team.

FIRST AID

First aid can be found at the marina office, please ask a member of our staff for assistance no matter how minor it may seem. There is also an AED device located near the top of the pontoon bridge.

    Comfy walking shoes, a map or access to the visitor guides on our website, and a bag for all the snacks and goodies you pick up along the way! Check the weather forecast, but as the weather can change quickly in this part of the world we always suggest a raincoat and suncream in the summer.
