Hartlepool Marina

Hartlepool Marina occupies the former South Docks of Hartlepool on the Slake, in the Tees Valley on England's north-east coast.

The site lay vacant after shipbuilder William Gray & Company went into liquidation in 1964, before Teesside Development Corporation initiated its conversion into a marina in the late 1980s. It was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in May 1993.

Situated in Tees Bay, the marina offers straightforward access to the open sea as well as sheltered cruising waters. On-site boatyard services include a 40-tonne travel hoist, a mobile crane for masts and engine lifts, and maintenance and repair facilities.

The surrounding waterfront area includes restaurants, bars, retail outlets, and the Museum of Hartlepool, while a promenade links the marina to the beaches at Seaton Carew.
