For visiting boats
Liverpool Marina is an independent marina in the Coburg and Brunswick Docks on the Mersey waterfront, a ten-minute walk from Liverpool city centre and the Three Graces. It has over 300 serviced and unserviced berths entered through a tidal lock, a fuel berth, mobile pump-outs and fuel deliveries, a laundrette, showers, free Wi-Fi across the pontoons, a kiosk, and a bar and restaurant. Next door are a boatyard with a 60-tonne hoist, a chandlery and engine workshops, and an RYA sea school runs courses from the marina. The office is staffed around the clock.
