Update May 2022
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 31st May 2022
I reviewed these notes back in April 2022 but delayed the editing in the hopes that their new amenities block would open on Town Quay and, today on the 31st May I'm delighted to inform you that they will be handed over to the HM tomorrow!!
Lymington Town Quay
Written by chitchat | 18th Oct 2021
Friendly and intimate atmoshere compared with the big marinas. New finger pontoons are bookable; places on outside of this pontoon still allow rafting I believe. Apparently some plans for new shower block in car park turned down by council so rethink required as current facilities looking a bit tired.
We paid £40 (week night) and £43 (weekend night) for 37'
Wightlink Ferries
Written by Ian Pawson | 28th May 2021
The ferries run ‘roughly’ every hour, not every 30 minutes as in the Flashman text.
UPDATE SPRING 2021
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 21st Apr 2021
We received corrections to previous notes from the Lymington HM which have been incorporated in the text. The notes by Garry Flashman have remained unedited but some of his reflections may now be out of date.
Town Quay
Written by Tyro Sailor | 18th Mar 2021
One of the nicest and cheapest alongside berths in the Solent has been done up, as is becoming well known (see below). Lots of individual berths, with water and electricity, which some will welcome, but at a price: the cost for my 26' Centaur increased from £14 to £20 for the night. None of that chummy rafting up.any more (possibly a covid advantage) with all the early-morning entertainment that involves, and there's no sign of an improvement to the heads to accommodate the inevitably increasing demand.
There's an excellent Indian restaurant immediately you enter the high street on the right, but the rather nice tea shop a little way up the hill on the left has, sadly, closed down.
New layout at town quay
Written by Conrad ryle | 28th Nov 2020
Visited the Town Quay in July 2020. Impressed by the extended layout providing some finger berths and able to cater for more visitors without the need to raft up. Prices still a good deal lower than the marina's.

UPDATE SPRING 2020
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 12th Mar 2020
I reviewed these notes in March 2020. The pontoon layout up at the Town Quay differs depending on which chart to consult - the least up to date is possibly the UKHO!! Prices are up again this year and I have uploaded this years UKHO Chart.
UPDATE SPRING 2018
Written by Don Thomson | 20th Mar 2018
Much the same as our last update. Prices up across the board and we have uploaded this years chart
Update Spring 2016
Written by dononshytalk | 9th Mar 2016
These notes were reviewed by Don in March 2016. There have been price changes across the board and you may find that the HM will encourage you to tie up to the Dan Bran pontoon rather than the Town Quay.
Update April 2014
Written by dononshytalk | 1st Apr 2014
We have revised these notes for the 2014 season and adjusted prices. The main change is that I have changed the tenor of the notes for Lymington Marina which, although it has no dedicated visitor berths seldom finds it necessary to turn visitors away (the HM there can't remember when this last happened). So we have treated it in the same way as we would a facility with allocated visitor berths.
