There is plentiful free parking (and, as far as I could discern, without time limit). The Marina offers endless possibilities for waterside walks both long and short and the actual seafront is close by too. We felt that the modern, domestic architecture was entirely appropriate and largely "human" in scale. Few recently-designed locations manage to be this attractive. Not everything is modern, however, there are two Martello towers within easy walking distance.

We’ve been here a few times but today was very busy, I didn’t expect it to be, not any social distancing in place, felt very uncomfortable. Way too many people. We walked round the harbour, which is a nice walk just not when there are loads of people who have forgotten to socially distance. I think we will wait before returning.

Not easy to get to on public transport but lovely walk see the boats. Nice cafes restaurants to choose from all with proper covid measures. Nice family meal and ice creams. Summer time i expect its busy. Children enjoyed looking, will return and do boat trips when warmed up again.

Situated in an area of retail and residential developments, the marina is just about worth a short visit, if only to take a stroll around and look at the boats. There is a large free car park, a small retail park and restaurant area, with a variety of restaurants, most of which have outside seating overlooking the water. If you are not going there to eat (or shop) not that interesting.

When they trashed the Crumbles nature reserve to build this place, I'm pretty sure the dream wasn't to build an ASDA, Primarni, awful sports bar, crappy pub and a Harvester to cater for the boating fraternity. But that's what you get here. Incredible when many of the apartments cost close to half a million. Can do better but council doesn't seem to care.

A group of us (6) came down to harbour today for a sunny trip around it. The weather is glorious and perfect for a tour but yet again the harbour boat tours are not running. I was told by some local people that it is about time the business was sold to someone who was willing to run it. There were quite a few others around who were showing an interest, no signs were put up saying that they were no running but it was still advertising the trips on a board, but doesn’t actually give times.

This was a lovely hotel. We went all inclusive with 2 young children and the food was lovely. The hotel has a well stocked supermarket, gift shops, beautiful swimming pool and children's pool. The room had a kitchen, was clean and had air conditioning. Cleaners came in daily to make beds and clean, they were curious and pleasant.
The beach is across the road but I reccomend walking a bit further up for a more pleasant beach as the one opposite isn't as nice.

The person who runs the boat tours needs training on customer service or to be sacked which in my opinion a better choice as so very rude.

Please don’t use the marina boat tours the person who runs this tour is the rudest and most disrespectful person we have ever met.
Spoke to other people who said is heavily over priced and an extremely arrogant gentleman.
Such a shame as such a nice marina.

Cannot recommend the new Turkish Marina Restaurant. Save your money. Went for a meal and the food and service were terrible. The hot food served was cold and inedible possibly because food was pre cooked and reheated in a microwave. The chicken was dry and lamb was tough. Over priced food and soft drinks and not licensed for alcohol drinks. This is definitely not a genuine traditional Turkish restaurant.

Even in these difficult times the harbour is a nice place to visit for walking and socialising. Before going for lunch we walked around the harbour and surrounding area and enjoyed the warm sunshine and luckily, not too many people being a Bank Holiday weekend.
There are plenty of restaurants, bars and coffee shops to suit all tastes when visiting here.
