Services
Marina Cover
Marina superintendents visit the marina twice per day in the peak summer months, June to August and once per day in May and September. Local committee members provide winter cover from October till April. Marina staff attendence times are displayed at the gatehouse along with the marina mobile numbers and also the office contact number. The office is run on a part-time flexible basis. We will make every effort to answer your call whenever you ring but if you do get the answering machine please leave a message and phone number and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
Security
Security of the marina site is of great importance to us. The marina is accessible through a locked security gate. Key fobs are issued to permanent berth holders and long term visitors (those staying 3 months or more) and the 4 digit key code is changed regularly for short term visitors. Please ensure you know the key code before leaving the marina. If the marina superintendent is not available call the contact number provided at the gate.
Toilets/Showers/Laundry
In Stromness these facilities are located in the harbour building adjacent to the marina. For Kirkwall visitors, new facilities adjacent to the marina are in the planning. Until then visitors can use the shower and toilet facilities in the Orkney Sailing Club, across from the habour in Shore Street. Laundry facilities are located a short walk away in Bridge Street. For Westray, toilet and shower facilities are located at the marina.

Trolleys are available at all three marinas.
