Cheapest marinas for boats over 30m in the South East
Every site here with a published price, cheapest first, worked out for the same boat so the figures compare. Marinas and harbours that say they take boats over 30m (100ft): a stated maximum length, or a published price for a boat that size. Canal sites that only take narrowboats are left out; see 70ft narrowboat moorings for those. Superyacht berths are few and often booked well ahead, so ask early.
