Ocean Village Marina occupies a waterfront location in Southampton, developed on the site of the former Princess Alexandra Dock. The marina provides berthing for boats and yachts within the city centre, with access to the Solent and wider waters beyond. The transformation of this historic dock into a modern leisure facility has created a focal point for water-based recreation and maritime activity in Southampton.
The marina is surrounded by residential apartments, restaurants and bars that line the waterfront, making it a destination for both boat owners and visitors exploring Southampton’s harbour areas. Its position within the city means good connections to local amenities and transport links, while the working harbour atmosphere and boat traffic give the area a distinctly maritime character. The site continues the long history of Southampton’s importance as a port and trading centre.
