This is the official marina.wiki^™, written and maintained by sailors. Since its' start, marina.wiki^™ has become one of the largest and most comprehensive online free references for sailors, with 3,379 moorings and counting.

Marina.wiki^™ is free. Used by thousands of people each month. Many actively contributing and improving the knowledge.

To find a marina or mooring:

• search by text
• explore the map
• browse countries

While the original focus was on marinas the wiki now also includes six additional categories of moorings, the resulting seven types of moorings are defined as:

• Marina: sheltered quayside or pontoon access to a minimum set of facilities (toilet, shower, water, and electricity). Within a natural or man-made harbour or port.
• Port: a man-made commercial shelter with a quay for loading or unloading goods, often large and may have a marina or quay inside.
• Harbour: a man-made or natural shelter. May have a jetty, quay or buoys inside. Missing at least one of the four basic facilities provided by a marina. Not all harbours are equal: they vary in depth and size, they may have restricted tidal access or be fully or partially drying. We indicate the key differences on maps and in harbour pages: refer to the keys to maps.
• Quay: a solid stone structure without the shelter of a port used to load or unload goods. Quays run parallel with the coast.
• Jetty/Pier: a wooden or solid structure projecting into the sea that may float with the tide and be secured by vertical piles.
• Buoys: a small or large collection of buoys located within a harbour, river, bay, or cove.
• Anchorage: a location with a history of being used to set anchor within a river, bay, cove or channel.
