Jersey Marinas has received the 5 Gold Anchor accreditation from The Yacht Harbour Association (TYHA) for all three of its St Helier marinas. This follows three years of investment in marina infrastructure and customer service.
The accreditation reflects Jersey Marinas’ service to more than 1,200 berth holders and over 5,000 visiting vessels annually. It also highlights the facilities available at the marinas and the sailing opportunities around the island.
The Gold Anchor scheme has been assessing marinas worldwide for over 25 years. It audits infrastructure, systems and customer service, providing feedback every three years to help marinas maintain and improve standards. The scheme is delivered globally by TYHA and the Marina Industries Association.
Jersey Marinas provides pontoon mooring for over 1,150 craft, with more than 900 annual berths and around 250 for visiting or monthly-lease vessels. The Old Harbour features over 500 dry moorings for craft up to 14 metres.
Berth holders have access to 24-hour security, travel hoists for vessels up to 65 tonnes, Wi-Fi, cafés, shops, pump-out stations, showers, refuelling points, electricity supply, recycling and a launderette. The marinas are located near St Helier’s waterfront, shops, restaurants and entertainment.
