Port Louis Marina in Grenada to Release 90 New Berths in 2019

Camper & Nicholsons Marinas is delighted to announce plans for the expansion of its Port Louis Marina in Grenada commencing in Spring 2019, with berths ready for occupation by August 2019.

Port Louis Marina is the superyacht and cruising hub in the Southern Caribbean, situated below the hurricane belt, the marina currently has 160 berths for vessels up to 90m in length.

Working closely with pontoon manufacturer Marinetek, Camper & Nicholsons in house technical team have designed a further 90 berths, ranging from 12 metres to 22 metres on 2 new piers forming part of an exciting expansion development for Port Louis Marina, boosting greater opportunity for a larger number of yacht visitors, and long lease berthing options in the marina.

Owned and managed by Camper & Nicholsons Marinas, Port Louis Marina overlooks the historic capital of St. Georges and is designed to reflect the traditional Creole architecture. The marina has transformed Grenada’s yachting facilities, providing an ideal base from which to explore the unspoilt cruising destination of the Grenadines and the Windward Islands of the Southern Caribbean.

With a full list of facilities and technical service support, international connections plus the added benefits of the Camper & Nicholsons Standard, the marina is a haven for superyachts and yachts throughout the year.

Glynn Thomas, General Manager at Port Louis Marina comments, “We have seen a greater interest in large catamarans visiting our marina and anticipate this trend in the Caribbean to grow even further. The new pontoon layout will enable us to accommodate more of the catamarans and give us greater flexibility for small to mid-sized boats all year round.”

Dan Hughes COO, Camper & Nicholsons Marinas comments, “It is an exciting time for Camper & Nicholsons and particularly for Port Louis Marina on the southern Caribbean island of Grenada. The business continues to grow and as a result, further investment and the expansion of our facilities is necessary. The additional 90 berths will not only allow us to accommodate those we turn away but will also help us support the required space for many international events that we are proud to host including the RORC Transatlantic Race, World Arc, Oyster World Rally along with more regional boat and charter shows.

"The choice to place an order with Marinetek in November 2018 for the additional 90 berths was an easy one to make. Their professionalism, expertise and willingness to work to a tight timetable gives us continued confidence in the Marinetek team and their products and we look forward to continuing to work with them on our other projects around the world.”
