Hartlepool

Yet another planned visit on our whirlwind tour of the east coast next summer. Hartlepool Marina will be one of the few all singing all dancing modern marinas we visit on the trip. It will be in stark contrast to the small harbours and ports we will have visited before hand. Hartlepool Marina offers all the mod cons that any boater visiting or resident will require and of course has that all important fuel pump.

 Hartlepool Headland an obvious navigational marker.

 Another set of breakwaters to navigate.

 The lock at the marina entrance.

 A large modern marina in stark contrast to the small ports we will have visited in the previous days cruising.

Despite being a modern facility there is still plenty of historic interest on the quayside.
