D-MARIN SUMMER EVENTS BRING MARINAS TO LIFE AND BOOST VISITOR NUMBERS
D‑Marin, the premium marina network, is bringing its destinations across the Mediterranean to life this summer through a programme of more than 70 carefully curated cultural, sporting and social experiences.
Created for yacht owners, captains, crew members and local communities, the programme will transform D‑Marin’s marinas into vibrant destinations throughout the peak yachting season.
From regattas and open-air cinema evenings to cultural festivals, wellness sessions and community celebrations, the diverse programme offers guests even more opportunities to connect, unwind and enjoy the D‑Marin experienceboth on and off the water.
The programme coincides with a particularly strong summer for D‑Marin’s transient business, with bookings across its marinas significantly ahead of the same period in 2025.
Growth has been especially strong among larger yachts. During June and July, bookings for vessels exceeding 50 metres increased by 33 per cent year on year, while bookings for yachts measuring between 30 and 50 metres rose by 10 per cent.
Dean Smith, Chief Commercial Officer at D‑Marin, said: “Since last summer, we have introduced our ‘Feels like yachting should feel’ philosophy, reinforcing our commitment to delivering premium experiences both on and off the water. Creating opportunities for connection, enjoyment and discovery remains central to the experience we provide our guests.
“The popularity of our summer events programme, combined with the strong increase in bookings, demonstrates how positively customers are responding to this approach.
“It also reflects the dedication of our teams across the Mediterranean, who work tirelessly to make every visit memorable while bringing our brand values of refined service, thoughtful attention to detail and innovation to life.”
