Mylor Yacht Harbour

Safeguarding the next generation of marine professionals…

Mylor Yacht Harbour with its contemporary Marina, working boatyard, eateries and clustered holiday cottages combines state of the art facilities with an illustrious maritime history, all set at the heart of one of the world’s most beautiful and sheltered waterways – the Carrick Roads on the south Cornish coast.

Its understated elegance provides the peaceful haven for luxury yachts and fishing craft, transatlantic voyagers and day cruisers as well as a keenly competitive racing community. Visiting yachtsmen and women find a friendly welcome from the marina staff and expertise on-hand from Mylor’s Marine Team of comprehensive boatyard specialists where all mechanical and service requirements are catered for.

Mylor is a hidden gem on the banks of the Fal Estuary in an Area of Outstand Natural Beauty. Secluded and tranquil yet it’s a short hop across the water to the bustle of the historic Port of Falmouth or the glorious coast, coves, inlets and beaches of St Mawes and the Helford River.

Two hundred years ago in the great days of sail Mylor was England’s smallest naval dockyard in one of the world’s most strategic ports; with consistent investment through the last 20 years it is now one of the South West’s busiest boatyards and marinas with first class pontoon berths and swinging moorings anchored in some of the country’s finest sailing waters.

The company continues to invest in skills development through its own apprenticeship   scheme and ongoing work with local schools and collages to promote careers within the marine sector for young people in the south west and beyond. As testament to this commitment Mylor is embarking on a project that will see a new generation of GRP Sunbeam sailing yachts to be finished in Falmouth by the next generation of boat builders.
