About

Ocean Village is a waterside quarter centred on a marina and a line of floating pontoons that give direct access to the Solent. The development mixes apartment blocks, offices, cafes and marine services along a continuous waterfront promenade. Boats from small day launches to privately owned yachts berth here, and mooring fingers and refuelling facilities sit alongside waterside dining and bars. A pedestrian bridge and slipways link the marina-edge streets to the city centre promenade.

Town Quay sits a short walk east of Ocean Village and functions as a working passenger quay and boat-service hub on Southampton Water. It is the embarkation point for frequent ferry and charter services, including the short crossing to Hythe and the preserved pier railway there. The quay area contains ticket offices, boat operators’ workshops and riverside seating where vessels load and unload. Movement of launch traffic and shore-side marine support creates a steady maritime rhythm that defines this stretch of the central waterfront.
