Medina Mariners Association

The Medina Mariners Association is a registered charity with a mission to protect and preserve the amenities and environment of the Medina Estuary for the recreational use of the general public and to provide or to facilitate the provision of facilities for the inhabitants of the Isle of Wight for recreation and leisure time occupation.

The Association therefore has a particular interest in serving the interests of the ordinary family river user and berth holders alike.  To help achieve this it provides an area for storage of dinghies and a scrubbing berth for yachts, and organises regular dinghy racing and cruising rallies and associated social activities.  It also acts as a pressure group to try and protect the estuary from over-exploitation for commercial purposes, and to improve facilities for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers where appropriate.

Further details about the Association can be found on the brief history page, the facilities page, and the initiatives page.  The Association also is keen to welcome new members.  Details of topical matters of interest can be found on the newsletter pages and the events page.  There is also a members’ section on the web site where recent Committee minutes and AGM minutes can be viewed.
