D-Marin welcomes Marina Genova as its 30th marina

D-Marin, the selection of premium marinas, has announced the acquisition of Marina Genova, one of the Mediterranean’s leading yacht and superyacht destinations.

Located in Genoa, the marina expands D-Marin’s superyacht offering in the Western Mediterranean and brings its portfolio to 30 marinas across nine countries.

Marina Genova offers more than 450 berths for boats and yachts from 8 to 130 metres. Of these, more than 100 are dedicated to superyachts over 24 metres. Its four basins, deep-water berthing and technical facilities make it a well-established base for large yachts and their crews.

The marina also offers more than 1,000 parking spaces, restaurants, a boutique hotel and marina village amenities for owners, guests and crews.

Oliver Dörschuck, CEO of D-Marin, commented: “Marina Genova brings together the berthing capacity, technical services and experienced maritime community that superyacht owners and crews need. Its location also opens up access to some of the Mediterranean’s most popular cruising destinations. We look forward to working with the local team and building on the marina’s established reputation.”

Situated just five minutes from Genoa International Airport, Marina Genova offers convenient access for international owners and guests travelling to their yachts from abroad. Close to the city’s UNESCO-listed historic centre, the marina also provides a base for cruising to destinations including Portofino, Portovenere, Sardinia and the French Riviera.

The marina offers 24-hour mooring assistance and a refuelling quay of more than 150 metres. Its shipyard area includes crane capacity of up to 100 tonnes, workshops and dry dock facilities, while specialist partners provide maintenance, refit, provisioning, yacht management and agency services.

The addition of Marina Genova complements D-Marin’s existing marinas in Liguria, Tuscany, Sardinia and the Adriatic, giving customers more choice when planning their journeys around Italy and the wider Mediterranean.

The completion of the transaction remains subject to regulatory approvals. D-Marin was advised by Livingstone as financial advisor and by Latham & Watkins regarding legal and contractual matters.
