Set on the beautiful East Sussex coast at Eastbourne, Sovereign Harbour is one of the UK’s most impressive modern marinas — a vibrant waterside destination that perfectly blends relaxed coastal living with contemporary convenience. With its award-winning marina complex, scenic waterfront homes, and a welcoming community atmosphere, Sovereign Harbour has become one of the south coast’s most desirable places to live.

A Modern Marina with a Community Feel

Built in the 1990s, Sovereign Harbour is now the largest composite marina development in northern Europe. It’s made up of four linked harbours — Inner, Outer, North, and South — offering over 800 berths, along with stylish apartments, townhouses, and detached homes lining the water’s edge. The marina’s layout provides many properties with direct water views, private moorings, and easy access to the sea.

Beyond its impressive scale, what really sets Sovereign Harbour apart is its community. The Waterfront area buzzes with cafés, restaurants, and local shops, creating a sociable, village-like feel. Residents enjoy leisurely walks along the harbour arms, outdoor dining beside the yachts, and a year-round calendar of local events that bring neighbours together.

Lifestyle and Leisure

Living in Sovereign Harbour means being steps away from the sea — and from endless opportunities to make the most of coastal life. The marina provides excellent facilities for boat owners, while nearby Eastbourne’s beaches and South Downs National Park offer scenic walks, cycling, and paddleboarding. The area also boasts a cinema, gym, and retail park within walking distance, and Eastbourne town centre is only a short drive away.

For commuters, London is within easy reach by rail, and Gatwick Airport is around an hour’s drive, making Sovereign Harbour a practical choice for those seeking a home by the coast without sacrificing accessibility.

Waterside living here comes in many forms — from luxury penthouse apartments with panoramic marina views to family-sized townhouses with private pontoons. Whether you’re looking for a permanent residence, a weekend retreat, or a rental investment, homes for sale in Sovereign Harbour offer exceptional value for such a prime coastal setting.

With its blend of lifestyle, location, and community, Sovereign Harbour truly offers coastal living at its best.
