New Marina & Restaurant Launch at Bermuda's Fairmont Hamilton Princess
The Princess Marina will be the only full service marina in Bermuda with integrated pump-out facilities, custom metered electrical service and water distribution. Floating docks have high freeboard and are concrete for permanence and stability. Full length fingers offer berth sizes ranging from 30 to 75 feet and are available on annual leases with the option of monthly payments or daily use for those visiting Bermuda. The southern breakwater of the marina is 500 feet and the western breakwater is 300 feet, allowing the marina to accommodate super yachts of 500 feet or more. The average water depth is 40 feet.

The Fairmont Hamilton Princess will provide additional services for guests of the marina, including custom picnic hampers for day trips or on board catering for events and gatherings aboard larger vessels and yachts. A marina concierge will be available to assist guests of the Marina, from providing destination information to assisting with restaurant reservations or island activities. In addition a number of excursions will depart from the marina including Jet Ski, kayak and stand-up paddleboard tours and rentals, Wild Cat 'Round the Island adventures and parasailing. To make arriving in the destination even easier, vessels will be able to clear Bermuda Customs via the Sail Clear System.

Marina guests will also have signing privileges at the hotel's on-site restaurants, including 1609 Bar & Restaurant, a dramatic harbor side restaurant featuring uninterrupted harbor views and open air dining that opened in summer 2014 and the signature restaurant from Marcus Samuelsson, which will debut in May 2015.

In addition to 1609, the hotel offers a variety of activities at The Princess Marina lounge, including "Indulge," a twilight harbor side cigar experience including spirit pairings, live jazz and a special tapas menu. Seasonally, the hotel hosts "Marina Nights" every Friday, converting the harbor side space into a lively atmosphere with lounge seating, full bar, outdoor grill and DJ for guests, locals and boaters to enjoy.
