Plans for an East Devon Marina

Seven years ago, the idea of a marina at Port Royal was seriously mooted: 
Futures Forum: Plans for Port Royal: marina
Futures Forum: Plans for Port Royal: the benefits of a marina

It was not an 'official proposal' so nothing was decided upon - and so it died a death:

A multi-million pound yacht marina could be developed at a Devon town.

The proposed Port Royal Marina in Sidmouth would provide an "ideal base" for exploring the Jurassic coast and the Channel Islands, a developer said.

FWS Carter, which also owns Exmouth Marina, is in discussions with interested parties, but no plans have been submitted...

Proposals for a marina further to the east along the Jurassic Coast have been proposed - as picked up by the East Devon Watch blog:

The future vision for East Devon Marina

This environmentally sensitive scheme will incorporate wind/solar and wave energy as part of an exciting holistic approach to improving the coastal defences for the stunning Jurassic Coast of Devon and Dorset.

The master plan visualises a variety of uses to supplement the proposed 2.5km of new coastal defence works including a new 2000+ berth marina, luxury floating holiday accommodation pods with private berths, water sports and training area and potential fish farm along side retail and leisure space on the central promenade together with a showpiece viewing platform.

Early design research stages are underway to ensure any proposed scheme enhances the local environment as well as providing enhanced coastal defence and economic gains to the area both in the short and long term.
