New Islington Marina

New Islington Marina sits on the Rochdale Canal in Manchester's Northern Quarter, off Old Mill Street (M4 6EA).

It comprises two basins: the larger connects to the Rochdale Canal and features floating pontoons with permanent residential moorings, while the smaller basin connects to the Ashton Canal. Together the basins offer around 49 licensed moorings.

The Rochdale Canal basin adjoins Cotton Field Park and serves as an access point for boaters travelling the canal.

Canal & River Trust has run a visitor moorings trial nearby, allowing passing boaters to stop and reach city-centre amenities with a three-day mooring limit.

The marina has been a focal point of the wider New Islington regeneration scheme, and a public realm refurbishment was completed around the site in 2019.
