Shepards Wharf Marina sits on the west bank of the River Medina in the heart of Cowes, Isle of Wight, just south of Cowes Yacht Haven and roughly 200 metres north of the Cowes Chain Ferry crossing.

It is the second and smaller of the two main marinas fronting the town, with capacity for around 130 visiting boats alongside 40 resident berth holders.

Approaching from the Solent, vessels enter the River Medina and find the marina on the west side, shortly before the chain ferry narrows.

The marina caters to yacht racing events, rallies, cruising sailors, and powerboaters, and specialises in dry sailing packages for day-class yachts, RIBs, motorboats, and trailered keelboats.

It offers extensive year-round dry storage along with mobile crane, boat lifting, and mast-stepping services. Contact is via VHF Channel 80, call sign "Shepards Marina," or by phone on 01983 297821.
