South Coast Boat Show 2025

9th - 11th May 2025   -   Ocean Village Marina, Southampton

Southampton gears up for another action-packed event as the South Coast Boat Show returns to kick off the British yachting calendar.

Showcasing a range of yachts in the 6m to 20m (20ft to 60ft) market, the South Coast Boat Show is an ideal place to see some of the latest production yachts from well known British and International shipyards. 

Putting on an eclectic display of both motor yachts and sailing boats around the pontoons of the Ocean Village Marina, this year's event is set to pan over three days and will offer all yachting enthusiasts and prospective owners the chance to get up close to some great entry-level models, as well as some best sellers that have already made their name in the industry.

Compared to a lot of other boat shows, this particular event is known for being more laid-back, creating an inviting atmosphere for those who prefer a quieter ambience and more time for each viewing around the docks.

Hosting its inaugural edition in 2019, many big-name shipyards have been known to attend the event, including British brands Sunseeker and Princess.

With around 70 yachts on display at the event, there will be opportunities to book sea trials, speak to the relevant representatives at each stand, and of course, buy a yacht that meets all your requirements.

Plus, like all good boat shows, around the grounds there's a wide range of exhibitors with nautical gadgets and merchandise set to complete any yachting lifestyle package.
