Opened in May 2009 the $50 million Marina with a capacity for 623 berthed yachts and 600 yachts in dry dock, a yacht lift, shopping centre, supermarkets, yacht equipment shops, a fitness centre and sports facilities, swimming pool, barks, a petrol station, restaurants and a cultural centre. The Marina is seen to many as the future of Altinkum. During the summer months the empty dry dock is used for concerts for all age groups, free to all the people in the local resort. Both the Yacht Club with lovely infinity swimming pool and restaurant and bar area, and beach club, both housed in the marina complex are open to the general public at a very reasonable cost, well worth a visit. More designer shops are moving into the marina area, and there is planning permissions currently in process for five 5 star hotels in this area, and a golf course. Again 2012 will host several sailing regattas, and one day it is expected to host a Sailing Federation Cup race.
