D-Marin, the selection of premium marinas, is delighted to unveil its 2025 calendar of curated summer events. From Italy to Türkiye, this season brings an inspiring line-up of cultural, wellness, and social experiences designed for yacht owners, crew, and local communities.

With more than 50 signature events, including regattas, sunset cinemas, gourmet tastings, wellness retreats, and sustainability initiatives, D-Marin continues to raise the standard for marina experiences that blend leisure, local culture, and refined hospitality.

This year, the guest offering goes even further. Inspired by rising Net Promoter Scores and exceptional customer feedback, D-Marin is launching a series of thoughtful service enhancements across its marinas. From personalised pontoon welcomes and tailored local recommendations to seasonal staff delivering in-boat refreshments and hands-on support, every detail is designed to enrich the customer journey. Select destinations such as Punta Faro, Dalmacija, and Gouvia have gone a step further, offering upgraded amenities including a new swimming pool, playground, and promenade at Gouvia; a curated food corner at Dalmacija; and an expanded fleet of golf carts at Punta Faro to help guests move comfortably around the marina.

Alongside these hospitality enhancements, D-Marin continues to organise a wide range of events designed to bring communities together, celebrate local culture, and create shared memories on shore and at sea.

“At D-Marin, our marinas are far more than just a place to dock; they are gateways to exceptional yachting experiences,” says Dean Smith, CCO of D-Marin. “This year’s calendar and our guest service innovations reflect our ongoing commitment to enhancing every moment spent on shore and at sea.”
