Marina vending machines in Gibraltar.
Yachts arrive in Gibraltar at all hours, often after a long passage, and the first thing crews want is a cold drink and a few basics. A machine at your marina is open when they tie up.

For crews arriving at any hour
Gibraltar sits at the entrance to the Mediterranean, so its marinas see a steady flow of yachts stopping on the way in or out, as well as boats that stay for the season. Ocean Village and Marina Bay, Queensway Quay and Mid Harbour at Coaling Island all have berth holders, visiting crews and guests coming and going.
A crew that arrives after dark may find the marina office closed and the shops shut. A machine near the pontoons gives them water, a soft drink and something to eat straight away, along with the basics they ran out of at sea.
Summer is the busiest time, with more visiting yachts, more guests aboard and long evenings on the pontoons.
Toiletries for life on board
Space on a boat is tight, and things run out. Marina machines can stock travel-size shampoo, shower gel, deodorant, shaving gel, dental kits and hand cream, which makes sense next to a shower block or laundry room.
Laundry rooms are a good example. People hang around while the machines run, and a drink and a snack make the wait go quicker.
Crews come from all over the world, so the machine is card-only and takes contactless cards and phone payments. Nobody needs to find pounds before they can buy a drink.
Built for the waterfront
Machines can go indoors or outside. On a quay or pontoon we look for power and shelter from sun, wind and spray, and we check the spot on a free site visit.
Most marinas go on our Standard plan: a one-off installation fee and no monthly fee. Our local team does the installing, restocking and repairs. Commercial quays and shipyards have their own page: port and shipyard vending.
If your marina also has a boatyard or repair business, a second machine can go where the yard team takes its breaks.
- Open when the marina office isn't
- Travel toiletries for crews
- Indoor or waterfront machines
- Restocked by our local team
