The development of Sochi Grand Marina was an integral part of the City’s preparation programme for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games and was designed most particularly for superyacht moorings. The marina was built in a disused cargo and passenger port that has also been regenerated to include a cruise ship terminal. Planning and strict timetabling was essential in order to meet the deadline of the Games.

All Marinetek pontoon elements were manufactured in St Petersburg and delivered via cargo ship by means of a 7,000 km journey through Russian inland waterways. Installation took two and a half months but was completed one month ahead of schedule. The marina is a bonus to the city and now in use year-round due to the temperate Black Sea climate.
