Cowes Yacht Haven (the spiritual home of Cowes Week) is keeping its 'back to roots' ethos and will be presenting a boat-crew and family-friendly offering for this year's Cowes Week.

The main hospitality area, which remains open to all from 1000hrs to 2300hrs, is easily accessible from Red Funnel's Red Jet terminal and Cowes High Street.

Once inside guests will find the MUSTO Sailors' Bar overlooking the marina and the Solent beyond. The North-wall, that wraps around the marina gives the perfect vantage point to watch the boats coming and going and preparing for their racing.

A small stage will host our evening musical entertainment and food from a variety of Island traders will be available each day.
