The marina at Antwerp can provide moorings for yachts up to 30 metres in length along the pontoons, and can accommodate larger yachts against the quay wall. The marina is located in the old port area, only 10 minutes walk from the medieval town centre, which provides many places of interest, restaurants and leisure facilities. Antwerp is also renowned as the world centre of the diamond industry. Antwerp can be used as an ideal base for exploring Flanders and the rest of Europe, or to enter the inland waterway system.
