Rooted in Plymouth's Rich Maritime Heritage

Every great fishing story begins with the right equipment, expert knowledge, and a deep respect for the sea. For over four decades, Marina Lure has been woven into the fabric of Plymouth's bustling waterfront, growing from a humble tackle shop into the comprehensive marine supply centre it is today.

Our journey began amidst the vibrant maritime traditions of Plymouth, carrying forward a legacy of passion for the sea.

From our founding days, deeply connected to Plymouth's storied fishing tradition, we've navigated the evolving needs of Devon's fishing and boating community. Key milestones mark our evolution, from pioneering early marine electronics offerings to championing sustainable fishing practices long before they were mainstream. Our vision for the future remains steadfast: to foster a thriving, sustainable maritime leisure industry while honouring Plymouth's historic role as England's premier naval and fishing port. Marina Lure combines generations of maritime knowledge with modern innovation, serving Plymouth's community with unmatched expertise and dedication.
