What people say about us

Great Marina! Plenty of space to dock up for lunch/dinner. Great helpers around the pier to help you tie up. Yes, they have fuel available! There’s some great fishing all along the pier. We’ve caught multiple 22″ spot tails. The staff will even help you find the secret honey spot and will supply live bait.”

Great stop over… This Marina has full fuel service , a fully operational boat yard with 50 ton travel lift and 25 ton fork lift capabilities , and a great Restaurant just steps away from the pier head . A new gem for our travels ; we’ll be back and also check out the adjacent award winning Dataw Island golf, tennis and residential community right next to the marina..”
