Adventure Tips
Check Dock Availability Before Arrival
Depending on your stay length, E docks are ideal for transients, while the West docks serve longer stays with more amenities.
Secure Fenders Properly on Arrival
The large pilings at the T-head docks lack horizontal cushions, so bring extra fenders to protect your boat during docking.
Bring ID and Payment Means
Fuel, power, and pump-out services require onsite transactions—check ahead for payment options to avoid delays.
Plan Pool and Laundry Time During Cooler Hours
The marina pool and laundry are great to use after a hot day; mornings or late afternoons work best to avoid peak heat.
