Amenities & Facilities


12 Boater Reviews

Dataw Marina is a short & scenic ride from the ICW and offers a full service boatyard, dining, dry stack storage, trailer storage, and basic services, including tie-ups for up to 15 boats and lifts to accommodate boats up to 50 tons.

In 2016, the Dataw Island Marina suffered significant damage from Hurricane Matthew. In 2019, the Dataw Island Owners Association purchased the facility and undertook a complete rebuild of the wet slips and an overhaul of the remaining facilities, and it reopened in Spring of 2020.

Onsite, visitors will find the Morgan River Grill, a full service boat yard by Marine Tech, and boat dealer Sea Island Marine. The Morgan River Grill is open Tuesday - Saturday from 11:00AM - 9:00PM, Closed on Sunday and Monday. 

With advance reservations, overnight Marina guests may request use of the two onsite championship golf courses, 8 Har-Tru tennis courts (lit for evening play), croquet, bocce, fitness center, dining, indoor and outdoor pools, and coming soon - pickleball courts. Please inquire with the Harbormaster to plan your visit.
