Nice marina with friendly employees but has a wicked current so docking and leaving should be at slack tide. Someone is usually around to help. Very pet friendly, nice showers with towels, 1 washer and 1 dryer so one load at a time. Be aware there is no pump out. Being a hotel they have a happy hour every day with
hors d'oeuvre for free but pay for drinks. Easy walk to Old St Augustine but more peaceful.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer

A great location to watch 4th of July fireworks. Above average shower and laundry facilities, as well as, pool and lounging areas because of association with the hotel. It is more dock access than marina per se. They do not monitor VHF, do not have fuel or pump out, and do not have dock hands. There is a ripping current for out going tides, so slack or incoming tide is much easier for docking.

The marina is in a great location, on the SE side of Bridge of Lions. Clean facilities and nice staff. They provide towels in the boater showers as well.
Note that they do not monitor the VHF, call on the phone or make reservations using Dockwa.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer
