    This was a great marina. When we arrived they met us at the dock and welcomed us to the marina. Provided all the information necessary about bathroom codes, showers, restaurants near the marina. We walked to Tubby's and had fish tacos and a cold beer. We also went in River Supply and picked up an anchor wash down hose. Showers and bathrooms were clean. The staff were extremely welcoming and southern hospitality was plenty.

    We stopped at Bahai Bleu for a week to explore the Savannah area and do some boat work. Hinckley Marine services is .8 miles away, and River Supply marine store is within a 5-minute walk of the marina. River Supply is a GREAT marine hardware store that specializes in marine supplies, not just sunglasses and clothes (although they did have a little bit of that). We walked to River Supply a few times, both to buy parts and browse. Tubby's is a great restaurant within a 10-minute walk from the marina. The marina was very clean with a great laundry facility and nice amenity touches like a Trager grill and fire pit. We plan to return to Bahai Bleu on our next pass along the GA coast.

    Nice Marina. Docks are in good shape and wide. Easy access on the ICW, and not much boat action so no bouncing, although we stayed on weekdays, so weekends may be different.
    Staff was friendly and helped us get tied up without a hitch.
    Restrooms/shower/laundry were all clean. Only hitch was they are up a steep set of stairs which could be a problem for some.
    Close to Savannah, so an easy Uber ride into town to do some sightseeing.
    Would not have a problem staying here again.

    No pump out, no discount on diesel fuel, no free laundry. Internet works well.

    Nice location, great staff, Becca was awesome. We left our boat here for one month and it was well taken care of. Only single suggestion is that the bathrooms could do with a daily cleaning. But we will go back.

    Very nice marina and very nice people. A really nice area with several restaurants. The staff was very helpful and were waiting for us when we were docking. Great places to walk your dog including a little park just down the street.

    We arrived just before slack tide (low). Very easy to dock boat. We appreciated not being on the outer finger exposed to the ICW traffic. Becca was waiting to catch our lines when we arrived. She was so nice! She checked us in and brought a welcome brochure with bathroom codes and a list of nearby restaurants. We chose Tubby Tanks - the Fish & Grits and the fried asparagus were divine! The bathrooms and showers were amazing. Super clean and roomy.

    The staff is great. The floating docks and facilities are fantastic. Three restaurants within walking distance (go to Tortuga's for the GA blackened shrimp with Apricot, Onion, Jalapeño chutney… DELICIOUS!). Walk to grocery stores or take An Uber to downtown Savannah for $12. Shops, restaurants, sights galore!

    We were caught in some strong winds and were early by a day, and after hours. Harbor Master was accomidating, as we were weather beaten. The staff was friendly and helpful finding groceries and shipping for some parts needing to be shipped. On ICW, but in a no wake zone, so really didn't have issues with rocking. Internet worked great, and the bathrooms were clean and looked fairly new. I would come back.

    We spent 3 nights here and loved it! The restrooms and laundry facilities are immaculate and the staff is friendly and courteous. There are restaurants within walking distance and a really well stocked marine store across the street. We took an Uber into the City Market and River Front in Savannah and it was easy and convenient.

    Stayed here for 4 nights in early December 2020. Great office staff and dock hands. Quiet place with very nice docks, showers & restrooms. Several good restaurants and a great marine supply store within walking distance.

    I stayed here for several nights due to bad weather (it’s been a tough fall). The facilities are good and staff are very helpful. As a Safe Harbor customer in New England we get free nights and fuel discounts at other Safe Harbor facilities. The office staff here were very helpful with this. Good restaurants nearby and several others that will deliver to the marina parking lot. I’d go back again if passing through.
