    This marina has a wonderful harbormaster Craig. He provided good guidance with our approach and the 6 foot draft of our boat made it through the channel. Craig helped us with our pump out and tie up at the dock. We took the deepest slip which is 6 feet deep at low tide and directly in front of the Mallard restaurant. Roomy bathrooms and free laundry with nice washer/dryer.
    Craig was friendly and helpful when we reached him by phone but only 4 stars since he never replied to any of our numerous messages.

  • Marina Review for Harbor Island Marina

    Harbor Island Marina was an easy in and out marina. Lenny promptly return our call and helped us with the lines when docking. He also helped us find a knowledgable local mechanic for an issue we were having with our engine. The docks are not in great shape and the marina no longer sells fuel. The bathrooms are servicable but up a flight of steps and not air conditioned so they can be hot. Easy walking distance into town but the Charles Street Brasserie restaurant is right at the end of the dock and they serve fabulous food and drinks so no need to eat elsewhere. Calvert Marine Museum is definitely worth a visit and is about 1 mile walk from the marina.
