One of our favorite places to stop in NJ. It always seems something goes wrong with the boat and we always seem to end up here. This trip was no different as our Port Engine would not come online causing a short 2 hour delay but as always help was not that far away.
The Marina staff is very helpful getting us into a slip this visit vs a side 2 tie up. Wind & current were strong but we made it.
There are several places to eat within walking distance to choose from depending upon your taste. We always seem to end up at the Lobster House.
The marina has a great restaurant & gift shop and they try to always match West Marine prices on boat supplies.
I’ve been a customer here for over 25 years and highly recommend SJMView location on the Waterway Guide Explorer

This is a must stop destination for out trips between NJ and FL. The staff is more than accommodating and extremely knowledgeable regarding the currents and always assist with the docking & tie up. The restaurant offers a variety of great food and Happy Hour offers $2 off most popular drinks.
The radio is being passed from father to son as Tom is getting ready to maybe retire and allow Steven to take over the new watch as Dockmaster. We have been stopping here for years and have never been disappointedView location on the Waterway Guide Explorer

We enjoyed our night at Coinjock after being away for almost 4 years. Not much has changed but we were advised to call ahead to book our dockage as it was a Saturday night and the place gets packed real fast. The restaurant added outside seating under a huge tent since we were there last but we enjoy eating at the bar where we always seem to meet new people. The Prime Rib 32 oz was my menu item of choice and I will be enjoying prime rib sandwiches for the next few days. We took on fuel as it was down at the $3 per gallon price - as always the staff is still as great as ever.

'We have visited Beaufort Docks on almost every trip both North & Southbound between Atlantic City and our home in Florida. It is a great place to spend the night but the WiFi sucks if you need to get any work done on the computer. I for one, can do without work when I am enjoying myself at the docks but sometimes it is difficult when critical things must be done online. There are plenty of great restaurants to visit within walking distance and the staff has always been more then helpful. We topped off the tanks at $3.07 per gallon Vs the $3.69 per gallon at our last fuel fill in Myrtle Beach area. I would strongly recommend the new restaurant right at the end of the bar, they make great drinks and the pizza is coal fired.

We have stayed here twice now and it is a great place. On this trip we elected to back track due to the fact that many of the area marinas had limited availability (5/19/2021) for transient boaters due to the hurricane damage of last year. Very quiet and relaxing marina. The restaurant was closed due to a kitchen fire and is reported to reopen in about two months. .
