    Stayed here one night while making our way north to Charleston. Aaron the dock master was very helpful in getting us tied off and settled in. The marina was easy to get into and was pretty sheltered. Clean restroom and shower facilities. The wooden floating docks are a bit rough in spots so make sure to wear shoes.

    We just wrapped up spending 2 weeks at IGY Savannah Harbor Marina. This is a brand new, upscale marina. At the time of this writing, the fuel dock was not in service but everything else was. This was hands down one of the nicest marinas we've ever stayed at. The facilities and amenities were top notch and the staff were amazing! With a short walk to the free and dog friendly ferries, you're in historic downtown Savannah in no time. We will definitely stay here again the next time we visit Savannah.

    We stayed here for 3 nights as we waited out some weather. It's a small, no frills city dock with power, water and pump outs. Dan the dock master was great, and the proximity to the quaint little town of Darien was great. For such a small town there are several great restaurants, brew pubs and shops. This wound up being a delightful little side trip. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is lack of restroom and trash facilities.

    Stayed here 2 nights as we were making our way north. The marina is massive. The slips in south basin are all floating and north basin is fixed. Multiple laundry and shower facilities are located close to each of the secured docks and access is controlled via keycard. Clearly a ton of long term liveaboard residents, but everyone was super friendly. Easy walking distance to a bunch of restaurants as you head north on Beach St. The marina is super close to a minor league ballpark, but sadly they were playing away while we were there.

    Nice little, older fixed dock marina with helpful staff as well as top notch laundry and shower facilities. Great location and super walkable to a ton of restaurants and bars. I wish we would have stayed another night to spend more time exploring Cocoa.

    Fantastic Marina in downtown Fort Pierce. While we stayed on the floating docks, it does also have fixed. Great security and the laundry and restroom facilities are more than adequate. Incredibly competitive diesel fuel pricing and super walkable to a ton of great restaurants and bars. Check out the nearby E.A. Backus art museum and the Navy Seal museum is worth the short uber drive.

    Nice little fixed dock marina as we were making our way east to cross Lake O. Great trails along the river for dog walking. Clean restrooms. Perfect for an overnight stopover before crossing the lake.

    Small marina with fixed dock. It would get a little rocky at times, but I suspect that had more to do to our proximity to the entrance into the marina. The laundry and shower facilities were nice and the staff was top notch and super accommodating. Check out the Edison Ford winter estates while you are there.
