The Moorings of Carrabelle - The largest marina in
the Florida Panhandle east of Panama City. Full services, a
friendly attitude and well sheltered dockage combined with nearby
good dining and a charming community, make the Moorings a real
winner.
http://www.cquarters.com
C-Quarters Marina - Carrabelle's newest pleasure craft
oriented marina. This facility features 67 wet slips, but only
two to three are set aside for transients. There are also shoreside
showers, an on-site restaurant and a large ship's store. If
you can find space here, C-Quarters can most certainly be considered
as a realistic dockage alternative in Carrabelle.

Miller Marine of Apalachicola - A good fuelling stop
on the Northern Gulf ICW, located in the heart of the old cotton
port of Apalachicola. Minimum transient dockage is available,
but the facility next door, Apalachicola River Inn and Marina,
does offer space for visitors
http://www.apalachicolariverinn.com/
Apalachicola River Inn and Marina - Located on the
principal Apalachicola waterfront, directly adjacent to the
ICW passage.
http://www.deepwatermarina.com

waterfront. Scipio Creek features ultra sheltered, modern dockage,
a well supplied ship's and variety store, plus full repair services.
It's a walk of some five blocks into downtown Apalachicola from
the dockage basin.

Port St. Joe Marina - A new facility located in the
heart of downtown Port St. Joe. This community lies between
Apalachicola and Panama City, in a region that offers virtually
nothing else in the way of pleasure craft facilities. The waters
of St. Joseph Bay, lying about Port St. Joe, are accessible
from the ICW via the deep Gulf County Canal. We have now visited
this facility and can attest to its first class management and
services. It will most definitely be making an appearance in
the next edition of our "Cruising Guide to the Northern
Gulf Coast."

Panama City Municipal Marina - It just doesn't seem
fair that Panama City should have so many top-notch marinas,
but this facility is quite simply one of the best city owned
marinas that we have ever reviewed anytime, anywhere. Dockmaster
Chris and her fine staff simply can't do enough for you. This
is a great spot to spend just a night, or a week resting from
you travels. Great dining within walking distance including
Bayou Joes and The Pasta Peddler!
http://www.baypointmarina.net/
Bay Point Marina - One of the best privately owned
marinas in the Panama City region. This extensive facility is

from the Panama City Inlet channel. Trust us on this one, you
won't go wrong by coiling your lines at Bay Point!
http://www.interoz.com/treasureisland/
Treasure Island Marina - I know it's beginning to sound
like the Panama City Chamber of Commerce paid us off, but here
is the web site for another excellent, friendly marina in PC.
This one is located on the westerly end of Grand Lagoon. The
marina's fuel dock is open 24 hours a day. How's that for full
service!

in Panama City. Flanks the ICW's easterly shores immediately
south of the Hathaway bridge

currently offering transient dockage. Nevertheless, both the
marina's and their web site's focus is on charter fishing
http://www.shalimaryachtbasin.com/
Shalimar Yacht Basin - One of the Fort Walton Beach
marinas offering transient dockage and repair services. SYB
is located on the shores of Garnier Bayou, on the Choctawhatchee
Bay side of the restrictive fixed bridge which crosses this
body of water.
http://www.fwyc.org/

Bay.

yacht clubs in the Florida Panhandle - located near the mouth
of Bayou Chico
http://www.marinamgmt.com/bahia_mar.htm
Bahia Mar of Pensacola - Owned and managed by the same
good people who bring you Seville Harbour and Palafox Pier in
Pensacola (see below). Once upon a day, under different ownership,
we barely even mentioned Bahia Mar in our Cruising Guide
to the Northern Gulf Coast. Now, it is an excellent facility
offering transient dockage and full repairs. Conveniently located
near the mouth of Bayou Chico.
http://www.daybreakmarina.com/
Day Break Marina - a nice, high-dry oriented marina
on Bayou Chico. If you need dry storage in Pensacola, this is
one of the first places to look!

capabilities for both pleasure and commercial craft. Good transient
dockage is also available. Located on Pensacola's Bayou Chico
http://www.psmc.net/
Pensacola Shipyard - A good marina and full service
repair yard on the upstream reaches of Pensacola's Bayou Chico.
Unfortunately, this web site deals almost exclusively with the
firm's commercial (vessel) repair capabilities. Perhaps in the
future, more info will be made available here for pleasurecraft.
http://www.marinamgmt.com/p_pier.htm
Palafox Pier Yacht Harbor - the newest of the three
Pensacola pleasure craft facilities owned and ably run by Marina
Management, Inc. Featuring ultra-modern dockage and a well sheltered
harbor, Palafox Pier is located in the heart of the downtown
Pensacola historic district. When last we saw it, this facility
was still under construction, but it's now fully open for business.
Please let us know something about your experience after berthing
here!
http://www.marinamgmt.com/p_pier.htm
Seville Harbour - The oldest of three first-class pleasure
craft facilities under the Marina Management umbrella in the

Slip, visitors will find plentiful dockage,two on-site restaurants

Pirates Cove Marina - Click here to view the still-under-construction
web site for the funkiest marina on the Northern Gulf Coast.
Pirates Cove guards the ICW's northern flank, just west of the
Florida - Alabama state line. There is a backwater quality to
this marina and repair yard which is rarely seen in cruising
circles this day and time. The on-site restaurant looks as if
it has just stepped out of the 1950's, and they claim to serve
the best cheeseburgers in the world. We think that might be
stretching it a bit, but everyone should visit Pirate's Cove
at least once. You may decide to stop here time and time again,
or you may never again darken its doorway. This is the sort
of place you either love or hate!

http://www.dogrivermarina.com/
Dog River Marina - "THE" marina for larger
power craft between Pensacola and New Orleans. This facility
was named "2000 Marina of the Year" by "Boat
Motor Dealers" magazine. The wet slips host any sort of
pleasure craft, and the warm and knowledgeable welcome is all
one could ask for. The on-site service facilities, including
the redoubtable Middleton Marine, are second to none. Many owners
of Hatteras Yachts make a special trip year after year, just
to have their craft serviced here. With good dining nearby,
there is no reason not to set your course to this absolutely
fabulous facility. By the by, are you beginning to get the idea
that we are impressed with Dog River Marina?

friends at the Pontchartrain Yacht Club whose headquarters flanks
the entrance of Bayou Castine!
