Before there was Sea Pines, there was Palmetto Bay Marina, opened in 1959. The marina’s free-spirited Key West ambiance makes it a popular all-day destination. Water activities, restaurants, and shops will keep folks of all ages and interests busy from morning to night.
Start your day here by joining a narrated dolphin and nature tour by kayak or stand-up paddleboard, or rent a boat or creek skiff to explore on your own. The adventuresome types will want to try jet skiing or hopping on a creek cat for the ultimate in small-boat experiences. The young ones will enjoy an adventure aboard a pirate ship in search of lost treasure.
Now you can eat! Between three restaurants (all with both indoor and outdoor dining areas), you can find a meal from sun-up to moon set. The central courtyard features two outdoor bars for spirited libations. The atmosphere is made even more remarkable by the splendid views across the bustling waterway of Broad Creek to the mansions of Spanish Wells.
If you like to shop, you’ll find men’s and women’s resort wear, accents for your home, T-shirts, souvenirs, and snacks to take on your nature tour. Buy jewelry and art by local artisans.
The marina’s location near the mouth of Broad Creek gives you quick access to Calibogue Sound and the Atlantic Ocean, something very important to those interested in chartering one of their fishing boats. The marina is located at 86 Helmsman Way at the end of the Cross Island Expressway.
