Marina Review for Harbourgate Marina
Reviewed by: Richard Ross , M/V Almost Perfect, on Jun 14, 2018

LOA: 48'

This is our favourite marina on the Grand Strand. Excellent staff who cater to boaters every need. The marina is in an excellent location, with a new large shopping plaza including groceries and West Marine within walking distance. Two hotels and numerous restaurants also nearby. Excellent floating docks and the high buildings provide protection from strong winds. The marina was dredged in spring 2018 and is now 8 ft at low tide. There is seldom a wake problem since the combination of a slow speed zone and the swing bridge slows everyone. And to top it all off, there is a webcam so you can watch your boat if you are not there. The only downside is noise from the two nearby bridges.

We left the boat here for two months. Excellent floating docks, and Snooky"s restaurant is very good. There is a current affecting the outer docks, but still easy in and out. The only downside is the discourteous boaters who don't slow down when passing this marina.

New floating docks. Fabulous location. Close to the fish market. There is still some construction,so WiFi doesn’t work, but full bars for Sprint. At $2 a foot the price is a bargain.
