SAFETY WARNING: Riding Rocks Marina in San Salvador is very very unsafe in a surge (which happened to us twice)
They do not answer the phone. They do not answer a radio call (when we did check in we found they only listen to Channel 6). We came in before the last blow and were warned by fishermen to leave quickly before the westerly blow or we would snap ropes and break pilings so we did. We came back as there was no westerly, but the surge was still bad from the wrap around waves coming from the north. My husband and myself attempted to tie up all by ourselves (no dock hands or Harbour master to be found) and the surge is awful, stressing our lines terribly and the docks and pilings are moving with our boat's weight. We did have extra lines as needed and they were deployed, as well as all our fenders. We destroyed 3 of our lines due to Chaffing. Thank goodness my husband double tied most lines. We left when the sun rose. I hear it can be nice in perfect seas but that was not our case both times trying.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer

Still rebuilding from Dorian but fighting hard. This marina and staff are wonderful and very accommodating. Newly built docks absolutely gorgeous. Hope to see them thrive more in the future.

Everything the marina had to offer since it's distruction in Hurricane Dorian was nice. The entrance to the marina was a little shallow but could be navigated easily at high tide. If you are looking to rent a golf cart be prepared to make reservations months in advance. The restaurant on site had fantastic food but was only open at select times.

Loving this Marina. We keep our boat here all the time. Staff is very nice and helpful. Great location to Ft Pierce inlet for fishing or just cruising.

We had our boat there for 6 months. The public restrooms are not taken care of. There is no pump out. We are glad we left.”
