Marina Review for Farley State Marina at Golden Nugget Casino & Hotel

Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 40'

Rating: 3

Our stay here was a good one, due to the easy access docks & the nice amenities (pool, laundry, showers). The biggest and worst issue was getting into the Atlantic City channel in the dark. We arrived at 4:30am after a 130mile trip from the North. Never been here before, and our chart plotter was a great help, but rain & fog didn't help. Either did NO channel markers from the North. Not one red & green to the main channel. Just a wall of neon lights. Very confusing. So beware.
Once we found it, it was fine to get to the marina. The gas dock was a big issue the next morn, no one around, hoses everywhere. A fellow started filling his sailboat & the hose had a hole in it. Diesel fuel all over his cockpit & in the ocean.
Anyway, it was a memorable experience and the live Reggae band on the dock bar was terrific. Met some really neat people here too.
