Guide

Approach and anchoring

Reached from Chesapeake Bay through the Back River and a dredged approach channel into a manmade harbour. Depths suit boats drawing up to 2 m. The basin sits on a 12-acre site and is well sheltered from open-water swell.

Practical

68 wet berths on fixed and floating pontoons, taking boats up to 45 ft, plus 34 covered dry-storage spaces. Full boatyard with certified technicians, pump-out station and a ship store. Reports suggest the fuel berth is not always in service, so confirm with the marina before arrival.

Ashore

Fox Hill is a residential corner of Hampton with limited shops within walking distance. Grandview Nature Park, a stretch of dune and salt marsh on the bay shore, lies about 4 km away by road.
