    Great location and nice docks. Very few amenities - just bathrooms that are open until 9pm and don't open again until 8am. Only electric - no water. Due to above felt price was a little high. Nice restaurant nearby and close to town

    Several marinas in Penetang, but this is the best located dock for access to the town. 50 amp service is available on the outside. Price was OK, $1.50 ft, $1.70 ft with 30 amp, $1.80 with 50 amp. No water hook ups. Be prepared to be bounced around a bit by the yahoos leaving the other marinas without respect. I would recommend stopping here for the 4 hours free dock between the hours of 9 am to 6 pm in the day to re-provision easily, then if you want to stay overnight go to Hindsons or Beacon Bay for a more pleasant (less bouncy) dockage. Kurt the Harbour Master was great. Knowledgeable, helpful and pleasant.
