Latest news

Shelter Bay Marina was dredged in the spring of 2023 and our dock replacement project is now complete as well. Sail on in during a minus tide with no grounding concerns! Come check out our beautiful marina.

Please note that, as part of our recent dock upgrades, all power pedestals were replaced with ELCI-compliant circuits. If your boat's electrical system is not in compliance it's possible you won't be able to connect to power on our docks. Contact the Shelter Bay Harbormaster at (360) 333-2952 for more information.

Shelter Bay Marina is currently operating at 100% occupancy so Shelter Bay Yacht Club is not able to offer a dedicated reciprocal dock. We offer reciprocal moorage to our guests by making private slips available whenever SBYC members consent to their use while away cruising. Call the SBYC Reciprocal Hotline at (360) 610-7226 to inquire about current slip availability. You may leave a message, or contact us by text message to (360) 610-7226 or by email to reciprocal@shelterbayyachtclub.org.

Transient (non-reciprocal) moorage is occasionally available for in the Shelter Bay marina for a nightly fee. Please call the Shelter Bay Community office at (360) 466-3805 for rates and details.
