Medium-sized marina with multiple docks full of boats adjacent to a highway bridge, featuring a medium surface parking lot with numerous vehicles and some small buildings nearby.
Nestled on the sparkling deep waters of the St. Lucie river in Stuart, the new 198 slip marina with fuel dock and two pump-outs offers 69 moorings as well as showers, laundry, a marine store, and a new restaurant, “sailor’s return.” The marina features internet access, concierge service, access to all yacht services and more.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
