Residential complex with integrated marina featuring multiple finger docks on a lake, surrounded by ample striped surface parking lots amid townhomes.
Castle Marina is located in Chester, Maryland, on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, an expansive estuary that forms part of the Atlantic Coast's inland waterways. This marina serves recreational sailors and boaters who navigate the Chesapeake Bay's calm waters, ideal for activities like cruising and fishing in this historically significant mid-Atlantic region. Its position near the Bay Bridge provides access to both the bay and nearby coastal areas.
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.
