Medium-sized marina with multiple piers and slips along a bay shoreline, featuring a small building but no visible parking lot or vehicles.
The Marina at Owens Landing is situated in Perryville, Maryland, along the Susquehanna River's northern bank, just upstream from where it meets the Chesapeake Bay, a major estuary on the Atlantic Coast. This location provides access to both the river's calmer waters and the broader Chesapeake Bay, catering to recreational boating and sailing activities in this historic Mid-Atlantic region. It serves boaters interested in exploring the bay's intricate network of waterways, including tidal rivers and open bay 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.
