Medium-sized marina with extensive piers and slips along a bay shoreline, featuring a medium surface parking lot with numerous vehicles parked near residential areas.
Locust Point Yacht Club is a marina situated in Mamaroneck, New York, along the shores of the Long Island Sound, which forms part of the Atlantic Coast's intricate network of bays and inlets in the New York metropolitan area. This geographic setting offers a protected, estuarine environment ideal for boating, with easy access to the broader Atlantic Ocean via the East River and surrounding waterways. The club serves recreational sailors and boaters, focusing on activities in the relatively sheltered waters of the Long Island Sound, a popular region for coastal cruising and day sailing.
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.
