Richardson Park Marina is situated in Lane County, Oregon, specifically in the coastal city of Florence, where the Siuslaw River meets the Pacific Ocean, providing a sheltered estuary environment amid the rugged beauty of Oregon's central coast. It serves recreational boating and sailing enthusiasts who explore the river's calm waters and venture into the nearby Pacific coastal areas. This location offers a gateway to both inland waterway navigation and the dynamic ocean conditions typical of the Pacific Northwest.
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.
