Medium marina with linear docks along a protected shoreline and adjacent surface parking area with scattered vehicles.
St. Clair Shores marina lies along the western shore of Lake St. Clair in southeastern Michigan, within the greater Detroit metropolitan region. The facility fronts the broad, shallow freshwater lake that links Lake Huron to the Detroit River and ultimately Lake Erie. It accommodates recreational powerboating, sailing, and angling throughout the navigable waters of Lake St. Clair and its connecting channels.
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.
