Henricus Dock is a marina located in Chesterfield County, Virginia, along the James River, a tidal estuary that flows into the Chesapeake Bay and connects to the Atlantic Ocean, providing a scenic and historically rich setting in the southeastern United States. This marina serves recreational boating enthusiasts, including those interested in sailing and fishing on the James River's navigable waters. Its position in the coastal plain region makes it ideal for exploring the river's diverse ecosystems and nearby historic sites.
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.
