Medium-sized marina with multiple docks full of boats along a river channel, featuring a medium surface parking lot with several vehicles parked near buildings and surrounded by wooded areas.
Jordan Marina is located in Gloucester Point, Virginia, on the northern shore of the York River where it flows into the Chesapeake Bay, a major estuary along the Atlantic Coast. This setting provides access to both the protected waters of the river and the broader Chesapeake Bay region, making it suitable for recreational boating and sailing in a mix of estuarine and coastal environments. As part of the Hampton Roads area, it caters to boaters navigating the historic waterways of southeastern Virginia.
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.
