The marina lies between Riverside Drive and the Intracoastal Waterway. Docks hold sailboats, motorboats, and smaller vessels stacked on racks above the water. Masts stand above the roofs along the shore. Ropes and fenders press boats against the pilings.
Hoses coil near the dock edge. Coolers and life jackets rest beside rental carts. The bait-and-tackle shop faces the slips. Kayaks and small boats fill gaps between racks and fences. Signs point to restrooms, close off certain docks, and warn about manatees in the channel.
Near the shore, boats crowd the slips. Farther out, the docks open toward the channel. Water moves between hulls and pilings. Some boats rock against their lines. Past the last slip, the water widens into the Intracoastal.
