I can't recommend this marina highly enough. I was having trouble, my boat was stranded at another marina and I was beside myself. I was driving around looking for a new place to keep it and haul it when I stumbled across Port Kinsale. Charlie, the manager, came buzzing up right away and quickly had everything arranged, right up to sending Jeff and Mike (the mechanics) off in a runabout to retrieve my boat. Charlie was quite helpful, going so far as to advise me of other local marinas that might be a more economical choice for a slip for a 22' sailboat. In the end, however, I have decided to keep my boat at Port Kinsale for next summer as the amenities are really nice. Having the option of eating in a nice restaurant, getting a drink at the bar, having access to a pool, having rooms in the B&B onsite available for guests who don't want to sleep aboard, power and wifi at the dock, etc. all mean that I'll have other things to do if the weather turns out to not be quite what was forecast after I made a 3 hour drive to get there. If you are just looking for a place to keep your boat there are more economical options. If you want full service and amenities, I think you will enjoy this marina. If you need work done, they post their rate sheet right on their website so you can compare. I like that. It's a beautiful place and in excellent repair. The people couldn't be nicer. I'm happy.

Summer of 2008 our yacht club traveled to Port Kinsale Marina. We had over 25 boats and more than 60 people. The folks at Port Kinsale went above and beyond to accomodate our crowd. The marina was clean, helpful and most of all a beautiful place! The restaurant was excellent - the best Sunday brunch anywhere. The Bed and Breakfast, along with the cabins were perfect for those in our group that came by land. This is by far one of the best marina's along the Northern Neck. No doubt that our trip itinerary has Port Kinsale once again this season! You will not be disappointed!
