Donnelly Yacht Center & Marina

About

Located on Savannah’s scenic Wilmington Island, Donnelly Yacht Center and Marina offers one of coastal Georgia’s most capable, convenient, and fully serviced deepwater facilities. Spanning two adjacent waterfront properties at 135 and 119 Johnny Mercer Boulevard, our marina provides nearly 3,000 linear feet of continuous side‑to‑dock mooring along Turners Creek, with an impressive 20‑foot average depth at low tide and the ability to accommodate vessels up to 120 feet.

In 2026, Donnelly Yacht Center proudly expanded with a newly developed facility at 119 Johnny Mercer Boulevard, adding modern infrastructure, expanded workspace, and enhanced customer amenities. This new site strengthens our position as one of the region’s premier full‑service marinas, supporting both large‑vessel dockage and professional marine repair operations.

Our docks are engineered for reliability and flexibility, featuring 30A, 50A, and 100A shore power, dockside freshwater, and dockside waste pump‑out. Diesel and gasoline are located just 50 yards away, ensuring quick and easy refueling for transient and long‑term guests.

Onshore amenities include climate‑controlled private restrooms, deluxe showers, and an attached laundry area, all secured with keypad access. Boaters can relax at our on‑site bar and lounge, a welcoming social space offering drinks, and a comfortable atmosphere overlooking the water.

Security and convenience are central to the Donnelly experience. The marina features camera monitoring, a private coded gate, and plenty of on‑site parking. A grocery store and pharmacy border the property, while hardware stores, restaurants, bars, medical facilities, and additional services are all located within one mile.

As a full‑service marina, Donnelly Yacht Center and Marina provides full‑scope vessel care and repair, including electrical systems, refrigeration, full diesel service, and professional absentee‑owner care. Our haul‑out railway accommodates vessels up to 80 feet, with expertise in wide‑beam vessels up to 22 feet, making us a preferred destination for catamarans, commercial craft, and large yachts requiring professional maintenance. An on‑site yacht sales office provides brokerage and sales support directly at the marina.

Situated north of the traditional hurricane zone, our Turners Creek location offers a naturally protected setting favored by seasonal and long‑term boaters. And with both Historic Savannah and Savannah Beach just 15 minutes away, guests enjoy the perfect balance of quiet riverfront dockage and easy access to the region’s most popular destinations.

Whether you’re stopping in for a night, seeking a secure seasonal home, or looking for a full‑service facility for larger vessels, Donnelly Yacht Center and Marina delivers deepwater capability, modern amenities, professional marine services, and the welcoming charm of coastal Georgia.
