The marina is in a sheltered area off the canal so we did not have to worry about waves while docked. Not sure if they only have one dock for transient visitors behind the fuel dock....we were between 2 other large boats with barely any wiggle room. Otherwise, the dock was in relatively good condition, and the staff was very helpful. Watching the Navy right next to us training on their boats was very cool!

We were planning on staying one day to hide out from a blow, but ended up finding a mechanical issue (blown raw water pump) and couldn't transit the canal as planned until it was fixed. We had to order parts, wait for UPS, stay two extra nights, move slips, and generally just became a pretty high-maintenance tenant. Through it all, the folks at Sandwich were extremely helpful and accommodating, and if we had to be broken down, I'd say it was a great place to be broken down. Good food nearby, nice area for walking the dog along the canal and the beach, and good clean facilities. Thanks everyone at Sandwich for all your help!

This is our second time here as a stopover between Martha's Vineyard/Cuddyhunk and Boston. Transient slip is easy to get to and dockhands come out to help and orient you to the marina. It is a little tight with a sailboat, but manageable as long as you watch the wind and current. Best bathroom and shower facilities I've seen at a marina. A couple of good restaurants within 5 min walk. Grocery store and liquor store within 10-15 minute walk. Called harbormaster (runs marina) when a loud alarm was going off on a fishing vessel on our dock. They came right out to investigate and resolve. The gentleman at the fuel dock has an excellent ear and pumps your gas for you. The two times we fueled there the past two years he never spilled a drop.

Stayed two nights, was excellent. Good communication and assistance getting to dock. Lots of staff around to help with anything. Good facilities and close (5-10 min) walk to two restaurants, fish market, grocery, hardware stores. Nice bike path and beach in walking distance as well. If you are close to the end of the dock, you will get some bumps early in the morning from commercial and early boaters from the nearby ramp which is busy on a nice weekend. Overall great.

The marina is on the Cape Cod canal, near the Cape Cod Bay end, and just next door to the Sandwich power plant. It is well protected so we had no motion of the boat overnight. There is a good spot to walk the dog, and it has two restaurants. The one we went to was really jumpin' but they found a spot for us. The place also sells fuel. We bought 400 gallons of Diesel at a price that is not out of line with other places. (Still expensive). The folks there were friendly and helpful.

Awful. No navigational aids of any sort to help boaters arriving at night. Property is stacked with fishermen shining lights into your eyes which further hinders navigation. Was assigned to a dock that already had a boat on it and had approximately half the length left required to safely tie up. Late shift dock master put us on a fishing dock full of seagull feces and a hose full of holes. Will definitely skip this marina next time I'm going through the canal.

We loved the experience. Our friends from the Great Blue Hill Sail & Power Squadron (America's Boating Club) had our end of summer rendezvous there and fun was had by all. It had been about 10 years since I last visited Sandwich Marina and I had forgotten how great it was. Not only the marina (first class) but the surrounding area of Sandwich. Lots of fun things to do, including watching the tortoises (yes really) at the local ice cream shop. Can't wait to go back. In case you are interested, I put a YouTube video together of the event if you are curious. All the best, Jim Andersen (a big fan of Dockwa!!). I have a Youtube Channel called CatBoat Adventures and this will be one of my upcoming videos. http://bit.ly/SandwichRendezvous

Sandwich Marina is a decent place to stop when entering or leaving the Cape Cod canal, but it wouldn’t be my first choice on my next trip. We had a reservation at the normal transient dock but apparently the previous occupant broke down and couldn’t leave. The marina then reassigned us to a slip at the far end of a dock full of lobster boats. It wouldn’t have been bad except that the amount of seagull poop on the dock was disgusting. Given the hot weather, it smelled pretty bad. Shore power proved to be a problem as well. It took several attempts, with no help from the dockhand who met us, to successfully connect the first time. Then early in the morning, power to the whole marina was lost for nearly an hour. Perhaps not their fault, but frustrating, none the less. Then heads and showers were clean and well equipped. The final frustration for me came when I wanted to pump my holding tank and buy some fuel as I left to transit the canal. There was a constant stream of other customers and I couldn’t reach the dock attendant by radio to get a place in line. After nearly an hour waiting, I finally gave up without completing either of those tasks.

A pretty good place to hang after or before passing thru the Canal. Only 2 large restaurant options for dinner, and nothing really around. We were on the outermost dock (H) near the entrance, a very long walk to bathroom.. The laundry was Out of Order (we needed it), And the guy at the Gas Dock was a bit too hasty untie-ing us off the dock (I didn't tell him to cast off the lines, and when I looked back, we had no lines on - barely got my engines going....ouch) He was trying to accommodate a couple of bigger boats trying to get in to the gas dock, but would have been better to ask me if I was ready to push off. We were only on the dock for about 5 minutes, so not like we were dilly-dallying.

Sandwich is a great place to say for a stopover or quick getaway. Staff are helpful with tie up and fuel. It’s an active marina during the day, but it quiets down at night. There are Some nice amenities are close by. Hit up “seafood sams” if you need a good fried fix and then walk the canal paths. Goto the Fisherman’s View for excellent Sushi and the fish market. There’s a grocery and other provisions a short walk away. Get Shipwrecks ice cream. Nice people on the docks that welcome transients. Definitely recommend. The staff also practice social distancing. Cheers.

We weathered TS Elsa (July 2021) here and it was the perfect spot. Great marina accommodations - fuel, pump out, water, good docks, ice at a good price, clean heads with good showers. Plus the location is an easy walk to at least 5 restaurants at varying price points (easy pizza to nice night out), ice cream, a CVS, Stop&Shop for re-provisioning and more. Would 100% return, well worth the price.

Firstly, this marina staff is so helpful and communicative. They’re proactive about checking in about arrival times and they were waiting at the dock to help with the lines. We were happy with our slip location, on G dock, right across from a local restaurant, The Pilot House, where we enjoyed an excellent dinner. Bathrooms were a pretty walk away with newly paved paths. Construction also seemed new. We will be back.

The staff were great; restaurants very close by. Walking distance to town and the glass museum. Bathrooms were clean, but there is only one shower per gender and the hot water goes fast.

Mick, Sam, Rick, and all of the marina crew are A+++! With our boat only two weeks in our possession, we expected a trouble free vacation. Our diesel fuel line thought otherwise. Mick helped us out, called his own mechanic, and we were ready to go the next day... but the weather was not. They found room for us to stay 2 more days and were incredibly accommodating. We’ll see them many times over the coming years and are grateful for their hospitality! Plus the fuel is incredibly well priced and the water pressure is the best of any marina I’ve ever experienced!

This is much more than a handy stop-over on the way to Martha's Vineyard. The dockhands were waiting for us upon arrival. We brought bikes and enjoyed biking the length of the canal-the access is literally right there at the marina. We highly recommend The Pilot House Restaurant, which has awesome indoor and outdoor dining-plenty of it-with a sunset view. There is also a beach within walking distance and it's fun to sit on the breakwater at the canal entrance and watch the boats come and go. Restrooms were super-clean and all CDC protocol is being followed. Wish we had stayed longer!

It's a very convenient stop! The only downside is the public boat ramp. The boats going out fishing in the middle of the night are not always very considerate and crank music and kick up a wake. That can interrupt sleep. Also, there is a smell of exhaust and fuel sometimes which can be unnerving. Besides that it has a lot to offer ashore.

We were glad to get a spot, but on a holiday weekend we were rocked with wakes hour after hour. They were not terrible wakes, but enough to make it uncomfortable. There is a launch ramp inside the basin, so hundreds of boats go in and out. Baths and showers are a LONG way from some of the docks. We didn't even bother. Locals were friendly, but we won;t be stopping here again.

Dockwa reservation worked great. Dockmaster guided us to our slip professionally. Docks are great. Showers and rest rooms are new and clean but a very long walk from the slips. Heavy commercial and recreational fishing use of the marina means lots of boat engine noises, beginning at 4:30 am. Dock attendant went above and beyond in bringing a bag of ice to our dock for us so we didn't have to walk all the way. The Pilot House restaurant was great for dinner and the outside bar area on the lawn was wonderful, with great live music.

Reserved a slip thru dockwa and got quick confirmation. Unfortuneatly we arrrived an hour earlier than scheduled as we picked up good speed thru the canal. The marina was not quite ready for us and there was difficulty in communicating via phone or radio as it was lunchtime. Regardless the Dock hands were able to help direct us to our designated spot. Facilities were very clean and convenient to restaurants Dockwa confirmation was quick and responsive. Dockhand came out at our normal arrival time and gave us details regarding passwords and bathroom combos

Hi We arrived with 38' cutter Christina Grant at 04:30 after a direct passage from Nova Scotia, hoping to purchase fuel, clear Customs and continue on with least delay. We did purchase $150 in fuel and were moved off the fuel dock to another berth to await Customs. We were finally advised that Customs will not come to Sandwich and told to go to a port of entry on Buzzards Bay, but by then the current in the Canal was adverse so we could not proceed. We finally got underway at 12:30 but, having been in the marina for more than 4 hours, were charged an additional $108 in dockage fees. Overall it was a short but very expensive visit. Staff were friendly and showers clean. I would not stop here again in the future unless it were unavoidable.

Oct 4, 2017 4:30 pm EDT. Called the marina via cell phone about an hour out. Auto-attendant transferred me to a person who picked up the phone and immediately hung it up. Tried calling 2 more times but no answer after auto-attendant transfer. Tried contacting the marina on ch 16, then 9 and then 8. After a couple of minutes, someone responded on ch 8. I told the person I was about an hour out and requested a face tie since I had never docked the new to me boat before and the wind was blowing at over 25 knots. I was told to pull up to the fuel dock and they would take care of me. When I arrived the winds were a steady 30, gusting to 40 knots. I pulled up to the fuel dock and the person in the shack looked up but did not come out. As I got closer to the dock I tapped my horn and he came out. I explained that I was told to pull up to the fuel dock upon arrival. He asked who told me that and I said the person who answered on ch 8, to which he replied, "That was me". I told him I had a reservation and gave him my name. He said I wasn't on the list. I showed him my email confirmation (Sandwich Marina reservation #ZQEF4JLQ). He saw the email was from the dockmaster and made a less than pleasant remark. I told him the reservation was for 2 x 30 amp circuits and asked if the power was on at the nearby power pole. He responded yes. He cleated my bow line and told me that the next face dock south was where I should be. However, there was a sailboat already there leaving only about 15 feet of dock for my 42' boat. He told me I had to be gone by 6am and then left. When I went to plug in I found the power pole had a padlock on one side and only one 30 amp circuit on the opposite side. Luckily I had additional cables. I extended one line and ran it further down the dock to the next pole. The next morning I was on the dock at 5:50 and met another marina employee who was opening up. I related what happened. He found a slip for me and helped tie my bow once I got in the slip. Overall, very disappointed in how things were handled... the poor phone & radio communications, the power pole issue, the 6am departure mandate, etc. Not a very good experience, nor one I would want to repeat.
