About


Lady's Island Marina in Beaufort, South Carolina, is known for its natural beauty, convenient location, and friendly management. We are located on the protected waters of Factory Creek, less than 1/2 mile from the ICW. Slips are available for transient and long-term rentals. We have a DIY boaters' workshop, boaters' lounge, courtesy car and loaner bikes. Overlooking the marina is longtime local favorite, Dockside Restaurant. Next door (almost) is Beaufort hangout The Fillin' Station, with a covered deck set above Factory Creek. On-site the the marina boathouse, you'll find Journey Marine Canvas, One Salon, massage therapy and the Lady's Island Marina Store. Everything else you might need is within a mile on Sea Island Parkway, including groceries, hardware, liquor store, pharmacy, additional restaurants, banks, medical & dental and veterinary care. Historic downtown Beaufort is 1 mile away.

Approach


As you pass the Lady's Island swing bridge (Woods Memorial Bridge), remain closer to the bridge side. Keep the green channel markers well to port, as the channel gets shallow near the markers. Then head toward the anchored boats in the creek - the water is deepest there.

I highly recommend staying at Lady's Island Marina. I had several people recommend it to us and I see why. Aaron reached out to us early in the day and provided us with an overhead shot of the marina and where we were going to be docked. Aaron was extremely helpful and even got us reservations at Dockside Restaurant. We will definitely be back to stay there in the future.

We had a wonderful stay at Lady's Island Marina. Aaron was very helpful and accommodating in getting us a berth for a week and was there to help us tie up when we arrived. Tom, the owner, was also incredibly friendly and a wealth of knowledge about the area. The marina is close to so many things. It is a short walk to a very good hardware store, a pharmacy, and multiple options for groceries. The marina has a loaner vehicle for short periods as well as bicycles to use. The restrooms/showers/laundry were very clean. It is a nice walk or bike ride over the bridge to access all that Beaufort has to offer - plenty of restaurants and shops to choose from. We cannot say enough good things about our visit here and will certainly return!

The marina has well kept floating docks, clean restrooms, free washers & $2.50 dryers, free bicycles, a loaner car, and great staff. There’s a canvas shop on site, kayak/outfitting store with rentals, restaurant, and others. Within walking distance you have hardware, marine, groceries, dollar store, etc. Lady’s Island checks off all the boxes. We will be back again.

We had booked a hotel in downtown Beaufort and the downtown marina was fully booked. We booked and stayed at Lady's Island. Tom, the owner, came down with a cart and helped us unload our boat. Then he loaded our belongings into his truck and drove us over to our motel. He then, picked us up the next morning and drove us back to the marina. Above and beyond exceptional service!!!

This is one of the very best marinas we have ever stayed at. Great welcoming email before arrival providing arrival instructions, tides/currents and exact slip assignment. Aaron and Jack were exceptional dockhands assisting us upon arrival. Excellent shower and restroom facilities. Dockside Restaurant (next door) was excellent and convenient (Aaron offered to make us a reservation). We took advantage of the pump out boat that came to us slipside. Marina is located in good water just 1/2 mile off the ICW in a very quiet no wake zone. Easy dinghy ride to shopping and bars/restaurants in downtown Beaufort.

Very comfortable stay. Was a little concerned about the current and depth in a small creek, but turned out to be a non issue (I carry 4.5’ draft). The docks are floating and are well maintained. The bathrooms and showers are clean and well maintained. There is a courtesy pick-up available, and many stores around to do shopping … even went to the West Marine, but hard pressed to make it back in the allotted 1 hour. The walk into town was about 30-40minutes, so not an issue. Lots of shops and restaurants there. Aaron, the dock master, was very helpful and provided lots of great tips and information.

Our stay was great. We made reservations for and paid for 2 nights due to the forecast not being favorable. We woke up the next morning and the forecast had changed, so we were able to leave. We asked for a refund of our second night and the dock hand and manager said the owner wouldn’t allow that but he would give us a credit for our next stay. That is unacceptable for boaters. Boaters travel with favorable weather. We’ve always enjoyed our stays here and would have given them a better rating if this had not happened.

Marina Response:
I think I mentioned this before but for one thing you could've talked about the dinner reservations we made for you, on short notice - getting you seated at a very busy place. You might also understand that when you book a reservation, you're taking space from a fellow boater - someone we've had to decline. Marina's are very similar to hotels - we rely upon our clients to honor their reservations. We are very lenient when it comes to a failure to appear when it comes to extremely foul weather or motor problems. We've also extended more boats than we can count, who limped into our marina and needed to get repairs - added to that, we go out of our way to find mechanics, electricians, etc., to aide in that effort. So next time you want to leave because suddenly the weather is better than you expected, consider the above. We're in the business of serving people but we are in a "business".

We used the loaner car for 45 min to provision at Publix (.5 mi). All was exceptional. Looking forward to returning soon! This marina is run as if the owners were there themselves! MV Obsession

We stayed here during August 2021. This is the nicest, friendliest, cleanest marina we have ever stayed at. It is not too big (75 slips?) and is on a very calm lowcountry "creek" in a "no wake" zone. The management (Tom) and staff (Matthew, Aaron) are the friendliest we've encountered in our travels and will go out of their way to assist with anything. The use of bicycles and even a loaner car to make grocery runs is a great plus!! There are nearby groceries, hardware, fast food, cafe's and restaurants. A stay at this great marina combined with the allure of the Beaufort SC lowcountry charm is a winning combination. We will definitely return and recommend to everyone. Mike/Friend Ship

Great marina. Very clean bathrooms and showers. Well maintained. Owner is great. My only wish is that it was a little bit cooler/better ventilated in the shower rooms. Even after taking a lukewarm shower it was difficult to get dressed. Would definitely stay there again.

Tom and Matthew met us we arrived to the dock to give us a hand, show us around and made sure we were set for the night. Very CLEAN shower facilities and amazing food at the restaurant at the marina. We would highly recommend Lady's Island marina for the perfect stay in Beaufort!

Great stay! Tom was amazing, met us at dock with a smile after hours, allowed us to use the loaner car to go into town for dinner. I can’t say enough about the service here.

Thanks for being great boaters and people. Come back!

The owner, Tom Daniels, couldn’t have been more helpful. An extremely nice individual. The Marina has the cleanest bathrooms and showers of any Marina we have been in. No rust or corrosion on the fixtures like other marinas. Great lounge/kitchen area for boaters to use. Washers were free to use, you just had to pay for the dryers. Will definitely stay here again. Water was also very calm and a protected from wake on the intercoastal.

What makes a vacation? People, Places and Things Our stay at Lady’s Island Marina has exceeded our expectations in all three categories. We trailered our Ranger Tug R21EC “RedBird” here from Athens, GA and kept her in a slip at the marina while staying at the B&B for a week. The facilities (Things) here are excellent. Tom has done an outstanding job of outfitting this B&B with quality furnishings that are tasteful and well maintained. The view out the windows is to die for. The same level of care is evident in the rest of the Marina facilities. The location of the Marina (Place) is perfect. A short distance to shopping for necessities and convenient to downtown Beaufort for tourist shopping. And, on the water side the marina is protected from the weather out on the river but so close it’s an easy trip to Beaufort, Port Royal and other interesting stops. We also found the Marina Gift shop fun with Diana being a wealth of information about the area. And we took advantage of the salon and got our first haircuts since COVID lockdown forced do it your self approaches. And finally the very best part of the experience has been the People. Everyone in the marina has been extremely friendly and helpful. However, the person who has really made our trip so wonderful is Tom Daniels! Tom as been such a great host. He was encouraging to us when planning the trip and continued to be such a great resource all thru the week we stayed here. Somehow he always appears at just the right moment when we were in need. Either when we had a question or when we needed a hand in coming into the slip with our boat when the wind was picking up. He is truly an amazing person with such a positive attitude. The Place and the Things here would not be the same without this Person (Tom). Thank you for such a wonderful opportunity to experience Low Country hospitality. We will definitely return and tell others about Lady’s Island Marina. Very Best Wishes to Tom, his family and Lady’s Island Marina. Harry and Brenda Hayes Athens, GA

We loved it here. Even though we could have used the complimentary bikes or car, we chose to zip over to town in the dinghy and then took a trip up the Ashley River just for fun . So easy. Glad we chose to stay here in the calm water instead of getting rocked at the city marina. Will definitely be back on our return trip in the fall.

Tom the dock master/owner runs a great marina, once there he gave us information on the area. They also have a courtesy car so we could pick up some groceries. There is a great ship's store, clean bathrooms and shower, and laundry. It is an easy in and out from the ICW. Thanks Tom, we always enjoy our stay, we will be back!

Enjoyed our stay - only one night tho' as we're on the move right now. Received a very warm welcome from the marina owner, Tom, and a nice tour of the marina's facilities. All very well taken care of! A great restaurant right on property - Lady's Island Dockside. Super delish & the price was really reasonable. Lots of good eating options nearby without having to go into downtown Beaufort. The Lady's Island Marina giftshop was amazing and the ladies running the show fabulous! I never buy gift shop items but 90% of their goods are made by local artisans - from foods to decor - all lovely and worth the visit! Next time we will stay longer as the Beaufort and it's surrounding areas are full of wonderful things to explore.

What a great find! First, we were met at the dock by a smiling Tom, new owner. He handled the lines professionally and introduced us to all the amenities at the marina. A special delight was the dinner at Dock Side restaurant right up the ramp from the marina. I would give the six stars if I could.

Can’t say enough nice things about this place. Wish we could have stayed longer but were on a time schedule to head to St Augustine. Dock master, Tom, came back to the marina to help us dock as we arrived after closing. Great amenities, facility, very clean and great location with several restaurants in walking distance. Looking forward to coming back and staying longer!

The marina owner and staff are very accommodating, and quick to assist with any need you may have. The facility is immaculate, and obviously very well maintained. The location is convenient to great restaurants, convenience stores, and open water. There is even a vehicle for marina guests who need a lift. We will definitely dock and stay again.

Update: the marina is still wonderful as ever!!! Clean quiet and can’t say enough nice things about Tom (the owner). If I could give the marina 10 stars I certainly would. This is a regular stop in our travels. So quiet, clean has many wonderful things on site (marina store, canvas shop, YOGA?!) We ate at the restaurant Dockside, it was very very good. Can't wait to travel back in the fall to spend more time here! thank you Mary!!

Marina Response:
Thanks so much, Southern Latitude - we'll see you next time! FYI, Mary left us back in June for Safe Harbor up in Solomon's - happy for her. Our Yoga has been replaced with a super awesome hair salon, One Salon. Pay a visit next time you're here and thanks again for the kind words

This is one of our favorite stops on the ICW. Follow Mary's directions and the approach is straightforward, depths more than ample. She and resident boaters are friendly and helpful; facilities clean and well-maintained. The restaurant next door is excellent; provisions and liquor are a short walk up the road. Downtown is just across the bridge. This is less expensive, less exposed to winds and much more pleasant than the downtown pier.

Thanks so much, Steadfast - it was great to see you!

Simply the best experience in Beaufort if your looking for a simple nights rest or a long term berth. A bohemian village of charming helpful caring folks that will probably hold you hostage well beyond you’re planned departure date. Great facility at a very competitive price. Located on Factory Creek, the ultimate hurricane hole!

Up and down the east coast ...... this is one of my home away from home spots. Dockmaster Mary will take great care of you. If you need canvas work, Journey Marine is the one you want doing your work. Need to get some "do it yourself" work done, the marina shop on site is the place. Love the vibe of this marina.

We checked out the courtesy car for provisioning. Bonus! Very clean and super friendly. PS: it’s on a marsh so expect and respect the dreaded noseeums and bring your Skin So Soft!

Have stayed at many Marina's on the Intercoastal Waterway. This is the BEST. We just left Hilton Head and will stay here for the long term. This marina.............. Has the best & cleanest showers, and restrooms, and they are all private units. The marina rates are very resonable. Short walking distance to many restaurants & shopping. ACE Hardware 1 1/2 blocks away has a large store and great marine selection. Great restaurant at the Marina. Just over the bridge, then your downtown. Close to all marina services. Enterprise Car Rental will pick up & drop off. Same for cabs. Operated by a Super dock manager. (Ted & his wife) Safe and secure place to leave your boat. Best place to be during a storm. Pump out, but no fuel. Free cable TV with lots of channels. WIFI has just been upgraded. "flight Deck "
