Eau Gallie Yacht Basin

The owner, Mike, greeted us with 2 other men to help us tie up. This is a very clean and picturesque Marina with proximity to Publix and restaurant choices. Uber is a quick call to anything you need.(We have folding bikes but used Uber for a large provisioning.) I walked to Planet Fitness one day and ran the causeway bridge sidewalk another day. My husband cycled to Bangs for a great haircut. Laundry, docks, bathrooms and all amenities are well maintained. Especially loved taking the dingy a very calm, short distance to Frigates for a glass of wine and a fantastic dinner watching the sunset. Mike is a text away if you need anything. More personal than large marinas. No fuel, but everything else.

The basin is beautiful, protected on FOUR SIDES, and everyone was super friendly! Love this marina, one of the hidden gems off of the ICW.

Great small friendly marina.

This may be one of the coolest little marinas I have ever been to. The marina is very well protected from all winds. The pilings were in good condition - no issues tying off. Anything they are lacking in amenities compared to some of the newer marinas is made up for in the great little surrounding area which had great little restaurants and shops. I wish I could have stayed longer. Highly recommended!

This marina is quaint, charming, and most certainly well protected. The boating community there is friendly and always willing to help. Our stay was awesome. We highly recommend keeping your boat here or stopping by to experience the area. It’s also interesting to note this marina originated in 1896 so the history is amazing and releases an old time feel. The owner is “hands on” and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. The amenities are comfortable and there is a canvas shop on site. We highly recommend this marina to all who plan to visit the Melbourne area. Peter and Stephanie Meilunas

Great, quiet location. Friendly staff and other occupants. Easy access, just follow the markers. Close to restaurants, ACE Hardware, and more. Definitely worth a stop.

Beautiful small town marina with wonderful people. I would take this marina over any other. Had a pot luck dinner the night we were there and had a wonderful time! Thanks!

Great, friendly people. Very welcoming. Would come back anytime.

lovely simple old fashioned quiet marina. No help finding dock or help docking. a real sailors marina with the basic necessities. Electric, water, kitchen, showers, toilets.

We arrived at Eau Gallie Yacht Basin about 1:30 pm on a Thursday and the office was closed. Called two different phone numbers for the marina and no answers. We left messages, but no one returned our phone call. Did not have a slip assignment or restroom codes. Finally tied up on the face of a dock behind a larger cruiser. We needed ice for our cooler, so were told by another transient boater that we might find some in town. Walked downtown but had no luck finding ice. When we got back to the marina, the office attendant said her husband was out in the marina looking for us, but we never received a phone response to the messages we left. The marina does not sell snacks or ice like the Waterway Guide implies. We finally connected with a local resident boater, who ubered my husband to find ice. If you are looking for a marina with simple amenities like ice or snacks and an office attendant, go somewhere else. The only good thing I can say about Eau Gallie Yacht Basin is that some of the resident boaters are very friendly and helpful.

We are very happy,this is a great community of sailors. We have been here for a few weeks we had to leave the boat for some travel. I never worried once about our boat "Anyroad", I knew she would be taken care of. The small Artist community of Eau Gallie is very walkable, lots of restaurants and cut boutiques. There is a Publixs about 2 miles away for provisions.

Well protected marina with a nice view and friendly folks!

Docks were great. Power was perfect. Water is high quality, people friendly, course into the area wide and well marked. Peaceful. A little hike to restaurants but beautiful neighborhood. Would come back in a minute.

It was a nice place but there was no gas for the boat. We had to go to a different Marina each day to fill up. They also did not have a convenience store. The service here was very limited. But I work I try to be nice

Wonderful little diamond in the rough. Great hosts, Dave and Karen!

Quiet, pleasant, easy bicycle ride to several nearby restaurants.

Great facility but not more that water and electric. Very well protected harbor basin and only 5-10 minutes from the airport.

This is a great casual little spot for those not looking to impress. No help to the dock, but it was easy. Great outdoor seating and grilling area, cosy clubhouse and totally good bathroom and shower facilities. Not fancy, but totally good! Publix a 2 mile bike ride and little downtown within five blocks. Look forward to staying here again.

Friendly! All services available.Comfortable but no luxurious.

Very calm well protected marina

This place needs some updating. The people are nice, but it is where old sailboats go at the end of their life cycle. A new owner with vision could turn this marina into a real gem.

This marina is a small quaint marina with lots of local sailboats. The staff was cordial and accommodating to us. We will stay here again when in the area.

Good protection from winds. Slip are pretty tight. Would like to get WiFi, bathroom codes, upon arrival or by email instead of having to ask residents

Staff and owner went above and beyond to get three slips for a windy weekend. The marina sits just off the ICW and up a small river to a quiet harbor. It is set close to many beautiful oak tree lined streets and it’s an easy walk to many restaurants and stores. The local harbor host, John, was very helpful as well as the other local slip holders.

Charming little marina with lovely grassy area, fire pit, bbq, covered tables, and string lights. Pet friendly. ( feels like Cabot Cove!) One washer/dryer $1.50 load. Restrooms with showers. Nice boaters lounge. All people very nice. Easy walk to restaurants and some shops. Had groceries delivered. Free pump out at slip.

Nice place and have stayed before but adamantly opposed to dockwa cancelation policy, no one at the marina returned phone calls all afternoon about arrival and no one at the marina to assist slip. Neither marina or dockwa gave information saying this might be the case and provided further information. TOTALLY unacceptable. And I worked in the marine industry or related for over 35 years.

Nice people and town. Just be aware on approach that they cannot always monitor Ch 16 so you may need to phone or get all your details in advance. Restaurants and marine supplies nearby.

Nice marina, friendly people, cute town. Great location to hide from the weather.

I love the charm and friendliness of this marina. There is a nice grassy area and shady pavilion to hang out. Very quiet. Beautiful neighborhood. There aren’t many transient slips and I’m happy they could accommodate us. Next time, we will ask to be on the face dock as the slip we are in is quite narrow. Still, a great stop!

We love Eau Gallie Yacht Basin. Friendly people, good safe harbor- protected from all winds, walk to town, nice lounge/cabana/gas grill to use.

Protected dockage was smooth as glass. The ICW was choppy and 17kts of wind made for a long day. Dockhands assisted in getting us tied up and we're very helpful. The restrooms were clean and decorated. Everything was clean and neat. We walked to Frigate Barr and Grill for an awesome dinner. We will visit again .

A friendly boutique marine . Easy access to town and grocery shopping .

No one monitors VHF channel - had no idea where my slip was and there were no staff on site. No answer on office phone - on vacation. Overall a pleasant little marina, good protection. Seems like a community of snowbirds who enjoy each other’s company. Facilities, bathrooms clean but old.

No frills to drive the cost up, but everything a cruiser might need is either on site or nearby. Marina is clean and friendly.

What a gem of a marina! The owner Mike was hands on with helping us getting in and out and made sure we felt welcomed. We were invited to their Wednesday night pot luck dinner and everyone was so great. Our Golden ... Sadie Belle was so happy for all the hugs and treats she got. We look forward to returning in the Spring.

What a hidden surprise! While the docks are older the dock master was very helpful getting us safely tied up on the old pumpout dock t-head. He even invited us to the marina Thanksgiving Party. Very close to walk into town and explore.

This rating is based on the friendliness of the people there. Everyone was very nice. They have a live aboard community that are very welcoming. There is a “Temple”. Which is a covered structure with sink, ice, cooking supplies and grill where people meet daily to visit. Laundry on site, very quiet area. Will go back.

Very clean and comfortable marina. This is the second time we stopped there. Definitely nothing fancy but a very friendly live-aboard community. We stayed 3 days because we had family in town for a wedding. The view is great from the last slip on the face dock. My only complaint is that the wifi is basically non-existant. But they still get a 5. We will be back.

Beautiful cove with a nice little marina - a club member came on a Sunday to help us tie up. Short walk to Eau Gallie “downtown” with good restaurants. We would go again.

Such a comfortable, friendly Marina! We will definitely be back!

Convenient to the ICW. Rameally friendly boaters and staff. Clean facilities and Eau Gallie has some great eats downtown! Try the Woodfired Pizza, cocktails at Olendar speakeasy and the new Intercoastal brew pub! We will be back.

yes a very quaint and awesome marina; all amenities have kept us comfortable; pet and people friendly make it a pleasure to stay

Nice little marina. Good restaurant within walking distance. People were very friendly

Great place to stop when cruising the ICW. Super friendly cruisers. Pot luck on Wednesday is awesome.

This is a gem of a marina! Cool vibe, nice manager, location to walk to town. Cannot be beat at this price point! We will be back!

Wonderful hidden gem! VERY nice people working there and wonderful residents in the marina. Best way to describe the atmosphere is "campy". They have a Firepit, outdoor kitchen etc.

They are always so nice there. Little bitty marina with a big heart. Great restaurants close by as well.

Great stop. Friendly atmosphere. Adequate support. Great walking community. Reasonably quite. Fun.

Dave was not friendly. Locals have seem to taken over. Can't correct mistakes on dockwa or with Dave on reservation. A date error made on Dockwa could not be corrected. I got charged for 3 days but only allowed to stay for 2. Emails and phone calls were not answered promptly to try to remedy error.

Very friendly place. One of the boaters pitched in to help us tie up. Wednesday is pot luck. Only criticism is you can’t reach anyone by phone or radio to confirm where they want you to go. No staff on site.

Nice small marina, some very friendly people. Every Wednesday they have a potluck! Clean showers and bathrooms .would recommend a walk to local brewery!

Absolutely love the marina. Great location with an Arts District in walking distance along with plenty of marine shops nearby. Facility is clean and constantly being improved upon. There’s a great community of resident liveaboards and seasonal folks. You always feel welcome. It’s location is great for hiding from storms, too. Thanks for the great memories!

Very laid back, nice spot. Not many transient spots, but if you can get one they’re very easy side-ties. No current or tide issues. Helpful folks to help you tie up. Dockwa reservation. No WiFi that we saw. If you stay, make sure to walk over to Oh Biscuit! For breakfast excellent food. Would stay again for sure.

We love this place! Karen, Poppy says thank you for all the pets!

Great spot! Super friendly staff and lots of full time live aboards keeping an eye on things. This would be a great spot to park the boat and run home. Two miles to Publix (Uber) but lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance.

This is a great location. Short distance to local food and quick access to the river. We had a wonderful stay and everyone at the marina was very friendly. We will definitely stay here again!

Dave is an awesome!!

Great nook and cranny and has been remodeled. Friendly folks and close to boutique shops and eateries within walking distance. Only real downside is it’s not close to real shopping. Wickham Rd or go across the causeway. You’ll need transportation.

Great value. Clean facilities. No issues at all 👍

Nice people and facilities. Air conditioned captains lounge or outdoor gazebo for relaxing. Short walk to restaurants but no close drug store or grocery.
