Hyannis - Gateway Marina

Sure, you can't beat the location, but what made ours a great stay was how welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful the staff was, from the harbormaster right down to individual dockmasters. I'm used to more, shall we say, stand-offish behaviour from locals (we're from Maine); I mentioned that to the dockmaster and he said, "We're in the hospitality business." You have to keep your head up when coming in or going out, as it is right on the other side of the ferry dock, and there are several other commercial tour operators on adjacent slips, so there's a lot of large vessel traffic. The channel from the inner harbour to Lewis Bay is narrow, so timing and awareness are paramount.

Great experience overall! The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. The spot is fantastic, great access to everything. Only reason for 4 vs 5 stars is because of how tight the area is to navigate, recommended for more experienced operator. - Mike | 23' CC Edgewater

Great stay for Memorial Day weekend. Very clean and convenient marina, close to everything, boat ramp just around the corner. Very well protected in the inner harbor! The entire harbormaster dept was extremely accommodating to all our needs. The set us up with power and helped with finding overnight parking for our trailer. We’ll definitely be back to visit. Capt.
