About


Newport Marina - Lee's Wharf is privately owned with one of the best marina facilities, located in the heart of downtown Newport, Rhode Island. We are family and pet friendly. The Marina has just undergone a complete remodeling including state of the art floating docks with composite decking, as well as 30, 50, and 100amp 3-phase electric.

The marina can accommodate vessels up to 140 feet on a transient or seasonal basis. Facilities include a heated outdoor pool, clean showers/laundry, wireless internet/cable TV, grilling and outdoor lounge area, and parking. Our convenient downtown location is within walking distance of all Newport's restaurants, pubs, and world class shopping.

Newport marina does not allow any political signage or flags while staying at the docks. Owners will be asked to take down the political pieces to prevent arguments and altercations.

Five stars without question. We'll definitely dock here in future Newport stays. Everything about our visit here was top notch: The professionalism of the dockmaster (/owner?) and his team, the quality of the docks, infrastructure and facilities, the security of the docks, and the VERY welcome swimming pool. We were the tiny (36') boat nestled in among 100-150' yachts, yet we were treated as kindly, and supported just as well as them. As with any location where big boats abound, be prepared for "big boat" stuff - cooling water exiting from boats, yacht crew taking care of the boats, and all the things that are part of boating life. But, none of it was a problem for us; we felt kinda cool being on-board operators among all the big boys. And while some locations in Newport can be loud from nearby retail / commercial happenings, this marina is on the southern end of Thames St., which is a bit quieter on its own. And the one restaurant operating next to the marina (The Reef) was nicely quiet when it came time to turn in for the night (though we were there Wed/Thu nights; we can't speak to Fri/Sat/Sun). And the food there was so good we ate both our lunches there. Definitely our choice for staying on our next visit. By the way: If you're looking for a nice walk when visiting Newport, check out the "Colonial Tree Walk" on AllTrails - and be sure to read the notes about all the trees being pointed out within it. We LOVED taking a walk through historic parts of Newport and learning so many things about very notable trees the locals have preserved and loved!

I will repeat what most other reviewers say: the dock master, Steve, is a full service, friendly guy. Facilities are nice and clean. Our stay was quiet and calm, even during Jazz Festival weekend. One final note: this was the first time I received a phone call from the Marina letting me know how we would be docking so that I could prep fenders and lines. Way on top of things! Usually I have to call in.

The facilities are excellent. The power, cable tv, and water are great. The floating docks, bathroom and laundry facilities are top flight. The place even fits in a small pool, perfectly heated, surrounded by deck chairs. But the best thing about Newport Marina is Steve, the ubiquitous dockmaster. He seems to be everywhere and runs a really nice facility. Congratulations to Steve and everyone who uses this marina.

We love Newport Marina. While it’s location is perfect in terms of access to anywhere in Newport, it is a quiet, well cared for marina that allows you to escape from the busy streets and stores. Steve, the dockmaster, is super friendly and accommodating and he keeps the marina immaculate. We love getting there any chance we can get!

A wonderful stay at a great facility. Location could not be more convenient. We were able to walk in town, including to a large grocery store. We met friends and walked to dinner each evening. The views of the harbor can not be beat and Dockmaster Stephen made a point of checking on us to see if we needed anything. Definitely our new location when we visit Newport.

I hate to let everyone know as I want to keep this marina to myself 😀 This marina is one of the best keep facilities we have been to from Long Island Sound to New Hampshire. We have been coming here every year for the past 3 and can’t wait for this year’s season to arrive. Steve takes pride in the marina and it shows! From the docks, to the pool and to the restrooms, all in perfect condition. 👍

Impeccably maintained marina with every possible amenity. Moreover, Dockmaster Steve could not be any more accommodating & friendly; every request instantly honored. I will be back to Newport repeatedly & ONLY tie up there. Five platinum stars. M Finkelson s/v La Di Da

This is our 6th year here and year after year it gets better and better. Steve “the everything” of Newport Marina is not only the most amazing host but has treated us like family from day one. His outgoing, loving personality and love for his Marina shows and shines through. The marina is spotless !!! You can eat off the docks and bathroom floors. It is super impeccable from the pool to the BBQ area to the docks that you never need shoes on because they are so clean. It says something about Steve and the marina when you talk to other boats and they all keep coming back and they all say “this is our favorite place to be”. Everyone is so friendly they all know steve and it becomes like a family when you are here. Steve goes boat to boat all day long to make sure everything and everyone is okay. He has a true passion of what he loves and it shows every second of the day. He has his hands in everything to make your vacation the most perfect relaxing one. We wait to visit Steve and his marina knowing it’s going to be the best time.

We came in on a very windy day and were a bit intimidated about docking between two rather large boats but the service was fantastic from those first few moments until the time we left. Our parents came via car and there was overnight parking available, and the pool was such a great plus for a hot August weekend. We can’t wait to come back!
