Delaware City Marina is a well-regarded boating destination along the historic C&D Canal. The owner is hands-on, and the docking process is made easy with VHF radio assistance. The dock staff, particularly Charlie and Zack, are praised for their expertise in tying up boats securely. The marina's haulout service is also noted for its professionalism. Visitors can enjoy the quaint town of Delaware City, with a brick promenade leading from the marina to the downtown area. The marina's ship's store is well-stocked, catering to the needs of boaters. Overall, the marina is described as a friendly and helpful place, making it a popular choice for those sailing the East Coast and in need of a haul-out.
A lovely place to walk after a long day of errands :)

The staff and dock master were very friendly and welcoming. They assisted me with a mechanical issue promptly and efficiently. Great stopover with food close by.

Great service and staff! I’m new to the boating world and marinas in general, and the staff have gone out of their way to make us feel welcome and appreciated. Would highly recommend 👍! For boaters in Wilmington and Newark I would recommend coming down to Delaware City and visiting DCM! Thanks again 😁!
