Makah Marina

Makah Marina: The staff at this new marina invite boaters to “Experience the natural beauty of our corner of the world.” The Makah Marina is located in Neah Bay, near the “farthest northwest point” of the contiguous United States, at the very tip of Washington State’s Olympic Peninsula. When boating here from all points east, west, north, or south you see the breathtaking, rugged, irregular rock sculptured coastline and white sandy beaches leading to the marina. This is the gateway to the Pacific Ocean from Puget Sound, southern Vancouver Island, and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. It is “new frontier” waiting to be discovered by the boating family. Permanent and overnight moorage is available in this safe-harbor facility. Completed in 1997, it took over 30 years of patient lobbying for the Makah Tribe to successfully coordinate the construction of the ultra modern marina. Two hundred slips range in size from 30' to 70'. Vessels to, and in excess of, 100' can also be accommodated. Water and power is available and is easily accessible. Moorage slips are assigned on a first come, first serve basis. The new Marina Facilities Building has restrooms and public showers. The fuel dock dispenses gas, diesel, and lubricants. A dump station, waste pump-out, and launch ramp are also on site. Short and long term public parking is provided for trailers and cars. Tourist attractions within walking distance from the marina include the Makah Cultural and Research Center (MCRC) where permanent exhibits include artifacts from the Ozette site. Open daily from Memorial Day through September 15. Transportation can be arranged.
