Newport Yacht Club & Marina (NY Harbor)

We recently stayed at the Newport Jersey City Marina, and it was an outstanding experience. A very long and convenient floating face dock makes docking a breeze. Water pressure on the docks is excellent, and the marina offers reliable 50/100 Amp power pedestals, which is perfect for larger vessels. The views of the New York City skyline are nothing short of breathtaking, especially during the evening hours when the city lights up. It's incredibly convenient being within walking distance of essential stores like Home Depot and ShopRite, plus there are plenty of nearby restaurants, bars, and cafes (Starbucks is on the same block, as is Battello, a fantastic upscale Italian restaurant). If you're looking to head into the city, public transportation is also in walking distance, and it's just a quick 15-minute subway ride to downtown Manhattan, making it a great location for those wanting to experience NYC without the hassle. For transients, the marina is a fantastic spot to provision (ShopRite and Morton Williams Supermarket are both walking distance), and it's also well-suited for longer stays. The marina is well-protected, with little to no wake from the Hudson River. The marina is gated and keeps tourists off the docks. Mike the dockmaster is exceptionally helpful, always ready to assist with lines. The channel into the marina is well marked and documented. Overall, Newport Yacht Club & Marina is a top-notch choice for both short and long stays. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for dockage in the NYC/NJ area! Capt. Thomas, M/Y Moonlighter II.

Great marina in a great location. Well protected from the river traffic and walking distance to shops and restaurants. We'll definitely be back!

Perfect location to be out of the swell that the Ferries leave on the Hudson River. Mike was exceptionally helpful with all our needs and will definitely recommend this Marina for anyone who wants peace and relaxation. Close to the Mall, restaurants and a Starbucks nearby.

We were looking for a dock and dine in the NYC/NJ area, the Newport marina in Jersey City is next door to Battello with stunning views of lower Manhattan. Their communication over the phone regarding dock availability and making reservations was prompt and kind. From there, I was instructed to contact Mike, the harbor master, half hour before arrival. They knew I was a first time user of their facility. Mike was super helpful. He sent us a map of the approach and then showed up at the dock to guide my course over the phone and grabbed our lines at the dock. We had a great dinner and a great experience, couldn't wish for anything more. We plan on returning as it was a blast.

Nobody at site No answer to direct you where to dock or help you in

We watched the Macys fireworks on the Hudson River on July 4th. Newport Yacht Club & Marina is one of the best locations on the Hudson. There was no ripping current or wake. Mike and his staff were great. They greeted us as we arrived and helped with the lines. There is a great walkable area around the Marina. I highly recommend this Marina to anyone looking for a convenient location without the hustle and bustle.

Great location and personnel was available to help ! Easy access and departure. Looking forward to returning soon.

We had a great time at the Newport Marina. Mike , the owner, went out of his way to help us with package deliveries and arranging help with arrival. Follow the well detailed approach directions and it’s an easy entry. All side ties. It is the perfect location for exploring the City, with the Newport train station one block away. Plus the view of the Manhattan skyline is tremendous. And there is a beautiful park just behind the marina for walking the dog and relaxing. Target is an easy 20 min walk for provisions. Though there aren’t any amenities like bathrooms or showers, it was fine for us as we prefer using our own, anyway. This is a great stop and great alternative to the ‘other’ big marina just south of here. Loopers! Ask for a Looper discount. Mike will work with you. 😊 Highly recommend!

I moved a 90 footer I was delivering to South Carolina to Newport Marina last week from a Manhattan dock. Couldn't believe how much calmer and nicer this location is. The boat wasn't getting beaten up at all. The area has everything we need walkable from the dock. It really is in the middle of a great neighborhood. Plus Manhattan is only one easy train stop away to visit the city. The dock staff were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Crew loved having groceries, the mall, bars, and restaurants across the street. Looking forward to returning on future deliveries.

Found Newport Yacht Club & Marina by word of mouth, after finding no room available at Liberty Landing. The Newport docks are set back far enough off the Hudson, with a submerged breakwater, that the high speed ferry wakes don't cause an issue. Capt Mike manages the property and is very friendly and responsive to any issue. Newport is also within walking distance of a mall, movie theater and 100+ restaurants. They also have a fire pit and some of the best views of lower Manhattan. I highly recommend.

Great small marina! Easy access to the Path, shopping and great restaurants. Mike, the dock master was very helpful. Highly recommend!

A very low key and convenient marina located on the Jersey side of the Hudson River to dock and dine or just walk the promenade and shop. There’s also great views of the Manhattan skyline. Mike the owner and his staff were very welcoming and attentive. We will definitely be going back.

Nice marina with great view. Mike was very helpful

Mike is super helpful and everything was fantastic. I recommend stopping in for dinner.
