Very easy to book and Jason the dock master made sure I had everything I needed. Plenty of info for shopping and fuel. Let us take what ice we needed and the showers and bathrooms were all new and very clean. I will definitely book a mooring there again in the future. The mooring field was very peaceful and calm.

Very nicely run marina with friendly and courteous staff. We enjoyed our stay here as we traveled south from Boothbay and Harpswell.

Small quiet and very unassuming place. Jason Tittle is a warm and knowledgeable manager. Very accommodating staff.

Dockmaster Jason and office manager Tara could not be more helpful! The courtesy and professionalism are always appreciated. And, Safe Harbor Kittery point yacht yard’s courtesy car is certainly a nice bonus! It sure helps with provisioning! I highly recommend Safe Harbor Kittery point yacht yard to all boaters.

Another great stay at SHKP! Jason is incredibly attentive and helpful. The marina is quaint and quiet as is the location. Facilities are top notch. Took advantage of the courtesy car to do a little local sightseeing and have lunch out with friends. Can’t wait to come back!

Thank you Scott for the wonderful review. We very much look forward to your return. Jason, Dockmaster

Very nice marina. Jason is professional, proactive and kind. Strange eddy currents around mooring balls make for some interesting swing behaviors. Nice clubhouse with coffee, ice, bikes and a nearly new courtesy car all included. Had a family feel even though part of Safe Harbor. Easy dinghy ride to downtown Portsmouth (Prescott Park).
Marina Response:

Excellent service, easy in and out . Had a very quiet day. Current and lobster traps were a concern but not an emergency issue. Jason the dock master is outstanding

Jason and Tara are great hosts. They will help you any way they can. The facilities are wonderful. A very relaxing and quiet channel behind a very busy port.
Marina Response:

Nice and quiet location, yet close to town (Portsmouth). Used marina bike to get to town. Friendly and helpful staff (Jason).

Old school, friendly boatyard and marina. Easy in and out. Most importantly the service was great. Quaint and friendly. Only issue is the walking distance to restaurants, sights etc. Ubers don exist in Kittery.
Marina Response:
Justin, thank you for the great review, we appreciate you taking the time to leave it for us. We are happy you enjoyed yourself and look forward to your return. Jason, Dockmaster

A bit tough getting on the mooring in a strong current but made it! We were on mooring #1 which is at the entrance and the most exposed. There are a lot of traps around so be on the lookout as some slightly below the water in current. The dinghy dock is very accessible. Tara is fantastic and the courtesy car is incredible. Jason also very helpful.
Marina Response:
William, thank you for the review! We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed your time with us and very much look forward to your return. When you do come back if you want us to assist with a pennant pick up just let us know. Enjoy the remainder of your cruise. Jason, Dockmaster

Hesitate to give this a five star review because we want to keep it all for ourselves. This is one of the best places we ever travel to!!!
Marina Response:
Christopher, we know the secret is getting out and want to thank you for such a great review. We very much look forward to your return! Jason, Dockmaster

We were pleasantly surprised how nice this marina is, and the calm waters while docked at Kittery Point Marina. Jason, Tara and Cher are helpful and welcoming. Kittery is a charming town, we visited Fort MCclary, Seapoint Beach and Frisbees for dinner. After departing, we boated over to Prescott Park in Portsmouth. We even decided to store our boat on the hard here during the winter. We look forward to our return.
Marina Response:
Darcy, it was our pleasure having you here with us and we are very much looking forward to your return. Thank you for taking the time to post this review and we will see you soon for haul out! Jason & the team at SHKP

Jason, the harbor master and Tara, the office person were terrific. Loaner car, secure mooring very convenient to me dock and marina and a very nice bathroom/shower let us accomplish all our tasks in Pt Kittery easily. Interesting town and city (Portsmouth). Thanks for the great service- see you on our trip home.
Marina Response:
Fred, thank you for taking the time to leave us this review. We were happy to help and hope to see you back in Kittery soon. Enjoy the rest of your cruise and let us know when you need another transient mooring or slip. Jason, Dockmaster

by Dave A. - Verified user on Jul 22, 2024
Quick and clear communication including a map of the mooring field and a list of local resources and contact information. Mooring appeared in good condition and appropriately sized. Even though we were on their most exposed mooring due to our size we had a very peaceful evening once the weekend traffic abated.
Marina Response:
Dave, thank you for the 5 star review. We are happy to hear you had a nice stay with us and your evening was a peaceful one. Looking forward to your return and hope you enjoy your cruising. Jason, Dockmaster

What a terrific spot. Our first visit to Maine and Kittery Point was the best place to start. Loaner bikes, locks and helmets made the trip even better.
Marina Response:
Welcome to Maine Lee! Thank you for the great review and we hope to see you back in Kittery soon. Jason, Dockmaster

by Ben R. - Verified user on Jul 14, 2024
Best Marina ever! They had a loaner car to use, 2 bikes to ride around, great customer service, and lots of nearby services if you need boat parts, which we did. Very cute, very clean. The staff was so kind in helping us sort out our issues after our starter burned out. Definitely going back again!
Marina Response:
Thank you Ben for this review, we appreciate you taking the time to let us know how we did. We very much look forward to your return, please let us know if you need anything from our end. Jason, Dockmaster

About Safe Harbor Kittery Point

Our facility offers 43 deep water moorings and 9 slips in the most protected basin in the area with direct open access (no bridges) to the Gulf of Maine. We are located in a water body known as the Back Channel; it is just off the north side of the Piscataqua River mouth, across from Jamaica Island. Our mooring balls are white, stamped with the letters KPYY, and numbered 1101 up to 1143. Protected on three and a half sides, we are considered the area’s primary hurricane hole. All moorings are granite block and all ground tackle is inspected annually each spring.

Transient moorings are available for vessels up to 65 feet LOA and slips for vessels up to 60 feet LOA. Our moorings vary in weight and swing area so advanced reservations are highly recommended. No launch service is provided, so bring your dinghy. We have a dinghy dock and our restroom facility (with shower), located at our front office entrance, is open 24/7.

Kittery, along with its neighbor Portsmouth, NH (across the river), are recognized for their historic, cultural, and scenic assets as well as their many restaurants and shopping/ supply amenities. There are public docks available in Pepperrell Cove as well as in Portsmouth if you'd like to travel over by water.
