3rd visit and the facilities are a good as they were 2 years ago when new! Docks are an easy approach even in wind and tide and Dan makes the process even easier. Less than 10 minutes to waterfront shops and restaurants walking past historic homes and close to a neighborhood grocery.

This is my top pick for marinas on the ICW. Everything is spotless, new and topnotch. We usually stay at Towne Creek across the river, but the great reviews got me to give "the Marina with the funny name" a try. Reviews are spot on. Well-lighted, wide concrete floating piers. CLEAN. Beautiful clubhouse with wonderful comfy captains lounge with morning coffee. Three sets FREE large commercial washers/dryers that can handle bedding, etc. Outstanding service. Can't say enough about how well run this marina is. The loaner car was the easiest process ever. A clipboard with sign-out sheet and a key hanging in the laundry room. The loaner is a minivan in good condition. Loaner bikes, too. Slip fee was a bit less than Towne Creek. No pool, but we never use them anyway. Dog friendly. Lots of good restaurants within .5 mile. Blue Moon Bistro is excellent. Great chef. The nearby Food Lion was surprisingly nice and well-stocked (Publix spoiled me for grocery stores).
Because of the hurricane, we extended our stay from 3 to 7 days. Great weekly discount made it affordable (total cost was under $700 with 50amp). Even with that bad weather and river traffic, the outside T-head was not an issue. Very little rocking even with the bad winds. Would gladly stay here again. (48 Kadey-Krogan trawler)

This was our second stay at Homer Smith Marina. We were planning on only staying 1 night but due to a Tropical Storm, we decided to stay for a week. The floating docks, Captain’s Lounge, free laundry, and courtesy car make this a great marina. Dockmaster is friendly and knowledgeable. It’s an easy walk to the downtown area that has a lot of restaurants and shops. We will definitely come back to Homer Smith Marina again.

Great marina in a lovely town. Walking distance to many shops and restaurants.
Really appreciated the Dan's orientation to the marina's facilities and amenities.

We stayed for 2 nights and it was great! Dan was very helpful catching lines and helping us dock on a windy day. Facilities are top notch! Courtesy car was nice for getting groceries a couple miles away. Downtown Beaufort was an easy walk from the marina. We can’t wait to stay here again!

Weather had our plans changing and the marina staff just kept adjusting our reservations without complaint. When we finally arrived, we were so pleased to find everything as beautiful as we had read. Free front loading washers, clean, large private bathrooms with beautiful tile showers, and a courtesy van to help with our provisioning! Definitely will be back on our return south!

Marina is exceptional -- docks, facilities, location to downtown. Slight current is advantage. Dan is exemplary -- helping with arrival and docking.

Dock hand is amazing and so helpful. Filled up with fuel, pumped out and then pulled into our slip. Marina very clean with free washer/dryer and marine vehicle if you need to do a grocery run. Beaufort is just a short walk - great town!

Great place, second time there and it was as good as the first! Dan (Dockmaster) is an awesome guy and very helpful and knowledgeable. He spotted me coming in and made sure I came in the proper way. Once at the dock he tied us up and got us situated with fuel and electric. Gave us a great dinner recommendation also!

Beautiful docks, great lounge, free laundry, very friendly staff and a loaner car who could ask for more
About Homer Smith Docks and Marina
Homer Smith’s is the go-to Carteret County marina for guests and locals, alike. Located on Beaufort’s Towne Creek, we feature 30 slips, accommodating vessels up to 100 feet. More slips are to come, as we continually grow our facilities.
Our state-of-the-art marina caters to recreational boaters, sailors, fishing trollers, area residents and seasonal visitors. Our boat slip rental leasing options allow for brief visitors and those looking for a long-term stay. We’re proud to be serving everyone looking to be in Beaufort, Morehead City, Atlantic Beach, or just anywhere on Crystal Coast.
The docks that make up Homer Smith are constructued of a BMT ML-32 floating dock system built by Bellingham Marine, the largest dock manufacturer in the U.S. Our decking is made of Brazilian hardwood, also known as IPE. The main walkways are 10 foot wide, making them more stable than others in our area. Our docks are secured by 12-inch concrete piles and the finger piers will be 32-foot long with bumper piles at each end. The harbor lights are made with marina electrical equipment and supply all power needs for up to 100-foot motor yachts.
