Manchester Harbor is not only lovely and convenient, but also very calm--no wakes from other boats. Easy walk to everything--grocery store, restaurants, etc. The staff is top notch, even though it is not a full-service marina. There is no electric, no laundry, no showers etc, but it is still one of our favorite docks in New England.

This is a perfect dock. The staff are great and the location is awesome. 5 min walk to beach, 1min walk for food and fuel.

Love the town, the Harbormaster was nice. The young man and woman who helped us with our lines were ok. The boy was quite nasty to the girl and I found that offensive. It’s a great spot in a terrific little town. Others should be aware that there are no showers and no electricity.

Great trip, friendly and helpful staff, never worried about the boat as we toured the town and went to the nearby beach. Always a pleasure to dock and Manchester-by-the-Sea

Perfect docking and great guys at the pier to assist. I wish you would add a place to tip them. We didn’t have cash.

Friendly, helpful staff on dock.
Location is great for access to downtown.
Vehicle parking is very, very limited. Also I feel like it's a bit too expensive.

About Town of Manchester-by-the-Sea
Manchester-by-the-Sea is one of Massachusetts’s hidden treasures. The town’s new transient docks offer visiting boaters direct access to the center of this quaint New England town. Right from the docks you can walk to a variety of restaurants, shops, parks and beaches.
Enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants Manchester has to offer, or if you’re looking for a relaxing day on the beach, Singing Beach, is walking distance from the docks. The walk is shaded and you can pick up an ice cream cone or a cup of coffee on the way.
Manchester-by-the-Sea is a beautiful harbor and we look forward to sharing its beauty and character with you.
