Always a pleasure. Looking forward to our return.

The only docks on the island that can safely accommodate a 50m. Staff is great and the pier is private. Our new home on the island!

Was a great time in MV

Great value. Everyone there was helpful and cooperative. We definitely needed to use the fender boards that they have there. We stayed at the wharf to the east which has an address of 158 Beach Road. We needed to know that for our ride pick up. We have a 28' boat so we had to climb up to the dock. No problem for us, but we picked up our elderly passengers at a different dock just to be safe. Won't hesitate to stay there again.

Vineyard Haven is a busy harbor. Tisbury Wharf has some small cruise ships in and out that are not ideal neighbors but when they are gone it’s a great location. Craig and crew are very friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to provide a place to have an urgent zoom meeting.

Great location. Staff helped us with docking and were very helpful. I Was happy that i read the reviews in advance about the docks so that we were prepared with fender boards. Marina also has some you can borrow.

Friendly place away from the bustle of town. A little quieter with nice docks and friendly staff

by Peter K. - Verified user on Aug 04, 2023

Not like it was. No bumper guards on the pilings. Good friendly, inexperienced kids on the dock. The worst fender boards ever. Completely deflated.

Marina Response:

Thank you, Peter! Great to have you with us this summer!

Great dock thank you

Before arriving we called the marina to let them know that we will arrive soon, and the person who answered the phone told us that marina will be closing at 6:00 pm. When we arrived the only person there was the fuel dock’s worker.The dock master was not there, and the docks don’t have any protection on it. They have polls no finger docks. The person in charge show up next they to told us that we need to move because they have a bigger boat coming. They blocked our view, the internet never work and the bathroom were horrible. They charged us for the service they never provided.

This was last minute in July so I was lucky to be able to reserve a 2 day stay. The other marinas in town were full. Even tho the other two wharves closer to the main offce did not fill up, we were placed on the farthest West pier which required a decent walk to get to the facilites.Told to slide forward because other boats were coming in however only one other boat came in and was on the other side. We saw a dock hand upon our arrival who met us in response to our radio call and then never saw anyone again. The pier has no fenders or protection on the pilings and because it is a fixed pier required contant attention to the fenders as the tide changed - even with the minimal 2' range. Only on the last evening did I disscover a cache of fender boards in a pile that I was able to rig on a piling that worked a lot better than my single ball fenders. It just would have been nice to have been made aware of them by the dock hand. The shower/head building seemed pretty new and clean. The harbor is great and the wharf company is well situated . I would have roamed more if I hadn't been worried about fending off from the pier. To be fair the weather was varible and the wind kept things moving more than I'm sure , the usual. A relatively minor fix to the wharfs by adding protection on the outside would go a long way.

About Tisbury Wharf Company

Originally named Holms Hole, Vineyard Haven was the last home port of Joshua Slocum and his yacht Spray. It also was a historic anchorage for coastal sailing ships waiting for a favorable wind and tide. Today Vineyard Haven is the home of classic sailing yachts, boat builders, bakeries, restaurants, car rentals, bicycle rentals, supermarket, and year-round ferry services to the mainland. All of this is within walking distance of our docks. Airport, golf courses, galleries and farmer’s markets are reached by regular bus service or taxi. This is a convenient port for visiting, crew changes and reprovisioning. We can also act as a mail drop. Vessels from 25 – 270 ft draft to 12ft.

Fuel Dock is opened when the Flag is Up, 0800 - 1700 high season. High flow nozzle available for speedier tank fills. Bulk fueling of 2000 gals or more can be accommodated on request. North Wharf is a sister fuel dock in Edgartown.

Note: Harbor is exposed to wind and waves from North to Northeast. You may be advised to move your vessel, or the docks may be closed for the safety of vessels and facilities. Consider this in your passage planning.
