Very clean facility, friendly and helpful Harbor and Dock Masters. Lots of supply stores and dining nearby. I stayed on the mooring for several nights and then moved to the dock when I had to swap out damaged batteries. Will definitely come back again!

Thanksgiving Day 2024. Hatteras 42' LRC. I made the reservation on the fly as we decided to NOT try the Cape Fear River due to the wind! We snagged the last mooring ball available in the mooring field! Larry the dockmaster is amazingly friendly and courteous. He called to ensure we had arrived safely and encouraged us to call him if we needed anything!

The mooring was clean and easy to pick up. Town dinghy dock is about 1/4 mile away but the town is dry nice

We have not left the boat yet. The moorings look to be in great condition. We are happy for a rest day here in anticipation of big winds tomorrow.

Larry Denning, the Harbor Master, was a pleasure to work with. We will definitely be back!

Always a great place to stay

I just really like mooring here. It’s pretty, it’s quiet (at least not at peak season) and the boaters are good about honoring the no wake zone. It’s a very pleasant ride to the dinghy docks and there are some great restaurants and bars an easy walk from the south dinghy dock.

Very kind and accommodating dock master when we needed some extra time for repair.

I’m giving this a 5 because of the staff especially Larry. A boat had taken our mooring. Larry gave us a dock in the town and adjusted the price. There is a free pump out. We didn’t take any power ( not sure if the power was on). The beach was a 5 minute walk and Publix and 2 hardware stores were within a15 minute walk. Lots of restaurants to choose from. Don’t miss the Fat Pelican for a beer. We would return.

We enjoy bringing our 42' sailboat up to the mooring field a couple of times a year from nearby Southport. The moorings are kept in excellent shape and the dinghy landing close by makes shore excursions easy. The staff is welcoming, friendly and responsive - yep talking about you Larry. Can't speak to the docks but the mooring field is a treasure.

Larry was great and very helpful with his knowledge and experiences

We had a good experience! Nicest harbormasters we have ever met! Very friendly and accommodating! The Marina was walkable to many nice restaurants, seafood market, hardware stores, etc. groceries, etc. We had our sails delivered here and even the UPS gentlemen were very nice, flexible and very helpful! Would definitely visit this marina again!

All good quite night

by Steve F. - Verified user on Nov 02, 2024
Found an available ball and moored up. It would be good to pet people know they'll need their own painter/painter bridle ready for the type of end they have. Dinghied to town, ate, drank and had a good time!

Nice spot! Quiet, no wake

by Amy L. - Verified user on Nov 02, 2024
Pulled in after dark and couldn’t get the anchor set, so quickly made a mooring reservation on Dockwa. A few minutes later, Larry called and confirmed our reservation. Super efficient! Nice quiet mooring field. Would definitely stay here again.

Cannot say enough nice things about this place. Harbor master very welcoming and helpful. The moorings are in top condition. Nice town, nicer people.
Marina Response:
Thanks Gian for your stay with us at Carolina Beach and your nice comments! Larry

by April S. - Verified user on Oct 22, 2024
We enjoyed using the new catamaran slip instead of the mooring balls this time through. There are two convenient dinghy docks. One in town and one close to the beach. A new Publix is an easy walk from the town docks. There's a great little sandwich shop/convenience store by the beach dock. Then there's Larry! What a terrific Harbor master. Love this town!

We love staying on a mooring at Carolina Beach! The process is super easy and inexpensive…while two dinghy dock locations allow access to the beach, restaurants, and/or the grocery store.

by Mahlon S. - Verified user on Oct 15, 2024
Each time we stay at Carolina Beach Marina moorings I call and talk to Larry the harbor master . He's always pleasant and cordial and very helpful with any issues. Kudos to the person that hired him for this position !! We'll be back !!
