Great staff and facilities were also great.

S/V B Emz. We stayed at the marina for 5 weeks whilst we flew back home for a 3 week period. The marina staff were very helpful, facilities were great, and the boating atmosphere good fun. I would definitely recommend the marina to fellow liveaboards.

The staff was slow to respond to my dockwa reservations, and I had to call after three days to ask if they had received it. I arranged Docking and slip for a late arrival, but the staff didn’t have any record of the agreement or assignment the next morning. It’s a busy marina and once the staff realized the mistake were accommodating. I spent a full season in this marina and while I like it, management and administration of the marina service is average.

Great staff! Easy in/out. Good prices. I really hate that the pool is gone though!

Pleasant stay, super convenient location, and staff is very friendly. Seems pricing has increased significantly since being acquired— docking was quite a bit more than a stay last year. Bathrooms and laundry are very nice and clean. Some of the docks need a lot of TLC or replacement. We could stop over here again in the future, but first seek elsewhere with a less expensive dockage.

Great marina we had access to everything by using the water taxi service, which is steps from the slips

5/7/25 - Just finished another excellent stay. The crew were great getting us in. June 2024 - Excellent dock help on arrival. Great marina, easy to access Portsmouth and Norfolk restaurants and activities. Front desk very helpful, bathrooms /showers and laundry room clean and conveniently located in marina. Rick, General Manager, checked in on us regarding our stay prior to our departure and provided us with great information on our next destination. Would definitely recommend.

From the minute we booked our stay at Tidewater Marina we had exceptional service! When we reached the marina, Rick and Kaitlyn were there to help us dock and get settled in. Kaitlyn took the time to suggest some good local restaurants including the restaurant at the marina, Fish and Slips! We made this our first stop and enjoyed a great happy hour and even bought ICW mile Marker 0 T-shirts!! The weather kept us a day later than expected and it was not a problem. Before heading north on the Chesapeake, Rick touched base with other marinas north to get feedback on the weather for us in that direction. We look forward to visiting again in the fall on way back south!

Great stay at Tidewater. Good dockhands/staff to get us secured. Clean bathrooms/shower. Laundry accepts credit cards/no quarters but was a little far from our slip so got some exercise in. Had good conversation from local live aboards there at slip. FishnSlips restaurant was good and convenient. We did walk the town and caught their Saturday morning Farmer's Market. Did not walk town at night as some locals told us to be careful. Waterfront walk was pretty - even caught a cruise ship leaving port Sunday afternoon. Marina is dog friendly but our slip was a little from from marina exit to walk our dog - but he fared well until he got to grass. No comment on fuel as we did not need it but the DIY pumpout was the best machine we've used yet!

You’ll have a front row seat to everything the Portsmouth and Norfolk have to offer!
