One of my favorite marinas to visit. Scenery is beautiful, friendly welcoming staff, great showers. You can Walk to town in 10 mins or beaches. Calm water, great coffee, truly a New England gem.

Amy, Tyler and pup Rudder were all so welcoming. Super clean, charming facilities. Coffee and treats during the day. Free shuttling to local attractions. But conveniently located to walk to a lot of great restaurants, shopping, galleries and beach!

Amy and the rest of her group were great. Ideal location with great facilities for our 63 foot Riva. Drove us to the White Barn Inn for a fabulous dinner and to rent bicycles. We will be back.
Thanks Amy

Hi Bruce- We're so glad you enjoyed your time at Chicks. We appreciate your kind words- and so will Rudder! Hope to see you next season!by Brian W. on Aug 26, 2023
Looking for a well operated, clean, courteous and great location of a marina with clean docks that won't foot track on to your clean boat? Then Chick's is it. From a welcoming Emily who will take your reservation, to Amy, the manager, who is not only accommodating, she is kind and caring. Check out the offered Chick's Marina clothing that Amy has personally selected... high quality at a fair price! Tyler the dock manager, along with Addi are very attentive, competent and a pleasure to talk with. They have a shuttle to downtown and Gooch's Beach and although they don't charge for it, we always leave a tip for their kind hospitality! Oh, and btw, when you are there, be sure to say hi to "Rudder!"
Marina Response:
Dear Mike & Sue,
We are touched by your kind words and 5 star review. Thank you from the entire crew and we can't wait for your return visit especially "Rudder" :-)by Dick H. - Verified user on Aug 24, 2023
First Class marina. Docks are in great shape, very clean facility and the entire staff wants to make sure your stay is memorable in a great way. Always asking to help, take your trash, delivering amazon packages to your boat etc. This will be our marina when we are visiting Kennebunkport. Have stayed at other marinas in Kennebunkport and none compartment to Chicks. Water can get skinny in areas when entering Kennebunkport, recommend entering at mid to high tide.
Marina Response:
Thank you Dick. We are touched by your kind words and love seeing our repeat customers. We all take great pride in our marina and love to hear positive feedback. Look forward to having Viaggio back on the docks next year.by Marion G. - Verified user on Aug 23, 2023
Been boating since 1986. Boston to Caribbean. One of the cleanest, best managed, most customer oriented marinas we have ever stayed at.

We spent several nights at Chick's Marina and it was one of the best of not the best experience we've had cruising the coast of Maine. Amy and Chris are wonderful, so helpful and trying to please us, We had Tyler on the Dock and he and his partner are again just amazing. There are several options in Kennebunkport but for our time and money there's none better than Chick's. We will stay again next year on our trip to Maine.

From the pre-arrival information, the line assistance upon arrival, power supply, the marina store until you depart but most important the outstanding friendliness and hospitality of the marina personnel, Amy, Chris, the dockhands (and their cute dogs), it always feels like coming home. There's no overselling. They deliver everything they say and more.

Bailed out from a trip to Portsmouth from Portland due to heavy weather. Grabbed a slip here and they couldn't have been nicer. Easy walk into town where we grabbed a bite to eat based on their recommendation. Off season so really quiet at the dock.
Marina Response:
Hi Bill, Glad you had a nice visit. We appreciate your 5 star review and look forward to seeing you next year. Thank youby Rich M. on Sep 22, 2022
This a a really unique marina. The setting is fantastic - a small marina on a quiet cove, right near town. There is loads to do in every direction -- biking, walking, shopping, etc. Mostly though, Chicks is run by folks that really care. The level of service and quality facilities reflect owners and employees that are best at what they do.

We spent 6 wonderful days at Chicks Marina. The staff are all professional and personal. We were last at this marina in 2018 and were not pleased with the service or friendliness of the place. It was clear that they needed a management change. Their new manager, Amy, has done a remarkable job of creating an inviting and welcoming atmosphere. We highly recommend!

Extremely nice marina. Very small and a little pricey but if you can get in it is definitely worth it. Very tight channel in the river during the approach. We were met by 2 excellent dockhands who were very efficient. The facilities were impeccable. Great floating docks, beautiful main office and store, spotless restrooms/showers and a convenient laundry. They even have a shuttle to run you into town if you want (also an easy walk). We’ll worth the visit.

Excellent facilities and extremely helpful, friendly staff. Very short walk to town restaurants and shops, but staff are eager to drive their fun six seater electric cart so be prepared for multiple offers.
Transient docking is on outside edge of a long face dock but it’s calm and boat traffic obeys the no wake speed. We came in mid tide and current was minimal. Will come again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Chicks. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a bit of an issue getting electric, but the dockhands took care of it immediately! We were originally put on the face dock and that was great because the (no wake zone) river traffic is fun to watch. We were moved to a finger pier, but still had a nice view and could watch the kids jumping off the bridge right off our bow. The facilities are great. Nice bathrooms, clean shared spaces with well maintained bbq's and the swag shop if fully loaded with excellent logo stuff. I walked to town most of the time, but the eco-car is super cool and always at the ready to take you someplace. Great place!

Every few years we travel from Cape Cod to Down East Maine and always stay at Chick's Marina. It is by far the cleanest and most professionally run marina that we stay at! The crew is awesome! Always perfect in every way!

This was our first visit to Chicks. It was recommended by long time boaters from our home marina.
The entire staff was very helpful and friendly. The facility is clean, well maintained and attractive. Great proximity to all the attractions of downtown Kennebunkport.
Wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend this marina

Very nice marina. We were there in early June. It was quiet due to early season and Covid. Staff was very helpful and stayed a little late to help us tie up after a rougher and slower than expected trip there. Hope to stay there again soon.

Thank you for the 5 star review. We appreciate your kind words and look forward seeing you next year.by Anonymous on Aug 11, 2020
Amazing staff and immaculate facilities. Nice family atmosphere and having Rudder roaming around the docks saying hi to everyone is just the icing on the cake. Being dog friendly just says something about these folks. They are happy to shuttle you around and their dock managers are the absolute best. The store is extremely unique and I am happy to say I have my Chicks Gear now and very happy. They are kind, open to you having guests in and out and COVID 19 conscious. Excellent stay. I recommend them highly. Thank you again...John Bennett 100 Ton Captain, and happy customer.

Our getaway to K'port could not have been better. The marina is pristine and the staff is absolutely top notch. They were ready for us upon arrival and offered assistance in docking. We were always offered rides into town and were graced by the presence of Rudder. We will certainly look forward to returning. Highly recommend!

Amy and all of the staff at chicks Marina are absolutely outstanding. They have the best customer service there is. My dog wound up getting his nail caught in the track of a my boat, Amy in the staff help the so much gave us all kinds of 1st aid products for my dog. They were also so helpful with everything at the Marina. The Marina is so well kept it's beautiful it's maintained perfectly. If you are looking for a Marina to stand I would pick this one over any Marina.

Thank you for the 5 star review. We look forward to seeing you again !!by Charlotte K. on Apr 23, 2020
Be it that I used to manage and live at Chicks- I'm a little bit of a biased audience BUT Chicks is a very special place: If you're a transient vessel and you want to experience Kennebunkport (my hometown), Chicks is the best way to do it! They're home to the largest and deepest capacity slips and they're the ONLY fuel dock in town! The dockmaster, Tyler, is super helpful and the dockhand staff (especially Henry, Adam and Schuyler) are top notch... I'm so grateful for my time at Chicks and many of those customers I met there have become lifelong friends!

Beautiful location close to town. Price high and strict no refund policy and no pump out service. Staff was nice and beautiful area.
by barry h. on Sep 17, 2019
Tyler and Adam as well as Rudder were great, very help full. Great local, reasonable fuel and clean.
by Brian H. - Verified user on Sep 17, 2019
Great stay! Staff was exelent, they were standing at the peir waiting for me to pull in. Kennebunk river was easier than expected to navigate. Short walk to town. Can't believe how helpful and atentive the staff was, they treated me as if i pulled in on one of the Hinkleys they had tied up, despite the contrary. Will be back next year.
by James W. - Verified user on Sep 16, 2019
As always, the staff could not have been nicer...they were always available to assist, with any of our needs...it is without a doubt a marina that we will continue revisiting!

This marina was a bit on the pricy side, but the service was top notch, the facilities were clean, and the staff was friendly. I would definitely return.
Marina Response:
We acknowledge that Chicks Marina is not the least expensive place to stay in Kennebunkport, however our crew takes great pride in providing the finest transient facilities in town. Thank you Valerian for your kind words and for visiting us!by Peter g. on Aug 22, 2019
Sailing to Chick's from Perkins Cove for the first time was a perfect day. The Chick's crew waved us in as we approached the dock, helped us secure our lines given the swift current, and was extremely helpful during our short stay. Making the arrangements via Dockwa was very efficient. Surrounded by Hinkley's impressed my crew. Everything at Chick's is perfectly maintained. Well done!

First time at Chicks and definitely not the last. We stayed two separate nights and it felt like we were returning home. Charlotte and her team are first class. We truly appreciated the pre arrival information, the smiling faces that welcomed us and the follow up once we left. Facilities were clean, and the coffee and muffins a treat. Thank you - Blue Horizons

The facilities are nice but the people are even nicer. Great place to visit
by David S. on Jul 21, 2019
The staff at Chick's, as well as its location make this a wonderful destination or stopover. They couldn't be nicer or more helpful --- prior to arrival, while docking or refueling at docks that already have fenders, during the stay, and when departing. We had to leave earlier than planned due to a death in the family, but we will return.
Marina Response:
Ahoy Dastrau! The crew here thanks you for your wonderful review! We were sorry to see you depart ahead of schedule and wish you and your family a safe return trip home to your loved ones. We are so sorry for your loss but hope to see you again soon. It was a pleasure to have you stay with us! P.S. So glad you liked the fenders!by Tim M. on Jul 08, 2019
This was our second 4th of July week at Chick’s Marina and it is in a word: stellar. From the incredible pre-arrival contact, follow-up, and personal attention paid to every transient, to the marina manager, Charlotte, dock hands Henry, Tyler, Eric, Jake, Schuyler, and the great marina dogs Sophie and Rudder and all of them. Each and every one sport a smile and a can-do attitude going above and beyond in every way. Coffee, muffins, Whoopi pies, and the coolest marina merchandise around, the place hums like a top. Fuel dock for gas and diesel so convenient and hoses that can reach virtually any slip on the dock. Spot-on radio contact and docking assistance makes your arrival with or without current and at any tide simple and stress free. Thank you gentleman and ladies. They have ice and most of the basic essentials in the small supply store and can get you most anything you may need. Restaurant recommendations, piping hot showers, laundry and excellent fast (even for Netflix) internet and reliable streaming Wi-Fi. Water hoses placed around with great water pressure and nozzles at the ready. You will enjoy watching the big striper right amongst the docks and the fast and courteous golf cart shuttle around town. Even the trex dock material is impeccably clean and all lines neatly coiled all day every day. Secure gates and parking make for a restful nights sleep. We used the clean and new propane grills and enjoyed several sunsets from the Adirondack chairs on the deck overlooking the river. Simply cannot beat the location, amenities, service, and friendly welcome at this marina. We hadn’t planned a second trip from Boston to ME this year, but now we surely will thanks to the high level of service and comfort at Chick’s. Looking forward to next year already. And our guests have already asked to return as well.
Marina Response:
Ahoy Alliance crew! We are already missing you on our docks! Thank you for joining us over the Fourth- Your festive decor and smiling faces were a fantastic addition for the holiday! It's been a fun adventure to bring in new brands like Helly Hansen and Sun Bum. Thank you for joining us- Looking forward to having you back here soon!by Carolyn C. - Verified user on Jun 16, 2019
First class, beautiful, great location, and friendly!

Upon my first visit, I was the only sailing vessel in the marina. The dock staff was attentive, the restrooms were clean and their Ship Store had the best branded apparel of any of the large marinas or boatyards I’ve been to. This place has the ability and wherewithal to handle huge boats but still has the feel of a family establishment. I’ll be coming back!

Friendly staff, very clean and modern facility. Easy walk to town and the best restaurants.

My wife and I spend the past weekend at Chicks for the first time. Chicks is definitely a five star marina. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful, the docks are in great shape, easy access in and out of the marina and the facilities are clean and top notch. The marina has a great store with a nice lounge and patio.
From the marina it is a very short stroll to town where they have great restaurants and shops.
Charlotte and the crew at Chicks made it an outstanding weekend !

If you find yourself traveling to Maine, & you're looking for a great marina to spend time at this summer, please find your way to Chick's Marina, Kennebunkport. Charlotte & her staff will make your stay more of an experience, rather than just a stopover. From the minute you arrive you're greeted with the smiling faces of Skyler & Jake. When you reach the marina office, where Jennifer was to check us in, there are freshly baked "whoopie pies" waiting for you. If you need a ride into town, well, Charlotte will be happy to assist with their electric 6 seater car. If Newport, RI, were just a bit closer, we would certainly make a monthly trip to Chick's. Until next year, thank you, Charlotte & crew, for making our trip to Maine such a warm & wonderful experience!
Best, Capt. Michael, M/Y MISS LIZA
Marina Response:
Ahoy MISS LIZA! The crew here at Chicks so enjoyed having you dockside! Although we can't bring our little town of Kennebunkport closer to Newport, we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. And hopefully, Jennifer filled you up with enough whoopie pies to tide you over until next season!

Chicks Marina is a fabulous marina in Kennebunkport. Charlotte, The GM is wonderful, friendly, engages with the boaters. Charlotte will help to get an answer to any question you might have. The dockhands, in the blue teal shirts, are friendly and go the extra mile to ensure that all needs of their boaters are met. The marina is clean and the facilities are up to date. I highly recommend this marina if you are in the Kennebunkport area. We will see you again.

Thank you very much for the five stars! We take great pride in our facilities and our team!About Chicks Marina
Kennebunkport is a destination worthy of its own special trip and for 54 years Chicks Marina has been the name synonymous with boating on the Kennebunk River. Founded by local icon, Booth Chick, and owned and operated by the Katz family for 35 seasons, Chicks’ goal is to provide you with the highest level of service from the moment you make your reservation until the time you depart. Chicks is located just a short walk from Dock Square, the center of Kennebunkport’s historic seaport community. While in town you will find unique shops, galleries and other attractions. There are dozens of restaurants within a short distance from the marina as well as a variety of nearby sandy beaches.
Our first-class facilities are the finest in Maine and are continuously upgraded to ensure that your stay will be a safe, pleasant and memorable one. Chicks offers transient dockage, seasonal summer slips and heated indoor winter storage. Chicks’ floating dock and piling system was completely replaced only a few seasons ago, with upgraded electrical (30/50/100 amp) and water systems. The large open face dock and slips are dredged to 7 feet at MLW comfortably accommodate vessels up to 165 feet. Chicks is the only marina in the Kennebunkport area to offer 91 Octane gasoline and ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel. Most boats can be conveniently refueled while in their own slip. Fuel discounts are available for bulk purchases, seasonal slip holders and winter storage customers. Please inquire with our Marina Manager for pricing details.
The Chicks Marina staff are at your service to arrange a variety of concierge services including restaurant reservations, car rentals, boat washing, general maintenance and diving work. During your stay we encourage you to enjoy the use of our sundeck and patio complete with Adirondack chairs, picnic benches, sun umbrellas and gas grills. There is also comfortable seating in our indoor lounge area. Full bathrooms with showers and laundry facilities are also located on site. Our complimentary 6-passenger electric GEM vehicle is available to shuttle you around town or to local beaches. And speaking of complimentary, your stay includes free coffee and baked goods each morning and whoopie pies and other treats each afternoon. Our Ship Store sells a variety of Chicks’ branded apparel including hats and clothing, cold drinks, block and cube ice. Chicks Marina is dog friendly! We do ask that you keep your pet leashed, in accordance with Kennebunkport leash laws.
Chicks Marina can welcome boats up to 165' and their floating dock system is dredged to 7ft at MLW.
