We had a great two night stay at Chuck’s Marina. The location is close enough to town to walk but far enough out to be quiet and relaxing. The restrooms are really nice and their store has nice logo wear. And the Staff are super friendly and helpful. This is our favorite place to stop in southern Maine.

Thank you, Denis, for your kind words. It was a pleasure having you and your beautiful vessel, At Last, at the docks. We look forward to seeing you next year. Happy sailing!

This was one of our favorite stops of all time! From the time we pulled up to the dock everyone was friendly, pleasant, and willing to help. The facility is amazing. Clean. Well laid out. And convenient. Also the location is great. We had a great walk to Town and found some amazing shos and good food. We will be back many times!!!!

Always a great place to spend a few days before moving on. Dockhands are on point and Amy and Chris in the office a great to deal with and bring a wealth of knowledge about the area. Highly suggest.

We enjoyed our stay at Chicks Marina. Amy was very accommodating with booking changes and dinner suggestions. Tyler and his team were very helpful with guiding us to our slip and helping us tie up. Rudder, the dock dog was also a nice addition. He visited us regularly to make sure we were comfortable. We had dinner down the street (10 minute walk) at Port Fish & Chop House. Dinner and service were excellent. Great place for a sunset cocktail. Kennebunkport/Chicks Marina is a great stop if you're cruising to Maine. We will be back. Highly recommend.

Annual trip with the Grandkids to Chicks was awesome. The weather was gorgeous. Amy, Chris, Tyler and the whole crew are always outstanding. The Marina facility along with all the merchandise is equally outstanding. The restaurants, the shopping and the fishing were great as well. Grandaughter even caught a 38 inch striper in the river!!! See you next year. See you next year.

A great place to stay. Was there for 2 nights. Had a mega yacht block me in and I couldn’t see the harbor🤣. The marina was very considerate and moved me to a location where it was the best seat in the house!!I’ll be sure to visit again thanks again!!!

Chicks could possibly be the best small marina on the planet! The week we spent this year was our second year in a row, and we plan on making it an annual event. From the amazing facilities, to the warm, welcoming and helpful staff, we look forward to our trip every year! (and of course Rudder) The location is perfect, the town is fun! The staff is amazing! Can't say enough! Thanks to Amy and team for another great stay. See you in 2027! Jeff and Jayne

Chicks Marina is outstanding! The staff could not be nicer—always available, attentive, and ready to help with anything we need. The services are excellent, and the friendliness and genuine welcome from the owner and his family truly set this place apart. It’s rare to find a marina that combines professionalism with such a personal touch, and without a doubt, we will continue to return. Sincerely, Bridging The Gap
Marina Response:
Jamie & Jonathan, Thanks so much for your kind words. We really enjoy having you on the dock and appreciate all the goodies you bring for the crew. We're looking forward to next year and have you already penciled you in for the 4th. Have a great winter, and please stay in touch.

Amy and the entire dock team were super! Very professional, friendly and helpful. Nice docks, nice atmosphere, fine amenities and great location - 1/2 mile from Dock Square and 1/2 mile from Colony Beach. They'll scoot you around in golf cart if you'd like too. We will be back!
Marina Response:
Hi Vanessa, we love seeing new faces on the docks and are so happy you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to seeing you back soon.

Sparkling clean facilities with staff who couldn’t be any friendlier or more helpful. Amy, Tyler and the entire crew were amazing from our arrival to our departure. I wish all marinas were this exceptional.

We the crew of Tranquillo enjoyed our stay at Chicks Marina. The staff called us before we got to the dock to give us directions coming up the canal. They helped us with our lines and helped us with all of the hook ups. Chris and Amy at the office were super helpful telling us about their town. Chris helped the chef find fresh fish and lobster. Chris took her around in her car and waited at each store. Amy was helpful telling us the other places to get supplies. Don’t forget to say hi to Rudder while you’re staying at Chicks. Captain Fred
Marina Response:

About Chicks Marina

Kennebunkport is a destination worthy of its memorable trip, and for 56 years, Chicks Marina has been synonymous with boating on the Kennebunk River. Founded by local icon Booth Chick and owned and operated by the Katz family for 37 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 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 and various nearby sandy beaches.

Our first-class facilities are the finest in Maine and are continuously upgraded to ensure your stay is safe, pleasant, and memorable. Chicks offer 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 and 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 various 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 can 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, and block and cube ice. Chicks Marina is dog-friendly! We ask that you keep your pet leashed, per Kennebunkport leash laws.

Chicks Marina can welcome boats up to 165', and its floating dock system is dredged to 7ft at MLW.
