Location & Overview Harbortown Marina sits on the west side of the San Pablo River portion of the Intracoastal Waterway in Jacksonville, Florida, near Atlantic and Neptune Beach. For more than two decades, this privately owned residential marina has provided secure, long-term dockage for boat owners looking for a quiet, well-managed waterfront environment. Its location near Atlantic Boulevard offers efficient access to the Atlantic Ocean, the St. Johns River, downtown Jacksonville, Fernandina Beach, and St. Augustine, while keeping vessels sheltered from heavy commercial traffic.

Slips & Dock Infrastructure Harbortown Marina consists of 166 slips in 40, 50, and 60 foot sizes, along with three T-head docks built to handle vessels exceeding 60 feet. All slips sit on durable Bellingham concrete floating docks with dockside fresh water and individually metered electrical service at each pedestal, allowing owners to manage their own consumption. The marina is uniquely sheltered — surrounded on three sides by four-story residential buildings that block wind and weather and keep the water noticeably calmer than most marinas on the Intracoastal.

A Private Residential Marina Harbortown Marina functions as a residential boating community rather than a commercial docking facility, with fully gated access to both the docks and the on-site parking area limited to slip owners and approved lessees. Live-aboard vessels are not permitted, and the marina does not operate a fuel dock or pump-out station on site. Because boats here are docked long-term and often sit unattended between outings, many owners rely on DS Diving for underwater hull cleaning — clearing marine growth from the hull, running gear, and through-hull points so a vessel is ready to run whenever its owner returns.

Slips & Boats for Sale Both slip ownership and lease opportunities at Harbortown Marina are handled through individual slip owners, and boats listed for sale here benefit from being kept in a secure, protected, well-maintained environment. Buyers evaluating a vessel at the marina can bring in DS Diving for a pre-purchase inspection, with a diver assessing hull condition, bottom paint, and running gear below the waterline and filming the entire inspection so the buyer sees exactly what the diver saw before closing.

Dock Maintenance & Piling Care As an association of slip owners responsible for its own dock infrastructure, Harbortown Marina depends on the long-term condition of its floating dock system and supporting pilings. DS Diving works with marinas and associations throughout Northeast Florida on underwater piling inspections, piling cleaning, preventative pile wrapping, and concrete reinforcement — routine care that clears away barnacles, algae, and wood-boring marine organisms and can add 10 or more years to the life of dock pilings.
