DS Diving Service
Jacksonville, Florida
Location & Overview Port 32 Jacksonville is a full-service marina set at the intersection of the St. Johns and Ortega Rivers in Jacksonville, Florida, about 25 miles upriver from the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. The marina is conveniently close to downtown Jacksonville and within walking distance of a variety of shops and restaurants, making it a practical home port for boaters who want easy access to the city along with a protected, upriver setting.
Amenities & Lifestyle Beyond dockage, Port 32 Jacksonville leans into a full boating lifestyle, with a modern clubhouse, heated pool, pool deck, and hot tub, along with private shower rooms, complimentary laundry, outdoor grills, and picnic areas. Key card access and dockhand service add convenience and security, while individual slip-side pump-out keeps day-to-day maintenance simple for both transient visitors and long-term slip holders. The marina's community events and membership camaraderie give Port 32 more of a homeport feel than a simple stopover.
Storm Protection & Boat Care Port 32 Jacksonville markets its location as a hurricane hole, offering storm protection that many marinas closer to the open coast can't provide. Even with that natural shelter, boats can still take on damage during severe weather or while relocating to safety, and DS Diving's salvage services — including afloat salvage, harbor salvage, and wreck removal — are available to help owners in the region recover if a storm does cause damage. For everyday upkeep, DS Diving's underwater hull cleaning keeps hulls and running gear free of marine growth between visits from the dockhand staff.
Ongoing Maintenance For long-term slip holders who rely on Port 32's dockhand service to keep an eye on their boat day to day, DS Diving offers routine maintenance inspections below the waterline, with each inspection filmed and provided to the owner so they can see the condition of their hull and running gear without having to be on-site themselves.
