It would have been criminal not to put this marina at 5 stars. I bought a sailboat in this marina…read morewith a working engine, 2 weeks after I bought it the engine stopped working (classic). The mechanic I used took forever to fix it but the marina was so nice about everything. They transferred the slip, they checked in on me to see how I was doing, and I when I finally got the engine fixed (almost two moths later) they prorated my stay so I didn't have to pay another full month since I just a week into the next billing. Anytime I had a question they were there, whenever I needed services they were there, it was service with a smile since the day I bought the boat. The only reason I was there so long was because of the mechanic I used for the engine. It was not their mechanic. It's a special engine so it needed a special mechanic. I want to be clear that the work was not being done by the marina. Services are pretty good, they have free electric and water. They'll get you ice, they have pump out and water fill up and they have a full staff working on your boat for almost any type of issue or service. If they don't do it they'll point you in the right direction. I'm glad to leave but sorry this isn't my forever marina, at this point I have been paying for two slips for a couple of months. Heads up, I understand getting out into the bay is trickery if you have a deep draft sailboat.

They also offer boat repairs, dry storage, and have a restaurant and bar on site. Facilities include bathrooms with showers, laundry room, and captains lounge. But afer new live aboard laws went into effect requiring pump out stations at each dock slip, this marina no longer offers live aboard wet slips. They do have water and electricity at each dock slip, and offer wi-fi. Overall nice, well kept, clean marina, with several amenities.

Shell Point Marina is, without question, one of the finest marinas we've ever experienced…read more An amazing boutique marina We stayed here last year, and coming back, it's somehow even better. The property is pristine, the bathrooms look straight out of a magazine, and the new laundry room is beautiful. But what truly sets it apart is the people. especially by General Manager Meleta , who makes you feel like family from the moment you arrive. For us, this place is an escape. Every visit feels like a vacation. And the sunsets? Honestly, we've been to Key West a lot, and these sunsets beat it. Five stars, no hesitation.

I had a very disappointing experience with Shell Point Marina…read more I specifically chose this marina because they offered engine flushing. When I picked up my boat, I noticed the battery switch had been left on. When I asked about it, I was told they don't turn the battery switch off after flushing because they don't operate the boat during the flushing process. That explanation concerned me because the Mercury owner's manual states that the engine must be running in order to properly flush the cooling system. Based on what I was told by the marina, I don't believe my engine was being flushed according to the manufacturer's procedure. As a result, my battery was completely discharged because the battery switch had been left on. In addition to that, I experienced repeated problems with the fuel dock being unavailable and the entrance gate not working properly. In the end, I lost confidence in leaving my boat there. I paid to terminate my contract early so I could bring my boat home and take care of it myself. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I cannot recommend this marina.

Great place to spend and afternoon at the beach! There is a great playground right next to the…read morebeach and some great spots on each side to go fishing. There are 3-4 large pavilions on the beach, along with grills. There are a couple of volleyball courts as well. Showers and restrooms are located near the entrance/exit of the parking lot. A word of caution - there are some sharks in the waters, so you don't want to venture out past the no swimming signs that are clearly posted in the water. Two downsides to this location - there are no waves (I know that's no ones fault!) and the sand/beach area isn't maintained by a staff, so there is grass growing very close to the beach. One could argue that you get that "natural" beach feeling, so to each their own.

I'm in the process of having it detailed and polished as well. the marina puts your boat into the water for you, cleans it when you return from your ride, and puts it back into storage. so convenient! I highly recommend them to anyone who would like to store their boat in dry dock with all conveniences.

One star. I trusted Riverview Marina with my boat, and my final launch there was the worst…read moreexperience. The side and rear camper enclosure windows were removed and tossed in the cabin instead of reinstalled, leaving the boat exposed. Rain got in and ruined my registration, insurance papers, and other documents. Medications got soaked and stained the captain's seat. That damage was preventable. Personal gear also disappeared. My docking boat hook and two dock lines were taken off my boat without permission. Crystal said they had the hook. It was never returned, and neither were the lines. I ended up replacing gear that never should have been taken. Billing was also an issue. The final amount was much higher than the quote, and I never received a clear, itemized invoice. JR installed my windlass, but the chain constantly jammed. Another mechanic later had to remove and reinstall it properly and said it was one of the worst installs he'd seen. The adjustment wrench was never returned. At the work rack, the extension cord for customer use had exposed live wire. When I flagged it, it was brushed off like it was nothing. There was also only one ladder for access; if the mechanic was using it, you couldn't even reach your boat. That's a safety and access failure. And when the office closed at 5 p.m., there was no restroom access. After all this, I was told someone would call me back. That call never came. Boaters should note that depending on tide and draft, getting out at low tide can be difficult or impossible. I expected basic competence and respect for my boat. Instead, I got damage, risks, and excuses. Boaters deserve better.

I was in a covered slip before she moved me, so I didn't have to worry about rain. It rained the night she moved my boat and it ruined ALL my photos of my daughters kindergarten through college photos. Christmas, anniversaries, birthday celebrations ALL lost because she moved my boat without my permission. Then assistant dockmaster Frank stole two of my chairs that were on the dock while I painted my back deck. I never met anyone ruder than Frank, if he's getting a tip he'll be nice..maybe. I witnessed so much rudeness and inequities in the 25 years that I lived there...I could write a book... I don't miss their mismanagement at all. If you get on the wrong side of these people they will treat you very unfairly, because they have the power to remove you and your boat whenever they want to.

There were several trophies to be won such as for best decorated boat. Alas, my boat that we entered here did not win in the parade, but I still had a great time hanging out here with the other like minded boaters. This is a nice local place for boaters of all types to come together and meet with each other for special events or just to chat about the salt life. I have been here many times since then, and always met with friendly crowds. There were 40 of us signed up for the Christmas Boat parade. Several of the boats were really decked out very nicely with tons of lights all over them. My boat had the Frozen theme decorated and lighted up all over it. This is where we met and held our boater safety meetings to go over how to safely maneuver our large group through the the canals. It is a great local place for boaters to gather and plan boating adventures. If you live in the Apollo Beach area I recommend stopping by sometime for a meeting and see if it's something you would like to get involved with. As most of the houses in this area either have their own private boat docks or have boats docked at one of the marinas in the area.
