The alleged interaction with on-site staff in no way represents the high standards of behavior we demand from our employees; additionally, due to staffing changes, Blue Dolphin has new, fresh on-site staff. Please speak with our friendly and professional staff! They will be happy to answer your questions. The marina has maintained a premium level of service for over 60 years. Our facilities were carefully designed by structural engineers and hurricane-tested, and are regularly cleaned and repaired, if needed, to ensure our customers' safety and satisfaction. Our quality and affordable slips range in price from $250-$1500 per month, and in size from 33- 75 feet. We offer covered piers and patios for your best possible experience. We are always working to improve the Blue Dolphin experience. Blue Dolphin has just finished a beautiful all-new renovation of its bathhouse in the marina, and within 90 days, our parking lot will be redone and will be painted with new striping.

Updating the review I posted last year…read more Let's see - we had a bottom job done. Looked great. Lousy job. They didn't prime the bottom before they painted - so not only did the paint come off in a bunch of places (painted 11 months ago), but it was EXPENSIVE paint and was supposed to last. The worst part is that the shipyard that we took it to this month said that because the priming wasn't done, we started getting bubbles in our fiberglass bottom. Not good. Also, one of the reasons we wanted to have it hauled out at the time was that they said they could maintain our stabilizers. When it came time, they said they didn't have the special tool they needed to do the job. STILL fuming. My advice to you is to stay away.
