Alligator River Marina (Statute Mile 84)
On 5/9/13, as part of a North Carolina Wish List,we posed the following question:
Statute Mile 84 ‘“ who has spent a night or two at Alligator River Marina, just north and west of the Alligator River Bridge? Please describe your experience and impressions at this marina. What sort of depths did you observe between the Waterway and the marina entrance? Did you dine ashore, and, if so, how was the food?
Responses follow:
In 15 years of cruising coastal NC we have probably spent more nights here [Alligator River Marina] than anywhere else ‘“ probably 25% were weather related delays Our stays with Miss Wanda have always been good but realize some visitors have not shared our opinion. Food in the convenience store-truck stop ‘“marina is well priced, fast and welcome break from the boat.

I saw no issues with depth entering this marina (at least 8 feet everywhere). The staff was very helpful with docking. There is a lot of very nice grass for the dog to run and a nice clubhouse and laundry facility as well. There are limited hours for service in the small restaurant attached to the gas station out front, but the food was very good. I particularly enjoyed the alligator bites appetizer (couldn’t resist). This is a perfect stop to wait out any weather before crossing Albemarle Sound going northbound.
