Good Experience at South Seas Island Resort Marina (Statute Mile 13.5)
Back during the terrible hurricane season of 2005, South Seas Resort suffered extensive damage, and, if memory serves, which sometimes it does not, it took over a year for the necessary work to e accomplished before a reopening of this facility. It’s good to hear Captain Bill’s report below that things are once again working well here.
We recently spent a few days at South Seas Resort Marina in our Catalina 34, Mother Ocean. A few years ago we had a `choppy’ experience there because of some abrupt staffing changes (probably as a result of the economy) and some problems with their entrance channel.
We are happy to report that this year our experience there was excellent. The channel is now well marked. They have staffed up the marina with a very competent group. Finally, the resort, which had a few bugs in it during the years after its post-hurrican reopening, is running at full strength and very smoothly.
While it does cost more to dock there, one should keep in mind that the full resort is available to marina guests. At present it is, in our view, one of the nicest places to tie off on the west coast of Florida.
Bill.
