A Good Visit to Port Royal Landing Marina (Statute Mile 540)
Port Royal Landing Marina guards the western banks of the AICW/Beaufort River, a short hop south of downtown Beaufort, SC. This fine facility is a much valued SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSOR!!!
First visit to Port Royal Landing Marina on Jun 5, 2011 was such a wonderful surprise. As we approach for our docking there are two staff members with smiling faces on the dock ready to assist. And they knew just what they were doing with the our lines. Once the boat was secured there were handshakes and introductions and a very warm welcome. All the facilities and the grounds were very clean and well maintained.
The marina has city water, portable pump-out system, Ship’s Store, 30/50 amp, cable TV, gas & diesel fuel, wireless Internet, floating docks, restrooms/showers/laundromat and a small restaurant/bar offering a 10% discount for overnight boaters. Other restaurants are nearby. Two courtesy vehicles are available. A Piggy-Wiggly grocery and a West Marine are about two miles away. (see comment below).
[The marina features a] comfortable boater’s lounge – well stocked book exchange and coffee and TV and a nice view of the water.
Current dockage rates are $1.60 ft plus electric for Loopers or BoatUS members.

The Piggly-Wiggley and West Marine are about 2 BLOCKS away, not 2 miles away.

I stay at the PRLM every time I’m down that way. It is a great Marina and it is about 3 miles past the Beaufort City Docks. Like the White’s have said they are always waiting for you on the docks to take your lines. They will even hook up your power and water. When was the last time a marina did that for you? One word of advice, please put a few $$ of
fuel in the tank of the courtesy vehicle, for the next guy.
