Entrance Channel to Delegal Creek Marina, AICW Statute Mile 601
According to a spokesperson at the marina, the MLW in the entrance to Delegal Creek is 3 ft with a tidal range of 8-9 ft, so mid to high tide would be the best time to enter Delegal Creek. Once in the creek, there is plenty of depth, however the entrance channel described below is an issue if you draw more than 3 ft. The entrance channel begins northeast of waterway flashing daybeacon #86. just north of Hell Gate.
The Landings on Skidaway Island is pleased to announce that the first step in a multi-step process to improve access to Delegal Creek Marina has been completed. Larger, lighted navigation markers now clearly indicate the channel to Delegal Creek from the ICW, across Green Island Sound from Hell Gate, just northeast of ICW marker #86. We are the closest marina to the Atlantic Ocean via Ossabaw Sound. All transient and local mariners are welcome to purchase gas, diesel, and ice at competitive prices. Transient dockage is available for vessels up to 100 feet with power, water, wireless, showers, laundry, pump-out, and access to dining at a clubhouse. Hail Delegal Creek Marina on VHF 16 or call 912-598-0023 {or 912-224-3885} for further information regarding tidal conditions.
