James River Marina is a full service Marina providing dry storage and wet slips for over 250 boats. Sitting on 6.5 acres over looking the mouth of Deep Creek in Newport News VA, the Marina is the only indoor dry storage facility on the James River.

With the ability to haul boats up to 31ft and 13,000lb the Marina, situated half way between the Port of Hampton Roads and Williamsburg, has become a central location for mechanical repair and storage on the Peninsula. The Marina is affiliated with Mercury Marine, specializing in MerCruiser service, repair and parts. In addition to our franchise affiliation with MerCruiser we are capable of servicing most gasoline powered sterndrive and outboard engines.

Open year round, the Marina's location inside Deep Creek has proven to be a safe harbor. The Creek's North-East to South-West orientation as well as the surrounding steep terrain help minimize the effects of severe weather.
