Located on Lake Michigan at the Naval Station Great Lakes in Chicago, Great Lakes Marina is open to the general public. The 96-acre, full-service marina has 30-foot piers with utilities, linear wall spaces, moorings and dry storage space. The marina has a boat yard for winter storage, as well as winterizing services including shrink-wrapping.
Great Lakes Marina’s amenities include plenty of parking, a launch ramp, a family beach area, a beach house with restrooms and showers, and a fuel dock and pump-out station. Plus, there are boat rentals (both sail and power) and courses, including U.S. Sailing (basic and intermediate) and U.S. Safe Powerboating Instruction.
The large harbor areas are excellent for paddling activities, such as kayaking, canoeing and stand-up paddleboarding.
