How to Reserve Your Transient Slip
Booking your transient boat slip at Oregon Inlet is a straightforward process designed to get you docked with ease! The best way to secure your spot is to call our ship store directly. This personal touch allows us to confirm availability for your desired dates, discuss your vessel’s specific needs (like length, beam, and power requirements), and answer any immediate questions you might have. We recommend calling as far in advance as possible, especially during peak season (spring through fall) and weekends, as our slips are in high demand. Having your boat’s information and your planned arrival and departure dates handy will make the reservation process quick and efficient.
Once you’ve made your reservation over the phone, we’ll provide you with all the details for your arrival. We’ll confirm the daily or weekly rate, which includes access to essential amenities like fresh water and electrical hookups. Our friendly staff will be expecting you and can provide instructions for navigating the channel into our basin. We strive to make the process feel personal and welcoming from the very first call. Your adventure at our premier fishing marina begins with a simple, friendly conversation to ensure we have the perfect spot waiting for you.

Once you are safely docked in your transient slip, a world of convenience and excitement opens up! Your slip provides more than just a place to tie up; it’s your basecamp for adventure. You’ll have access to our full-service marina amenities, including our well-stocked ship store for bait, tackle, ice, and snacks. You can also refuel your vessel right here at our fuel docks, which offer both gas and diesel. We invite you to explore the marina, watch the charter fleet return with their impressive catches, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere. It’s an experience you won’t forget!
