News: Marina Mission Accomplished

Wet slip storage is open again at this Fort Myers staple.

Boaters, rejoice — Salty Sam’s Marina on Fort Myers Beach has officially reopened its newly rebuilt docks and is now welcoming wet slip storage customers. After a complete overhaul, the state-of-the-art floating docks are ready for transient and wet slip boaters looking for a full-service marina in the southwest Florida area.

Located in the heart of Matanzas Harbor, Salty Sam’s Marina sits on a deep-water, hurricane-protected bay just minutes from the Gulf of Mexico. Whether you're a weekend boater or a seasonal liveaboard, the location offers convenient access to some of the best boating in Southwest Florida.

The newly upgraded floating docks feature full power and water hookups with both 30amp and 50amp service, along with in-slip pumpout service to make your stay clean and comfortable. On-site fuel docks make topping off easy, and the friendly dock staff is always ready to help with lines, fueling, and anything else you need.

Salty Sam’s is more than just a marina — it’s a destination. With two waterfront restaurants just steps from the docks, your next great meal is never far away. Grab fresh seafood and a tropical cocktail at Parrot Key Caribbean Grill, or unwind with tacos and tiki vibes at the Marina Cantina Tin Tiki. Both spots offer music, fun atmospheres, and incredible views of the harbor.

Need service? The marina's Service Department is ready to assist with everything from routine maintenance to major repairs. And the huge Ship Store has everything you need to stock up before a cruise—from drinks, ice and snacks, to coastal gifts and apparel.

Whether you're cruising the Gulf, fishing the backwaters, or just soaking up the Florida sun dockside, Salty Sam’s Marina offers the perfect home port. With brand-new docks, premium amenities, and a fun, welcoming atmosphere, there’s never been a better time to tie up at this beautiful marina.
