The Richards Landing Municipal Marina is located at the end of the main street, just a few steps from the town centre. This is a full service marina, open seven days a week during boating season with gas, shower and laundry facilities. Seasonal and transient slips in the West Basin have 30 and 50 amp power and water at dockside, shoreline boardwalk and adjoining grassy area with picnic tables which makes a great place to set up the BBQ. The East Basin offers day use slips for quick access to downtown services or for diners attending one of the local restaurants.
Boaters will find fuel, clean washrooms and private showers for their exclusive use, pump-out, launch ramp and friendly staff waiting to assist you. Looking for a shady area? Cenotaph Park with its large shade trees and paved walkways is only a few steps away. There is also a bike maintenance station available for cycling enthusiasts.
Also for 2022, located on the marina site, is The Arts and Craft Beer at the Marina events every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday in July and August.
