Congratulations To the entire team for this wonderful honor.
A little history:
The Founding of the Marin Marina
It all began in 1985 when the municipality of Le Marin decided to turn to its natural environment—the sea—by creating a marina and a boat-repair center. Thus, in the early 1990s, under the leadership of Mayor Rodolph DESIRE and Frantz JEAN-JOSEPH, the Société Antillaise d’Exploitation de Port de Plaisance was founded, and it was awarded the public service contract to manage the marina facilities.
A marina that is constantly evolving
160 dock spaces and about 20 businesses, primarily focused on boating. The marina’s popularity quickly grew. As a result, between the mid-1990s and the early 2000s, five additional docks were added, including one capable of accommodating large pleasure craft.
In 2010, a new 4,500-square-meter commercial area opened, marking a turning point in the development of the port’s infrastructure.
Le Marin Marina: Your Must-Visit Stop
Today, the Marina du Marin is a flagship facility, attracting 55,000 recreational boaters annually and generating 460 direct jobs and 200 indirect jobs.
With 830 dock spaces and 100 mooring buoys, as well as 78 professionals—a team whose expertise is recognized throughout the Caribbean—the facility offers boaters service 7 days a week: boat repair and maintenance.
More Than Just a Marina
The Marina du Marin also offers a range of services available within the marina grounds, such as provisions, a laundry facility, a medical center, a harbor master’s office open daily, and a state-of-the-art gas station (flow-metered pumps, 12,000 liters per hour, open 7 days a week), as well as a blackwater and graywater collection service available directly at the docks.
The area also comes alive on a regular basis, offering musical and cultural events to visitors and locals alike throughout the year.
