Dataw Island

Marina

For those who are called by the water, Dataw Island keeps you close to the sea.

Just three miles from the Intracoastal Waterway, boating to the Atlantic Ocean from Dataw is an enjoyable and scenic 30 minute ride – although many fishermen are content to cast a line or to fly fish right here in the coastal waters of Dataw Island. Several community docks are available from which to drop a crab trap, launch a kayak or catch a sunset.

Dataw Marina is now owned by the island’s members (Dataw Island Owners Association). The facility offers wet slips, dry storage, fuel, air-conditioned showers and laundry, a marine surveyor, an on-call diver, and an open boatyard – “DIY” your project or bring in your favorite service provider!

Transient dockage is also available. We ask that boaters please fill out this request form or call ahead to confirm availability (843) 838-8410. 

Member Activities

Sailors delight (as do all boaters!) in the activities offered through the Dataw Island Yacht Club, a member-based social boating organization. Offering regattas, kayak tours, sailing adventures and the much-anticipated Commodore’s Ball, the Yacht Club is a local favorite. For more information on joining, please visit the DIYC website.
