About

Shelter Island Marina in Point Loma berths vessels up to 200 feet with 480-volt dockside power and is the largest mega-yacht marina in San Diego Bay and the closest private marina to the Pacific Ocean entrance. The marina sits inside Best Western Plus Island Palms Hotel & Marina's grounds, putting two bayside pools, tennis courts, the fitness center, and hotel-guest room options across the Casa Del Mar, Casa Marina, and Island Palms buildings within walking distance of every slip. Each slip provides 480-volt power, potable water, cable TV, and Wi-Fi through the hotel network, with dock carts and controlled-access gates restricting vehicle and foot traffic to the three-dock basin. Dockside room service runs from the Blue Wave Bar & Grill on the waterfront, and the marina hosts YachtFest each September, the region's premier superyacht showcase with tall-ship demonstrations from the San Diego Maritime Museum. Mega-yacht tenants typically pair berth agreements with specialized hull-and-P&I coverage through brokers like Oversea Yacht Insurance, which handles documentation for the larger vessels filling the 100-to-200-foot slip range. Cruisers on West Coast passages use Shelter Island Marina as a layover for provisioning, diver-cleaning, and crew-changeover stops before heading south toward Mexican waters or north on deliveries to Seattle and Vancouver.
