Ballard Mill Marina
Ballard Mill Marina sits on a 16-acre working waterfront in Seattle's historic Ballard neighborhood, blending a recreational marina with a commercial wharf and industrial buildings that give it a genuinely gritty, authentic Pacific Northwest character. You'll find boat storage, maintenance, and moorage services here, set against the backdrop of Ballard's maritime heritage. It's a solid base if you want to be close to the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks and the craft breweries and seafood spots that Ballard is known for.
