Navy Pier Marina

Navy Pier Marina is Chicago's only all-transient marina, meaning you don't need a seasonal slip — just show up and dock on Lake Michigan right at the heart of the city. You're steps away from the iconic Navy Pier with its restaurants, shops, and entertainment, plus sweeping views of the downtown skyline. It's as close as you'll get to docking in the middle of a world-class city.
