Marina Quay West — Attraction in Toronto

This is a good marina with friendly helpful staff and a great location downtown. They have laundry $1.25 and shower facilities for boaters. They sell ice and icecream in the office. The docks aren't the newest but are resonable condition. The visitor dock (pier 5) was replanked recently and is the nicest.

The marina allows winter liveaboards but there is a restriction on the number of slips due to power requirements.

When you enter the marina from the water side. The first pier you pass is pier 1 and it gose all the way up to pier 1 beside the office.

There is no wifi in the marina but you can sometimes pick up the Billy Bishop airport wifi.

We stayed in this marina after having a truly terrifying experience on the lake in our sailboat. It was a freak accident, and storms can not be helped. All this to say we were met by a compassionate group of people who were dock owners/renters as well as lovely staff members who will forever be remembered by my whole family. Debbie, the office manager, was a particular bright spot during our stay. She had so many suggestions and went above and beyond in helping us. This marina has a washhouse and laundry facilities. They have a sister port next door with pump out and across the harbor is a full station. The docks are well protected from weather and well maintained. I highly recommend this as a place to stay long...

This is a really good marina. You can't beat the views of the city. It is much quieter than Maria 4 and not quite as expensive. Close underground parking is a plus. I stayed transient here for a number of years and was really happy to return each year. You are only a short motor away from the islands where you can anchor all day with excellent beaches. If you can, get a slip that not on the wall as anyone can get on your boat.

The only negative is that they are close to the cruise departure areas - basically floating night clubs - and you get the noise (bass) on weekends as well as the ship's whistle on departure. This is, however, one of the best marinas I've ever stayed...
