Navy Pier Marina Named a 2025 Dockwa & Marinas.com Elite Fleet Award Winner
December 30, 2025
We find this award to be especially meaningful because itβs driven by boater feedback and real experiences. Earning a place in the Marinas.com Elite Fleet reflects the dedication of our marina team, the quality of our facilities, and our commitment to creating a welcoming, safe, and memorable destination on the water. From our prime location on Lake Michigan to the energy and excitement of Navy Pier just steps away, we strive to offer an experience thatβs truly one of a kind.
Being recognized among the Elite Fleet places Navy Pier Marina in a select group of marinas trusted by the boating community for excellence, reliability, and service. We are incredibly grateful to our loyal guests, seasonal slip holders, and visiting boaters who continue to choose Navy Pier Marina and share their positive experiences.
Thank you also toβ―Dockwa and Marinas.comβ―for this honor, as well as everyone who makes our marina what it is. Weβ―look forward to another unforgettable season on the water and canβt wait to welcome you back to the docks at Navy Pier Marina.
