Palmer Landing Marina

Palmer Landing Marina

Palmer Landing Marina is located in the Shippan area of Stamford, approx 1 mile south of Downtown and within convenient distance to most of the attractions which Stamford has to offer, including restaurants, bars, shopping (retail and grocery). The marina is located in a private community with ample parking, refuse disposal and amenities.

Amenities include private bathrooms and shower area, refuse disposal, shared BBQ area, key-code entry gate, friendly gated community of residents and boaters.

The marina is located on the inland, protected side of a harbor storm gate and seawall complex which closes during storm/hurricane events, providing protection during storms. Bubblers are activated during the winter season at designated slips, protecting against ice buildup, allowing boats to be stored in-water throughout winter. Slips are wide and there is virtually no water current, allowing for easy docking. Each slip is equipped with a water connection and individually metered 30 Amp and 50 Amp power connections which operate year-round.
