Washington Sailing Marina

Great place to slip a sailboat if you have one. Otherwise, you can rent one, take lessons, picnic, or just enjoy the view of the monuments or the planes land at Reagan Airport. The restaurant is closed. This place is jammed early for Ju4 fireworks.

The Marian truly stands out as a hidden gem, boasting a breathtaking view of the majestic Potomac River and an atmosphere that exudes tranquility. Its serene ambiance instantly puts you at ease. What sets this place apart is the unique opportunity it provides to witness the graceful landing and taking off of planes from the nearby DCA airport, adding a touch of excitement to the experience.

Near Reagan Airport. So you get to see planes arrive & depart. Also visible is a view of D.C., Capitol building and Washington Monument. Nice place to get a shot of nature and relax. I arrived by bicycle. But, parking is free for non- boaters. Boat shop & bathrooms are open.

I have been a member of Washington Sailing Marina now for almost two years and it is a great spot to store your boat/kayak. The people are very friendly and personable and happy to help. It’s a relaxed atmosphere and in a great location in the DC area. The kayak storage prices are reasonable.

A beautiful marina and lots of beautiful boats and yachts right next to the Indigo landing restaurant. We caught a big catfish here. Haven’t been to the restaurant since the pandemic. Their food was pretty good when I visited. Need to visit again.

Boat rentals, lessons, and tours are available here. It's also a great location for plane spotting from DCA. Not much motorboating going on here, mostly just sailboats and kayaking. Check out their website for lessons and rentals.

Great place to spend an afternoon by the water. Food and drinks available or bring your own for a picnic.

Nice and quite place for outdoor picnic and family get together. Along with Sailing Marina and boat rentals.
