Description
Marinas provide essential on-water and off-water boat storage and associated infrastructure and amenities as well as public access to waterways across the land/water interface. They create employment, economic activity and support tourism to the communities surrounding their location and contribute to the aesthetic and social fabric of their communities. They are most often developed and operated with private investment and require professional management of the complex interface between public access, operational health and safety, environmental control, industrial activities, tourism and community activities.
