Having grown up here it brings back so many childhood memories. The early morning gathering with…read morefamily and friends for the Fourth of July. Trying to save a spot before the mad rush with people. Summers afternoon all day on the beach frolicking around enjoy the water. When you're young, you don't care what the water was like. The hours of bike rides along the path from the pier to the marina, shoreline village and back to Belmont shores. This place is one of those that just makes you smile reminding you of your childhood. I still come down whenever I'm in town to have a walk along the waterfront. Checking out the boats all lines up in the docks. The view of the Queen Mary docked permanently along the water. People watching and of course the sunsets. It's a place for all that and then some. It's a local hotspot for bike rides, exercise, and dates. Also a hotspot for the tourist enjoying Long Beach. A nostalgic experience each and every time. A nice place for just doing nothing.

Beautiful, busy marina. If it weren't for the trash floating around daily and homeless lurking…read morearound at night, this place would be ideal. Shoreline Village has so many restaurants to enjoy, nearby mall, Farris wheel, a wonderful aquarium, and so much more. Restrooms are clean, and trash bins could be emptied more often since this marina is run by the city. Maybe less homeless would pick through it. We won't be returning due to the garbage in the SEA, which can get caught in a boat prop; then who's responsible? We were very disappointed there isn't a service boat that cleans it up for boat residents and tourists, an embarrassment for the city of Long Beach, I'd say.

Thank you Van for your help. Very professional and easy to work with. I'm the one who made a…read moremistake, but Van still took care of me.

The facility itself is great. Docks are taken care of, bathrooms are clean for a boat launch. I…read morelike that I see the place patrolled by police every now and then. They could do a bit better job scrubbing the ramps themselves, lots of slim but very deep grooves so it's not much of a problem. The only reason this place gets a 3 instead of a 5 star review is for the price of admission, the boat wash down should be free like most other boat launch facilities. Why do patrons need to pay additional just to flush their motors and spray down their boats. Feels like a bit of a money grab.

They worked to squeeze me in, and while I waited hoping I wouldn't sink, they even offered to have someone monitor my boat. WTH??? Who offers service like this in 2026??? Once the boat was hauled out, I had some things that I wanted to consider be done--Tony told me it wasn't necessary. When I pressed them on it, he said if you've got money to spend, you can just hand me your money if you want, but I don't think you need to. I will always take my boat to these guys. They're honest, and they strive to make me as happy as I can be. They watch my back. Thank you team Marina Shipyard. You rock!

Caught the marina people(Greg's cronies) stealing fuel from my yacht…read more Harbormaster Greg Put a bogus lein on my yacht and said I didn't pay for 3 months, when i asked for the history of payments received Greg gave me a printout that had huge mathematical errors and the 3 months he said I didn't pay, I didn't even have this yacht during the time he said I didn't pay. Dock is very dangerous, nails are always sticking out and the docks are falling apart, completely unacceptable this is such a hazardous danger. Marina and the people running the marina are disgusting trash, they are rude and disrespectful. If you ask them to nail the dock back together so I don't fall in the water stepping onto the swim platform from the dock. Or when the electricity acts up and pops the breakers in the boat because the marinas breaker is melting due to whatever power issue the marina has they rudly answe with a "yep we'll look into that"and never does, 3 shore power cables later finally they replaced the breaker

I needed to change my dripless while the boat was going to be out for bottom paint. I was told that I had two options. 1. Paying something like $500 to come in on the weekend or have their mechanic do the work at $160/hr +-. Either way it was a lose/lose situation. I really miss being down in San Diego.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience purchasing a Californian 34 LRC through CA yacht co/Long…read moreBeach Yacht Center. As this was our first time purchasing a used boat, we were new to the process. Jay, our broker, was knowledgeable, honest, and went out of his way to ensure the deal went as smoothly as possible. He was always readily reachable and flexible with our scheduling, surveys, and haul outs. After the closing of the deal, there was a miscommunication (most likely our fault) about how long we would be able to keep the boat in its current slip. A week prior to our planned relocation, Jay informed us that the lease for the slip was up that day. We were panicked, with nowhere to keep the boat for at least a couple days. Without batting an eye, Jay went to the boat and moved it to their brokerage dock until we could sort out the relocation. Thank you, Jay, for going above and beyond and turning a stressful situation into a seamless one. 10/10 would do business with this company again.

While their self described passion is "...to deliver the best of the boating lifestyle", it appears…read moretheir main passion is to hoard dock carts that belong to the marina and the city of Long Beach. They hide them on the docks and keep them locked up when they are not even there. It is not clear to me what they need 2 - 3 dock carts for since these boats stay in a slip all the time, but if this is the way they treat their neighbors, I would not trust them to sell my yacht, and would not trust them to broker a purchase. The pic was taken on a busy Sunday morning in summer when they are closed, and dock carts are difficult to come by.

Facilities are decent, the staff is caring, and the rates are affordable. If you are looking for a posh place to keep your boat, or a better location, you'll go elsewhere and that is fine. But Yacht Haven is an honest, friendly, family run place that I can always count on to be there. Sure, there are nicer places. There are cheaper places. There are places in better locations. I just find Yacht Haven to be a good mix of enough details to keep me coming back.
