Petoskey’s city marina is on the town’s Little Traverse Bay waterfront at East Lake Street. The visitors bureau lists 72 slips for transient boats, with broadside space for larger vessels and free short-term docking for boaters stopping to shop.
The fuel dock sells diesel and gasoline and handles pump-outs, which makes Petoskey a useful supply stop on the way between Charlevoix and Harbor Springs or north toward the Straits.
