Bahamas Marina Boat Slips for Sale | Paradise Island, Palm Cay & Bimini (2025)

Q: Typical dues/HOA costs?

Dues vary by marina and slip length. Expect monthly dues for operations/security/utilities reserves; request budgets and any special assessments during diligence.

Why Bahamas slips are smart in 2025

Locked-in homeport, predictable berthing costs, and high seasonal demand create a compelling case for owning a Bahamas marina slip. The best candidates combine hurricane-protected basins, floating docks, deep water, on-site customs, and 50/100/3-phase shore power for 60’–150’ yachts.

Tip: If you want a 60’ berth with strong rental demand, prioritize protected basins with on-site fuel/customs and resort amenities. Verify HOA/dues, title (deeded vs membership), liveaboard policy, and any assignment/rental rules before you sign.

FAQs — Bahamas boat slips

Are Bahamas marina slips deeded or membership-based?

Both models exist. Always verify whether your interest is fee-simple/deeded, condo-dock unit, or membership/license with usage rights, plus any rental/assignment limits.

Typical dues/HOA costs?

Vary by marina and slip length. Expect monthly dues for operations/security/utilities reserves; request budgets and any special assessments during diligence.

Best marinas for 60-foot yachts?

Hurricane Hole (Paradise Island), Palm Cay (New Providence), Bimini Bay, and Chub Cay frequently accommodate 60’ with floating docks and deep basins. Confirm beam and draft for your hull.

What about rental demand?

Prime, protected marinas with resort access and customs/fuel typically command higher occupancy and rates. Use rent-per-ft and conservative days to model yield.
