Fisher island marina in Miami
Discover Fisher Island Club Marina—one of Miami’s most private, luxury dockage options just off South Beach. Plan ahead for access, security, and arrivals at this members-focused marina.
Fisher Island Club Marina (often listed as “Fisher Island Club and Marina”) is a private, luxury marina on Fisher Island—an ultra-exclusive destination just off South Beach and accessible only by boat/yacht or the island’s private ferry. Known for high security and privacy, it’s also positioned perfectly for quick runs through Government Cut and out to the Atlantic.
The Club operates two marinas on property, including the deep-water Vanderbilt Marina built to accommodate large yachts. Because this is a private club setting, transient dockage can be limited and is typically arranged in advance—so it’s smart to call or email before you head in.
Below you’ll find the key arrival details (VHF channels, depths, amenities) plus nearby on-the-water destinations to help you plan a smooth Miami boating day.

About This Marina
Fisher Island Club Marina is a private, deep-water marina serving the Fisher Island Club community, with two on-property docking areas including the Vanderbilt Marina. The marina is widely referenced as having over 100 slips (commonly cited around 118 across directories), with superyacht-capable berths reported up to roughly 250 feet depending on availability and configuration.
Approach depths are commonly published around 15 feet, with approximate basin depths of about 8 feet in the Main Marina and about 12 feet in Vanderbilt Marina (always verify for your specific slip, tide, and conditions). The marina is described as well protected, with breakwaters designed to reduce surge and provide calmer berthing.
Fisher Island’s history adds to the destination’s character—Carl Fisher’s 1927 trade with William K. Vanderbilt II is part of the island’s legacy, and the Vanderbilt Marina has seen significant modernization, including a multi-million-dollar renovation completed in 2018 with upgraded floating docks and infrastructure. Another standout advantage: from here you can reach Government Cut quickly and be in the Gulf Stream within minutes under favorable conditions.
