Located in Fernandina Beach, Egans Creek Marina Inc provides boat launch access to Egans Creek and the St. Marys River system. This facility serves as a convenient departure point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters exploring the tidal waterways of northeastern Florida and the gateway to Cumberland Island National Seashore just across the Georgia border. The area is known for scenic maritime forest paddling and access to undeveloped beaches and natural shorelines.
This is a private marina facility, so paddlers should verify current access policies, any associated fees, and operational hours before visiting. Given the tidal nature of Egans Creek and the St. Marys River system, water levels fluctuate significantly, so checking tide conditions before launch is recommended. The area offers good opportunities for both day trips and longer expeditions, with nearby camping available at Cumberland Island National Seashore (reservable permits required).
For current information on facility status, hours, and any temporary closures due to weather or maintenance, contact the marina directly or check with local Nassau County authorities.
