The Saint Paul Yacht Club(SPYC) is the best urban marina in the Twin Cities — and possibly the midwest. It’s located off Wabasha Street in downtown St Paul at Harriet Island Regional Park. This means it offers boaters the best of both worlds: direct access to the city and an abundance of green space. Downtown St Paul is a short walk across the Wabasha Street Bridge. Only a few steps further to the Central light railway station serving the Green Line into Minneapolis. Children’s Museum, Museum of Science, Excel Center, Fitzgerald, Farmer’s Market and many other attractions are nearby. Harriet Island is a great place to be docked in the summer. It hosts many public events, paddleboat tours, Theater performances and ongoing summer activities. The docks are wide and well maintained with dock-side pumping. SPYC also has a new clubhouse and an ongoing schedule of social events. Dock fees are reasonable and access to boats is protected by security gates to prevent unauthorized access. The Saint Paul Yacht Club is a great place to dock your boat for a weekend, all summer, or year-round.
