Higgins Yacht Yard

Located in the historic St. Michaels Harbor on the Chesapeake Bay, our boat yard and marina has been the original port and ship yard of the town since the 1600’s. Rooted in a rich history of boat building and boat work, we continue to provide a full-service boat yard and marina today, now updated with modern amenities. With over 50 slips, we offer transient, seasonal, and annual dockage, with electric & water hook up, shower & restroom facilities, WiFi, and ice available 24/7. We are conveniently located just footsteps away from town, being the closest marina in the harbor to the main town road, Talbot Street. Experience the quaint charm of historic St. Michaels by browsing our many shops, restaurants, galleries, museums, and more. There is something for everyone to experience and explore here in St. Michaels.Although the name has changed over the years, the property of Higgins Yacht Yard has continuously been a working boat yard since 1790. The marina aspect dates back even earlier, as this location was the original port of St. Michaels. A few footsteps away from the boatyard, going up Carpenter Street, is the corner of Carpenter and Locust Street, famously named “Hell’s Crossing”, after the rowdy sailors who roamed the streets and local bars after coming off the ships.
