Nassau Marina Under Construction

The Legendary Marina Resort in Blue Water Cay, Nassau, Bahamas, has made strides since its groundbreaking at the end of 2023. All Phase One floating docks were delivered by Marina Technologies (MTI), and installation is nearly complete. The $110 million project includes a marina and boat storage facility, a luxury resort and Nassau’s only Cat-5 rated dry storage stack.

Phase One will complete the dredging effort and half of the marina and the dry storage facility. Phase One docks include staging docks for the dry stack, a fuel dock and wet slips for vessels ranging from 55 feet to 130 feet. Later project phases will include docks for vessels up to 250 feet and completion of the dry stack, which is scheduled for late 2025. Phase One docks are MTI System D-260 for all mains and tees and System S-222 for all finger piers. For decking, Legendary chose MTI’s sand-colored composite planks with grooved non-skid, 4-inch soft PVC fenders and corner bumpers while 18-inch diameter steel pipe piles anchor the new system. The dry storage facility will house what Legendary has described as the largest marina forklift built to date, which the company has enlisted Forklift Exchange and Wiggins Lift Co. to help it build.
The project is expected to create 200 local jobs in Nassau. The marina will also include 20 condos, 22 oceanfront villas, a 130-room hotel, pools, waterfront restaurants, a members-only lounge, dockside fuel and a concierge service.
