TRANSIENT GUESTS

Conveniently located between Boston and New York and close to many of the Northeast’s top cruising destinations, NVB welcomes transient guests year-round. A short walk to charming Noank Village will feel like a time capsule to the early 1900’s. A short car ride or dinghy trip upriver will lead you to historic Downtown Mystic, which has enough attractions to keep you busy for days.

You’ll find us south of all Mystic River bridges for easy arrival and departure, with both deep-water moorings and floating slips available to visiting boaters. Our protected moorings can accommodate drafts up to 7 feet, and our transient slips each feature a wide alleyway. Seasonal slips and moorings are also available.
