Located in Pictou Harbour on the beautiful Northumberland Strait, The Hector Quay Visitors Marina has been a popular stopping place and seasonal port for over 20 years. Pictou's fog-free harbour with deep water barrier-free access, combined with the the warm, calm seas of the Northumberland Strait make it a perfect port to enjoy your boat and the offerings of our picturesque seaside town. Pubs, museums, shops, recreational activities and other services are all within steps of the dock.
​
Due to Hurricane damage, the marina IS operating at a limited capacity for the 2023 season.
​
- 
To accommodate transient boaters, we have three mooring balls for overnight stays, with dingy tie-up at the floating dock. 
 
- 
For boaters looking to to tie-up for a few hours during day-time hours, we have two spots on the floating dock available on a first come, first serve basis. There are no overnight tie-ups allowed on the floating dock. 
 
- 
A launch slip on the east-side of Market Wharf is still available at no charge. Parking for boat trailers is limited due to neighbouring construction projects. 
 
- 
For our seasonal boaters, we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future with expanded accommodations and services.
