Williams Island Marina
A protected, upscale stop tucked inside the private Williams Island community in Aventura—just off the ICW via the Ojus Canal. Ideal for a calm, resort-style overnight between Miami and Fort Lauderdale.
Williams Island Marina is a well-protected, basin-style marina located inside the private Williams Island community in Aventura, Florida. Set on the Ojus Canal just off Dumfounding Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW), it’s a convenient midpoint for boaters running between Miami and Fort Lauderdale.
Boaters choose this marina for its calmer waters (less wake than open-ICW docks) and access to resort-style amenities on the island—think spa/fitness, tennis, and on-site dining. Transient dockage is very limited, so planning ahead is key.
Use the navigation notes below to time your approach, confirm depths for your draft, and coordinate gate/parking logistics in this gated community before you arrive.

About This Marina
Williams Island Marina is a 106-slip facility tucked inside the luxury, private-club atmosphere of Williams Island. The marina sits just west of the ICW on the Ojus Canal, offering a notably calmer, more protected docking environment than many exposed ICW locations. It’s best suited for boaters looking for a quiet, upscale stay with strong shoreside amenities—while keeping in mind that transient availability is extremely limited (some guides report only a few guest slips, up to 60’).
