When it comes to boating along the beautiful Gulf Coast, location, convenience, and protection are everything. That’s why I always recommend Romar Marina in Orange Beach, Alabama to boaters who want a safe, efficient, and centrally located place to store their vessel. If you’re looking for a premium high and dry marina, especially close to Cotton Bayou and Perdido Pass, Romar Marina offers one of the best solutions in town.
Romar Marina is tucked along the backwaters of Cotton Bayou, offering easy access to Perdido Pass, the Gulf of Mexico, and the scenic inland waterways like Terry Cove and Robinson Island. It’s located just off Perdido Beach Boulevard in the heart of Orange Beach, making it incredibly convenient whether you're heading out for a sunset cruise, offshore fishing trip, or a casual afternoon exploring the islands.
One of the biggest advantages of Romar Marina’s location is its proximity to:
The Gulf of Mexico (via Perdido Pass, just minutes away)
Terry Cove (great for anchoring and swimming)
Robinson and Bird Islands (popular boating destinations)
Restaurant and Marina Access nearby at places like Zeke’s Landing and Tacky Jacks

One of the standout features at Romar Marina is its high and dry storage facility. If you’re not familiar, high and dry means that your boat is stored on an elevated rack inside a large covered building—protected from salt air, sun damage, and storms.
Advantages of High and Dry Storage:
Protection from UV rays, humidity, and weather
Reduces maintenance costs over time
Easy launch services (call ahead and your boat will be in the water when you arrive)
Staff assistance for fueling, rinsing, and cleaning
Romar Marina caters to a wide variety of boats, typically ranging from:
Center Consoles (perfect for offshore fishing)
Dual Consoles (great for families and cruising)
Bay Boats (shallow-draft vessels for inshore and nearshore adventures)
Pontoon Boats (for relaxed cruising around the islands)
Boat Size Capacity:
Most boats stored at Romar Marina are between 20 feet and 35 feet in length.
Some high and dry facilities here can accommodate boats up to 40 feet, depending on the beam (width) and height.
It's a perfect fit for the style of boating that defines the Gulf Coast—whether you're headed offshore for tuna, easing into Cotton Bayou for a sunset ride, or island-hopping with friends and family.
High and dry storage with forklift service
Outdoor racks for larger or overflow vessels
Direct water access to Cotton Bayou and Perdido Pass
On-site fueling stations
Nearby restaurant options and shopping
Friendly marina staff to assist with launching and retrieval
If you’re serious about protecting your boat investment while keeping it ready for adventure at a moment’s notice, Romar Marina is an outstanding choice.
As someone who lives, works, and plays along the Alabama Gulf Coast, I know how important it is to pair the right property with the right boating access.
