There are many marinas located in Warwick Cove in Warwick Rhode Island, but Harbor Lights Marina, in my opinion is one of the best.
Besides being located on a back street off Warwick Neck Avenue, Harbor Lights Marina has a clear view down Narragansett Bay. Sitting on the dock and watching the boats brings just as much enjoyment as having a boat in a slip.
Harbor Lights Marina, boasts double fingers. (for those who do not know what double fingers are, its a dock on both sides of your boat) Most of the marinas in Warwick do not have double fingers. Having a dock on either side makes it so much easier for the Captain to get the boat in the dock with a minimum of fuss. It also lets the First Mate take their time jumping off the boat to tie up the lines.
A Dock has a perfect view of not only the Oakland Beach fireworks, but a general parade of boats coming up the cove and then returning at the end of the day.
All the docks are clean, well lit and just a nice place to be. Tim and Leo are always around, either on the gas dock, or in the office, or out in the yard and both are very accessible for questions and help.
Hap, the mechanic and John, the Yard manager are also always accessible and always willing to help.
Below are a few photos of Harbor Light Marina, mostly taken from the water.

Karen,
"Sitting on the dock and watching the boats brings just as much enjoyment as having a boat in a slip."...Truer words were never spoken...!!! Thanks, Fran
Karen, I don't think that even people who live close to Warick know that it has a marina.
Hi Fran, Its true! And Harbor Light Marina has the best view!
George, they should, because on Warwick Cove, where Harbor Light Marina is, there are about 8-10 other marinas...all with single fingers:)
beautiful slide show Karen - can you believe how summer is flying by and baoting season will be over soon!
Sincerely,
Grace
Hi Grace!! Been awhile, hasn't it. This summer did not really start until a couple of weeks ago. At least around here. Guess you can tell where I have been by this post:) Hoping to keep the boat in until November. Hope you are doing the same!
Hi Karen: I love marinas, always have. Something about the water, wind and boats not to mention they almost always have the best views. I'm with you Karen, keep that boat out as long as you can! Lake Blue Ridge is just outside my door and sometimes in the dead of winter I will hear a boat making it's way across the lake early in the morning. It's one of the most relaxing sounds I know.
Hi Donna, I agree about the sounds of boats. Actually I can hear them from my home. I am very lucky to live near the water and then have a boat 2 minutes away from my home. We just got back from Block Island, one of my very favorite places. Very relaxing. I am a water lover, as you can probably tell. I cannot imagine not living near the water.
