Directions To Belle Haven Marina

To Avoid Getting Lost --- Please be certain that you do not mistakenly go to the Washington Sailing Marina which is north of Old Town Alexandria about 1 mile south of Reagan National Airport at Daingerfield Island Marina. Belle Haven Marina is 5 miles south of Reagan National Airport right off of the G.W. Parkway. It is also about 2 miles south of King St. in Old Town Alexandria. (GW Parkway is called North and South Washington Street as you drive through Old Town Alexandria).

Please note that we meet near the Belle Haven main office which looks like a trailer. We do not meet at the dock where the rental sailboats are. If you are running a few minutes late please call the sailing coordinator to see if we can wait for you. Or you may try calling the Belle Haven pay phone at:
