Our Location

to our little piece of paradise! We are located in Burnt Store Marina. Our docks and classroom are only a few hundred feet from the deep water of beautiful Charlotte Harbor, which is ranked as one of the top ten places to sail by Sail magazine. Charlotte Harbor is the second-largest estuary in Florida, encompassing 270 square miles, yet it is one of the state’s best-kept secrets. There are several wildlife refuges and state parks close at hand, as well as the famous beaches of Sanibel and Captiva islands. Small marinas and beautiful anchorages are sprinkled throughout the keys in our cruising area. Plus we are less than a day from the Florida Keys.

The Burnt Store resort complex has a range of lodgings, a restaurant, bar, deli, and all the amenities you would expect from a top resort. The pace is relaxed and the setting truly refreshing. Although our bay is only a short drive from Ft. Myers, Cape Coral, or Punta Gorda, you will feel like you have left urban Florida far behind.

Burnt Store Marina is located at 3192 Matecumbe Key Road, Punta Gorda, FL 33955, nine and a half miles south of Punta Gorda on Burnt Store Road road. The entrance security gate is well marked, and the public is welcome! After entering the community, go left at the first stop sign, left at the second stop sign and follow the signs to the harbour masters office. For those of you who are flying, Southwest Florida International Airport(RSW) is only 37 miles away, and has very good service from most major carriers.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for help with your travel arrangements. We look forward to sharing our beautiful sailing area with you!
