The marina & the Waterways

The Point marina & promenade

The Point is built around its own basin on the Waterways. A waterfront promenade circles the marina for about a mile, linking the towers to the shops and restaurants of the Waterways Shoppes across the water. VIDA's six townhomes back right onto the marina, and some Courtyards townhomes on the Intracoastal have their own private docks.

Where to go by boat

Head south on the Intracoastal to Haulover Inlet for the open Atlantic. Run north toward Hallandale and Port Everglades, or south to Bal Harbour, Biscayne Bay and Miami. Bimini is roughly 44 nautical miles east when the weather cooperates.

Planning to buy a slip? Ask about association rules, insurance requirements, power service (some slips have 50-amp) and parking before you make an offer.
