Killbear Marina sits at 31 Pengally Bay Road in Nobel, right where the Parry Sound main shipping channel meets the North/South Small Craft Route — which makes it one of the handiest stopping points for boaters cruising the eastern shore of Georgian Bay. It is a full-service marina with 180 docks, including 40 transient slips with shore power and water, plus a 35-ton Travelift, indoor and outdoor winter storage, and fuel docks carrying gas, diesel and propane alongside pump-out services.
The service department handles everything from routine engine work to emergency outdrive replacements and on-water recovery, and the well-stocked marine store covers charts, hardware, oils, safety gear and mooring supplies, with ice, ice cream and Killbear apparel for good measure. Transient boaters get showers, laundry, Wi-Fi and a barbecue picnic area, and a water taxi and towing service run from the docks.
Food is part of the draw: the on-site restaurant, Memories, serves lunch on a patio with a view of the bay, and the ice cream bar does a brisk trade with kids and crews alike. The marina is Clean Marine certified, and reviewers consistently praise the staff for getting broken-down boaters back on the water fast. Just minutes from Killbear Provincial Park, it works as a one-stop base for Georgian Bay boating, whether you are docking for the season, stopping for fuel and a sandwich, or hauling out for winter.
