Pirates Cove Marina in Clay, New York, is ideally located north of Syracuse at the heart of New York State.
Situated on the Oneida River of the famous Erie Canal, we connect major waterway routes of the popular “Great Loop” and the “Little Loop” to Lake Champlain and Canada.
The Oswego River junction to Lake Ontario is just a mile and a half from Pirates Cove, and seasonally, the nearby locks stay open later for your convenience!
