Palm View Marina presents a rare waterfront redevelopment opportunity located at 6817 Bayshore Road in Palmetto, Florida, situated directly on the north shoreline of McMullen Creek at its confluence with the Manatee River watershed, offering immediate navigable access to Terra Ceia Bay, Tampa Bay, and the Gulf of America.
The property features 965± linear feet of direct waterfront with navigable access. Positioned along the historic Old Tamiami Trail (Bayshore Road) just east of U.S. Route 41 and minutes from, the site combines strong regional connectivity with a protected, nature-rich waterfront setting.
Currently improved with an operating marina and approximately 7,232± square feet of existing office, workshop, and residential structures — including 25 boat slips, covered boat lifts, and an established dock system — the property is zoned PD-W (Planned Development – Waterfront) and VIL (Village), providing exceptional flexibility for marina expansion, mixed-use redevelopment, residential, hospitality, or marine-support uses, subject to county approvals. Submerged lands are owned, further enhancing the development and income potential of this asset.
A notable development advantage could possibly exist along the Old Tamiami Trail road corridor, where extension of the existing road bed and use of dredge spoils present a compelling opportunity to create additional buildable upland — a value-add strategy that could meaningfully expand the developable footprint beyond what current upland acreage alone permits.
Waterfront parcels with existing marine-use infrastructure, owned submerged lands, flexible village zoning, and the potential to engineer additional buildable land are increasingly scarce along the Manatee River and Terra Ceia Bay corridor, making Palm View Marina a standout repositioning opportunity in one of Florida's most active Gulf Coast growth markets.
