Yi Sun-sin Marina (Korean: 이순신마리나) is a marina in Ungcheon-dong, Yeosu, South Jeolla Province, South Korea. It is named for the famed Korean admiral Yi Sun-sin.[1]
The docks were primarily meant for leisure usage; for small boats and yachts. Construction began on the docks in June 2014, and they first began operating on March 21, 2016.[1] The marina was initially named Ungcheon Yacht Marina (웅천요트마리나), but it was renamed to its current name by August of that year.[1]

There are 102 onshore berths, 98 parking spaces, a crane, and a three-story building for members of the marina. The building hosts an auditorium, offices, and a clubhouse. There are 48 marine berths.[1]
The marina has hosted several sporting events over its history. It hosted a triathlon in October 2023.[2] It held its first annual Gamak Bay yacht competition on April 28, 2022.[1]
