I had a fantastic stay at the marina. The staff and security were very friendly and helpful. The facilities were very clean. We had no issues during our stay. We have always enjoyed this marina, and will come again.
Clearwater beach marina was a nice place to stay. There are many things to do in walking distance. The staff was always very friendly and helpful. The marina is older but should be going thru a major renovation next year. The only reason its not 5 stars is the parking situation. Its hit or miss finding a place to park after about 10 AM most days, especially on weekends. Hopefully the renovation includes a parking garage with additional places to park.
This was our first experience with our new to us boat and the staff was very pleasant and personable to work with. The docks were cleaned off every day and the restrooms were clean and tidy. Will definitely stay at this marina again! Thank you!!
Slip was well maintained, amenities were very clean, staff were friendly and helpful.
Very helpful staff and friendly neighbors. Great place to stop again and again.
Jacob did an outstanding job helping us get into the dock
Wonderful Memorial Day weekend in Clearwater. This is a fantastic location to dock with amenities all within a short walking distance. Friendly neighbors made this weekend a blast! See you again soon.
A very nice facility. Very helpful staff. Great location right across from the beach with restaurants close by.
Simple and easy. Will do this everytime.
Great location, close to everything.
Very helpful when we were docking !
Awesome staff. Will is incredably helpful. Clean RR with AC. good wifi.
Great marina and even Better Dockmaster. Everyone there was nice and willing to help. Made fueling and docking a breeze.
Great location, gas, services, nice people
Great location. very easy to dock our boat.
Easy spot, love the proximity to everything CwB has to offer.
We stayed here for 10 days and had a GREAT experience. They were very responsive in all of our requests. Communication and professionalism was top notch. We definitely will stay here again in the future. Thank you for making our experience a good one.
Staff was amazingly helpful and very courteous! I would highly recommend this marina
Will and the staff were AWESOME! While the Marina is in need of some updating and repairs, we will definitely be back because of the service
Loved the location. Close to the beach and great dinning. Very active marina but not too noisy Docks are a little older but we had no problems. Staff was excellent. Told me the will be upgrading to floating docks soon. We will be back!
Will navigation of the marina and customer service was top notch. I had to ask him if he was the manger because I was surprised at how professional he was.
I hate giving Clearwater Beach Marina a 5 star review because there might not be room for us in the future!! However, they totally deserve it! I can't say enough nice things about this Marina, it's location or it's staff! We had a unique situation in that my husband is recovering from shoulder surgery. We were at a Marina over an hour and a half away from where he had to have physical therapy. Clearwater Beach's dockmaster was able to fit us in and we are now only 8 minutes away from the doctor. It's location is convenient for shopping restaurants, the beach and medical needs. The staff is welcoming and very helpful. The water in the marina is lovely and the protection is terrific. Of course, we think it's a blast to watch all the tourist and fishing boats as well. They will be undergoing a retrofit in 2024 with new floating docks! We highly recommend this wonderful Marina!
Staff was great but we were never able access the showers and bathrooms with an activated VIZPin account - it never worked for any of us
We really enjoyed our stay at Clearwater Beach Marina. Friendly staff, clean and very well located to enjoy Clearwater Beach.
Everything was great except ac did not work in bathhouse
We came for a few days and stayed over a month! This marina had the most friendly staff of anywhere we have been! After 5000 miles, that is quite a statement. Fantastic location near an excellent beach, probably the nicest beach we encountered on our travels. There is an inexpensive trolley that will take you around the area for minimal cost. Only negative is the fixed docks (about a 2' tide) and limited parking, if you have a car. They have a planned upgrade that will change the docks to floating. Then it will be even better!
Our stay was fantastic! The staff and dock crew were very accommodating. We will be back next fall
So helpful and truly all hands were on deck! Great Team from fuel and pump out, to catching our lines for our weekend stay. Friendly, courteous, and lots of smiles 😊
We had an awesome experience. The Dock Masters were more than willing to help and offered valuable advice. They even checked our lines overnight as to keep the boat in place with the tides. I would highly recommend the Clearwater Beach Marina.
The staff is amazing even the security was 5 star by far my favorite spot
People there were very nice to deal with. We are not used to fixed docks, so that took some getting used to. Mostly a pleasant stay; the Calypso Queen boat made a lot of noise all day, kind of annoying. When we left, we got immediate help to get the lines aboard and that was appreciated. We did like the area!
It was perfect. The dock master was super helpful. Helped me tie up.gave me tips and things to do in the area. Can't wait to go back.
Helpful and friendly staff, (especially Will). Great location..
We stayed here 2 nights on our 41 sailboat. As soon as we pulled up to the doc they where there helping us tie up. The crew was very attentive, and helpful . Gave us the info on the marina with all the amenities. They help us tie up once we were at the slip. We would definitely stay here again! Everyone was very nice .
Staff was very good , friendly & helpful. Docks could use updating from wood.
Great Marina! Walking distance to restaurants and stores. Nice clean and secure restrooms. Ask for Will, he’s super knowledgeable about things to do and helpful with any need boaters may have. I highly recommend them!
Dockhands were outstanding helping us dock the boat in very adverse conditions. Helped us with hookups. Great attitudes.
Great marina. Great location. Even better staff. Incredibly friendly and helpful. Great dock hands helping at the fuel dock and tying up in the slip. Very friendly helping with local directions and things to do.
We love this marina and the location. We stopped here last year near the end of our Great Loop and, although the finish line was in sight, decided to stay for a month. We had several guests come and visit us since the location is ideal with the beach and terrific restaurants close at hand. The marina employees are all great from the minute they grab your lines until your departure. Very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay so much that we put a reminder in our calendar to sign up with Dockwa again this past August for the month of March. We are looking forward to having several guests come and stay with us this month as well. Great place!
This is an amazing marina. The location is close to everything. It is a highlight for us on our Great Loop. When we arrived the staff were very attentive to help us into our slip. Dockhand Will was particularly notable. He noticed that the pole at our slip was missing the hook. He had it repaired the next day. I highly recommend this marina.
The staff is friendly and helpful ... the marina is old but well kept!
This place has been amazing! We were running behind and Will stayed to make sure we got in, made sure we had all we needed...and even the next day was a great help making sure we knew where to have our parts sent. Everyone has been so helpful and it was such an easy marina for us to get into. Lots of restaurants within walking distance, showers, laundry facilities...and a fuel dock!
We had a great stay. A little rolly during the day and no showers, but the staff treated us very well and the location is really hard to beat. We’re gonna be back!
Old marina with old restrooms and showers but the marina people are first rate and make up the difference. Great location and a lot to do here. They are getting ready to rebuild.
Great location. Good help from the staff
We like this marina. The staff is friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are basic and functional. There is only 1 for each gender on the fuel dockside of marina.
Had 3 great nights , clean showers. fuel and pump out service friendly and very helpful.
Awesome marina. Great staff and everything you could want within walking distance. Will, our dock attendant was spot on getting our lines and directing us into our slip. We will definitely be back!!!
We enjoyed this marina and definitely will be back. Close to restaurants and the beach. Clean marina and friendly staff.
they have an app which gives you access to heads, showers, docks, etc. it is buggy and eventually after much frustration ended up going to office and having them \"fix\" it. good idea but needs to be improved. docks are ok. beach is a short walk away. stores and restaurants are also a short walk. dock staff was very helpful and friendly.
The people running the docks were just great, always helpful and cheerful. Its no frills but fits us just fine and it is very close to the beach and shops, etc. A great place to keep the boat for 10 weeks. Clearwater is a great area.
Very accommodating staff. Due to some medical issues, I kept having to change reservation dates. They told me don’t worry about the dockage, the would make it happen
We had 4” on either side of us between posts. Even though I told them our beam is 14’. There was no where else to move to. Our neighbour had the same issue and ended up hitting us coming in because of the extremely narrow slips we were given. Won’t ever go back.
This is 2 stars at best. They had no staff to help us get to add up at the dock, which can be a little tricky with winds and a lot about traffic many voters and especially the tour boat disregard, no way and your boat will do a lot of rocking so if you’re looking for a nice quiet spot, this would not be your choice.
Awesome as usual. This was our third time there and we already booked the 4th. See you in a couple weeks. BoatCamping
Great location. Laundry area is tight.
Great location & great staff. Convenient to restaurants and Clearwater Beach. You can ask for a code for parking for a discounted rate. I believe there's free laundry, but we didn't need to do laundry! Be prepared for boat traffic from touring cruises.
Excellent location! The beach is literally a 5 minute walk away. We loved having shops, restaurants, etc within walking distance. We were greeted and assisted into our slip by the nicest staff member, Will. He made sure we got in safely, showed us where the facilities were located, and checked on us throughout the week. Thank you, Will!!!!
Had a recent stay at the Clearwater Beach Marina for the Clearwater Holiday Boat Parade and it was a great stay. I was met at the fuel dock by Bill and Jim and Bill helped us dock and continued to check on things all around the marina during our stay. It was great seeing Bill and other continuosly roaming and keeping things in order with a positive attitude, and it was a wonderful experience and community. Great location and the right amenities!
THANK YOU WILL! Will was very polite, kind, and helpful. We appreciate your assistance. ~ Horizon Bound
The location of the Clearwater Beach Marina is what makes it so special - a ton of shops, restaurants, walking/biking paths, & beaches all near the marina. The Marina it self is in okay shape. There are not enough bathrooms and they aren't in the best shape. One thing that was interesting is that they have electronic locks for the bathrooms (and the dock gates after they close a night) that you can control with your phone (via an app) - pretty slick. They also have a couple of nice commercial washers & dryers that are also paid for via another phone app. Overall - a great place to spend a few days! Couldn't give it 5 stars based on the bathroom facilities.
Very friendly staff, even though we were only a 23 foot boat they gave us a great slip location. Felt safe leaving boat overnight. Will definitely be back!
A nice marina, close to the beach and Pier 60 and the Trolley stop is a plus. But the marina is very susceptible to wakes both from the traffic on the GIW and from the tour boats operating out of the harbor. During the day we would be rocking and rolling in the slip. There is also only one shower and one toilet for as many as 20 transient boats that were here during our stay. Too many boats for too little services.
Our stay at the marina was fantastic as usual. We have stayed here many times just because it is a short trip from our hailing port in Dunedin. On this trip the dockmaster was a huge help as I was having trouble backing into my slip due to the wind. He jumped into action, my wife threw him a line and he literally pulled us into our slip. Not an easy task given the wind and a 30,000 lb boat. Hats off to you sir. We always enjoy this marina and the great restaurants and bars nearby!!
Good marina for location, fuel, washrooms, but terrible setup for laundry! They require you to download an APP that pays for the machines and will let you know when your load is done. The minimum you must put on the app is $25, and this is the only marina so far in some 2500 miles I have cruised, that uses this system. So, you end up paying $25 for a wash & dry. Unless I find another marina on my journey that uses the same system. Not good, go back to using we quarters. There are more complaints about the system than positive comments.
Great location. However very heavy current\nThrough our outside line if docks\nDid some slight damage to our dingy\nNot much assistance from staff. Pretty slack\nNew docks and dockmaster and you would have a winner
The location of Clearwater Beach Marina is great, being near the beach and numerous restaurants. That's the positive. On the constructive side, the App they use for access to showers and the docks after hours doesn't work and we finally gave up after numerous attempts with the staff. As a result, we were unable to use the showers while we were there, and we had to \"jump around\" the gate to get back to our boat after dinner. The electric hook-ups were down-right dangerous with exposed wiring being a shock hazard. The 50 A power at Clearwater Beach is only 208V and drops lower as more boats run AC. We had to run our generator at the dock to keep the boat cool during the day because our AC kept throwing low voltage warnings and was tripping out with the shore power. They do mention that in the description on Dockwa, so we were not surprised about the power. The docks themselves are falling apart with no fenders to be found and thick growth of barnacles to scratch your gelcoat. We had a great time with our friends while we were there, but I don't think we will be back...
Very polite gentleman helped us dock when we arrived and then we’re very helpful as we were leaving and needed fuel
Friendly Staff, Cant beat the location ,a decent value and plenty of restaurants and beach with in steps of the marina… Docks are older and have a decent amount of Candy Coral/Oyster Build Up… Docks sit higher than most and have a crazy 6-8” step down between the Dock and the Finger docks, so be mindful especially after cocktails :) … I think the folks at the marina said they where going to be putting new docks in at some point in the near future\n\nIf you want to be steps from the beach this is a great place to go!
Enjoyable stay at the marina staff was great fuel docks were a breeze great view and super close to the main beach will be coming back in the near future 😀
Could not use app to unlock amenities.staff didn't give a crap..awful service.
The docks were very nice in such a great location right near the beach and restaurants. Plenty to do there, staff was extremely friendly and willing to lend a hand if needed when docking. Will definitely be booking another slip for a long weekend soon.
Easy to access, friendly staff, close enough to the Beach area, but away from the crowds.
Although they did bend the rules for me allowing me to stay 9 months, they were happy to see us become homeless at the end of July 2022 since we were unable to find another place for our boat/home. Also the docks are in ill repair, their employees were surly (with 1 or 2 exceptions) and the services supplied (electric, water and trash) were unreliable and unkempt.
Great for a city Marina, showers and bathrooms clean, issues with the key app system. Some waking by multiple your boats.
50amp 220v is very poor; under 200volts. Without our powerbooster we could not have ran our AC. Internet is very weak; cuts in and out every so often.
Great location on Clearwater Beach. Price was fair for what you get ($66). Bathrooms and shower are fair. Bathrooms do have AC. Docks are fixed not floating. We arrived after 5 and did not get assistance with docking however and we could have used it as a front was coming through. Staff was very friendly.
Great place to visit!!! Marina staff were helpful!!!
When we arrived on Friday it was quite breezy we had some issues trying to get into the slip. We did radio ahead to tell them we were coming in. not once did the doc master or anyone there come out of the office to help us tie up. I always tip them but there was no help to tip. Then we had to go in and ask for Wi-Fi password and codes for the gate and bathrooms and showers. On Saturday a boat was attempting to come in the slip next to us but was breezy so he radioed for help and they told him they were busy pumping gas and that he was on his own. We helped him tie off. No offer of any pump out before we left. Then a lady in another boat told us they did not help them either and that they were useless. We have been going there for years and when John was dock master this never happened. Next time we stay at coachman park marina at least they are helpful there. Don’t go to the municipal marina unless you have help getting into a slip because you are on your own there.
I stay here often and this stay was just as good as all of my others. Jared in the dock office is AWESOME!!!
The Harbormaster Mr. Rick was very helpful. The marina is clean. Lots of charter traffic but nothing too bad. It’s close to stores and the beach. I would definitely come stay here again!
Super nice guys. put us at the fuel dock we were a late arrival and leaving early the next day after topping off gas.
Great staff. Close to restaurants and night life. Bathrooms/showers kept clean. Fun watching ships go by our transient slip.
Everything was awesome and a great location walking distance for everything, My first time in Clearwater and I want to come back already. My only concern was when is a low tide have to be careful with the oysters in the piles to scratch the boat, I think that is a easy fix. Other than that I have a perfect time and vacations. Thanks marina staff for be helpful and you dedicated customer services.
Pretty basic marina but was good for a night stay
One of the most tired marinas we've seen, docks are very old and dirty. Staff was also tired, at best, or complacent. No help docking. No internet. After hours entry to dock required a proprietary app be downloaded, not good.
The marina was awesome. The parking was a joke. I tried for 5 days to get a parking pass. The parking attendants on site were rude and refused to let me get my pass in person. The online application was horrible and I was denied 3 times. Make this process easier and more friendly for your Marina guests.
Can’t beat the location but marina is getting pretty tired. Short fingers but they were able to get me on a T head which worked for us. Others were climbing over rails to get in their boat. And no Wifi AT ALL so in this age that knocks off at least one star. Despite all that it is still the place to be in Clearwater.
All employees, especially Kristen, were nice and helpful. We were able to meet a lot of other boaters and loopers. We give it three stars only for the boaters facilities. Although clean, there was only one large restroom/shower per gender. The Bait House restaurant (just next door) is a MUST!
The condition of the docks are poor and their App for bathroom access is Terrible! We stayed two nights and I couldn’t get my app to work, only womens bathrooms showed as available and there is no clear labeling of which each bathroom was. I ended up using the facilities on my boat! May as well have been at anchor!
Most everything went well as we've visited this marina in the past and are already planning another trip later this year. As we approached, I made several attempts to call but the phone number to the dock house apparently was redirecting to a fax line and I couldn't raise them on the radio. It seems a communication mishap resulted in them being unsure as to our request for port side dockage. We tied up at the fuel dock and finally got the proper slip and multiple apologies were offered by the dockhand then they directed us to the proper dock. We love this marina and all the activity and can't wait to go again.
Great being right on the beach front. The help did all they could to be courteous and nice. In some ways they are a little understaffed. Most marinas will have a person help you into your dock. It may have just been the time of day that we came in as they were busy at the fuel dock, but they only had one person working so he could not leave to help others get into there docks. The rest rooms and laundry facilities should be enlarged. Now with that said there are trade offs and staying that close to all the restaurants and the beach cannot be replaced. Thank you for allowing us to stay.
Great marina - location, location, location. Everything is close to the marina. There are at least four restaurants right on the property. The beach is a 5 minute walk - right across the street. The Jolly Trolly stops at the marina - $5 ride all day. The docks are older fixed - so not perfect but the location is fantastic.
Easy in. Great docks although fixed. We had a very enjoyable three day stay, except for high winds of which marina could not control.
Dockmaster Rick apologetically offered us a commercial slip when the boat in our expected slip had engine issues. He helped us tie off next to a large dinner ship and treated us well. Will return.
Loved the location, the shops and restaurants. The staff was great too. Only negative was the number of bird droppings on deck daily from proximity to the fishing boats.
This is a great spot to stay. Walking distance to everything. The shortfall is where the transient docks are can be “rocky” it quiets down at night, but the commercial traffic during the day do not understand the no wake signs.
great dock master. nice restaurants and facility
The marina is well located and easy to get in and out of. Nice fuel and pumpout equipment. The docks are older and narrow, but perfectly fine. My only concern was the lack of security. The dock was open at all times that I came through. It is on the same place as the public ferry, the charter fishing, the dinner cruises and other high traffic areas. I never got a sense that there was anything sketchy, it is just something to make note of.
Great location....wish they did a better job keeping up with the bathrooms...pleasant staff
Nice stay with a good crew. Power provided was weak, (I need a Single 50Amp) so we had to ration how we used the A/C, Boiler, appliances etc... Other than that, a great place to stay.
First dock had us backed up to the parking lot behind a massive party boat. Moved our boat the next day but we’re next to a large sailboat with hundreds of birds pooping all over our boat. Moved again and electric didn’t work…left 3 days early. Bathrooms are a mess!
Slip and location was good but the facility could be cleaned up
Great location for beach access and for the trolley. Docks are ok but laundry machines are ancient and hardly work, bathrooms are also old but they do try to keep them clean. 15 minute walk to a medium size Publix .
What a fun place to stay! Everyone at the marina was extremely friendly and helpful. We extended our stay here because there is so much to see and so much to do at Clearwater Beach.
No complaints here. Had a wonderful stay. Great location.
Marina was well kept and very secure. Helpful staff and great amenities close by. Location is in the heart of Clearwater Beach with lots of bars, restaurants, and retail shops. We enjoyed our stay and would dock our boat here again.
Great location, staff not as attentive or hospitable as most marinas. Self serve gas expensive and pump out no problem but no water for rinse after pump out
Great Place to Stay.
The marina staff was professional and responsive
Very helpful and pleasant. Slip was a bit snug for coming in at night but fellow boaters were great!
Worn out docks but they did the job. Commercial traffic makes for lots of rolling...some very unnecessary. Location is unbeatable. Short sighted of the city not to improve this property. No one offered to assist docking and even though we didn't need help I don't understand marinas that do t.
The office people are great always friendly and helpful. The fuel dock people go out of their way to help. The only issue I have is the constant waking from the commercial boats. They just won't slow down.
We recently purchased our 46 foot boat and found this marina extremely easy to dock in. There are wonderful restaurants within walking distance and all the amenities we were looking for. We highly recommend it to everyone.
Old Marina but extremely quite and protected. Short walk to multiple places to eat, drink and watch the games! We will definitely come back!
The municipal marina staff were very nice and helpful. We had a good slip too with great boating “neighbors”. The bathrooms were clean too. The only issue were the wakes created by larger passing cruise ships that rocked us way more than they should have.
Restaurant employees allowed to use marina shower and bath reserved for marina guest only. Wait times were terrible and no hot water. Still long line wait times for showers. Very dated and old. So So on the cleaning.
Very nice marina. Would have definitely been 5 stars but they run 120/208 electric instead of 240 so the air conditioning kept shutting down for low voltage. Would still highly recommend.
I didn't make it to the marina, my boat broke down i tried to cancel it but still got charged for the stay
Great place to stay. Close to everything and staff was pleasant.
Is really good with all the services and fantastic location
Nice clean showers. Will definitely be back.
Don’t expect any help docking as Dockmaster barely leaves his air conditioned office.
First, all the positives.....the location is fantastic, if you want to be in the middle of all the action. Many tourists on fishing charters and dolphin sight seeing boats, excellent nearby restaurants and of course, the beach. They did answer my call on channel 16 right away and gave me my slip number. I noticed several of the older wooden docks had been replaced since my last visit. It is reasonably priced and convenient to book on Dockwa. Now the negatives....it is challenging to dock there. They are close to the Gulf, so the wind is almost constant and sometimes strong. The docks are at a 90 degree angle to these winds, so you take the full force on your starboard side as you back in. Furthermore, the fixed wood docks have very short finger piers. You must tie a stern line to their single cleat then hold the boat in the slip until your first mate can get a bow line on a forward piling. Of course it would be nice to have some help but nobody from the marina was at our slip to assist. The transients must help each other. When we went into the office to check-in, the guy was cold and unfriendly. He did a very poor job explaining the basics to us and we took the information sheet to figure things out. The WiFi did not work in the evening but it was functioning in the morning. This is a busy, open public marina so I was concerned about security. I was told they lock the gate at 10pm and there is a security guard at night. We were in bed by then, so I don't know if that happens but my impression is that security is lax. We did not visit the showers or restrooms. The fuel docks are next to the transient slips and there was a line of boats waiting for gas and diesel. This is potentially a five star marina, if the employees learned customer service and the City would invest in upgrading the docks and security.
Great location and amenities
The marina is easy to access and is located within walking distance to restaurants, shopping and beach. It's an older marina and we had some power issues running our boat on 2-50 amp plugs but got through it. No one assisted us when docking and they were hard to contact upon arrival to get slip number. No real customer service but the location is great.
Nice people and a quiet getaway. I prefer floating docks but had no problem docking with well placed poles and dock walk ways. Very quiet in evening.
Friendly staff. No help with dock lines. Tricky App to use bathrooms and gate. Reasonable prices. Near great restaurants.
The slip where they put us was crappy. The slip was right next to the opening to the inside of the marina. A lot of big charter boats (head fishing boats, party dinner boats, etc.) coming and going all times of day and night. No outside poles to tie to so boat would just bang against the dock. We had fenders out but they were no match for the wake. We ask why they did not put us in another slip as many where open. Their response was we where too wide. We are 14'3". We are a Meridian 408. There were other Meridians 411 there which have the same beam as us. We travel to about 20 to 25 different marinas a year and we can tell the difference in service from government run marina's vs. private marina's. I first wanted to move because of he smell from the bird poop. Someone did come down and poorly washed off the poop. I asked to leave the hose and I latter did a better job of washing it off. The next day, I saw another boat come in and the first thing they did was to wash the poop off the dock also. We planned of staying for three days. We left after the second day. I did talk to others who have stayed there and they said slips between the bridge and dock masters office were best.
VIZPin inop main gate - Rick is fabulous and Tom was great!
The people are Awesome! I recommend staying at the Clearwater Beach Marina!
Nice Marina Great location
Excellent experience
Great location Dock could use a little upgrading but great place. Stay safe
We had a nice stay. We have stayed there several times and my biggest concern was that the docks were always covered in bird dropping and that all the vendors had keys to the boaters bath house. This has been corrected and were very happy. They have a new phone app that allows boaters only to enter showers and it was very clean. Also they cleaned the docks every morning which made it nicer to be there. Keep up the good work. We will be back!
Basic slip, 1 restroom per gender, cold showers, it's close to the beach and restaurants which is convenient but has lots of road noise all night. The public / free slips (#'s 1 - 7) are literally falling down, not sure how the county get's away with those being so dangerous.
We love this marina. It has everything we need, but more importantly, the staff are very friendly and helpful. It's surrounded by tourist traps, but the pier is a safe haven from all of that.
Great people. Location is fantastic . Lots to do there .
Friendly and supportive staff.
Slip assigned was another narrow. Would have been difficult in window conditions. All other great. Nice area to walk around with plenty of dining options.
We love the convenient location of this marina. But we are sad to see the deterioration of the docks and pilings. There were nails sticking out that made it hard to even apply a fender. Dock staff great but would love to see the City fix dock issues
The docks are dated and no water hoses on the spigot but the the staff and boaters are super friendly and very helpful
No help for attendants, dock covered in pelican poo. Wakes from passing tour boats, difficult app for accessing bathrooms.
The place is a dumpster and the City employees that work there are loads. Last time I stayed there was 7 years ago and it was bad. It didn't get better. No more for me.
This marina is getting a little frayed around the edges and could use some upgrading but we still like going there due to its proximity to lots of great restaurants and bars, not to mention boating opportunities.
We were less than impressed with our stay. The slip location was was right next to all the commercial boats so we got to smell diesel while trying to enjoy the deck of our boat. When we went into our boat the WiFi was so weak we couldn’t pick up a signal. We then went out to eat and upon returning the M*****F****** GATE WAS LOCKED!!! We also couldn’t use the bathroom or shower due to no key. We received no key to re-enter! The sign said to call security, we did. Guess what?? VOICEMAIL!!! 4 freekin times we called, NOBODY ANSWERED SO I HAD TO CLIMB THE F****** FENCE!!! The good news is that the electricity was juicey so our A/C was extra cold. ;-) Maybe next time we could get a different slip location and a key?
Great experience Plan on coming back
Great Marina, accessible to all major waterways in the Clearwater Beach area, I will definitely be back!
Great Place to doc attendant met us at our slip help us get tied down ... Close to all the action , we walk to our hotel and had dinner at Crabby Dockside where the food and service were great.......
John was very helpful in getting us checked in and setup! The entire staff was friendly and accommodating. The location could not have been better for us! Well within walking distance of our resort. Very clean and well kept.
We have been going to Clearwater marina for 20 years now John has always been more then accommodating very helpful and knowledgeable. The marina is kept very clean it's a pleasure getting gas there we enjoy docking our boat and staying for the weekend. The staff is so friendly we love chatting it up with them. We were just there for memorial day weekend can't wait to go back.
Marina is in a great location. The actual slip was located near fuel dock and bridge. We rocked all night. Dockmaster recommendd we request B Dock next time. We will definitely return.
Awesome place, Very easy access.The staff here were perfect in every way.
Great marina!! Been there many times!!
Great location walk to Clearwater beach but tons of slips and put us on outside wall which was quite rocky with boat traffic. No amenities really. Diesel $2.89 . Had to ask for gate and bathroom key didn’t provide and acted like we didn’t need ... lots of your boats in marina
We couldn’t ask for better weather! We’ve stayed here several times. The only difference this time was that we called the office twice when we arrived and no one answered or returned our calls as to which slip we were supposed to tie up to. So we decided to go into a slip to inquire and no one came to help us dock, except a friendly guy in a boat close by. The dock service used to be better.
Nice marina Close to inlet and town
Fuel dock hours posted were wrong. They didn't open until 9:30 which would have been nice to know as it stated 6:30.
Good marina but could not return keys due to office closed when left at 8am. Lost the usd20 deposit.
Great marina in a beautiful location!
Great location. Floating docks would be a great addition
Small city operation mostly dedicated to Charter business. Nice beach access though.
Great location. Fixed docks with posts. Much rolling and yawing during daylight hours from boat traffic. No dock hands for a difficult side tie up. Need multiple long dock lines for tides.
Clearwater Beach Marina was an awesome place to hang out and to see the local sites - I highly recommend this marina and can't wait for our next trip back!
We’ve stayed at Clearwater Beach Marina a bunch of times and we always enjoy it. The staff is always friendly and there’s a bunch of stuff to do close by.
Professional, courteous, helpful staff.
Easy access from the Gulf, and great location - close to the beach and restaurants.
Helpful dock hands. Clean showers Restaurant on site
Was Windy when docking no one helps with lines did not see any Dock Hands in the two days we were there
Great place to dock! Good people work here too.
Marina staff is great... floating docks would be nice. Yahoos showed up while I was out sailing and took my slip and played really bad classic rock until after midnight.
It was everything we needed.
We had to stay an extra day when our engine wouldn’t start. The marina was very accommodating, even though it was July 4th. All of the staff was very nice!
The dock people are very helpful. It is a fun area where you can do many things.
It was very difficult to get a transient slip while in route, dockmaster was insistent we use Dockwa to reserve a slip. Dockwa states it could take up to 24 hours for confirmation of a slip, calling the marina multiple times with no results with reserving a slip. Docks are old and marina only supplies 208 amps for power, barely 200 amps, most of the time the power fell below 200 amps, so we were unable to use all our A/C units ( weather in the 100's) without tripping power or A/C's shutting down due to low voltage. We had to turn off A/C's to use hot water heater, microware, etc. Real pain in the A_ _. Really no place to walk a dog if you have pets, there is a small grassy area, but quite a walk for a small dog and over a large busy asphalt parking lot that you could fry eggs on and hurt the dogs paws. We walked our dog late one night after hours and got locked out of the marina, the gates lock automatically and we were not given a key for the gate at check in, we had no cell phone on us at the time and sign said to call the security at a certain number..........luckily there was a worker that jumped the fence to access the gate from the other side to let us back to our boat. All in all, a very old marina, full of old unused boats, large party fishing boats, dinner cruise boats, sightseeing boats, tourist type attraction boats, jet skis, fishing charters, etc . It's not a place to go for a relaxing stay! The marina should be torn down and revamped with newer docks (floating) and power. The poor dock masters are busy with refueling fishing boats and jet skis all day. Our recommendation would be go somewhere else unless your wanting to do tourist type stuff or want to be around drunk fest (spring break) type of people.
The online reservation did not give a slip assignment. By the time it was confirmed and I called the marina they were closed for the day. Upon arrival the transient slips were too small for the boat, ended up tied up on a face dock. No access to marina facilities. Would have much preferred to speak to the Dockmaster to make the reservation than online.
Nice marina, staff was helpful. Socks a little old but we were able to get everything to work. Lot to do in the area.
Customer service is marginal. Docks old and could stand repair
Dock help was somewhat friendly and helpful but didn't offer to hookup power & water. Pumpout was out of service but not advertised as being so. nearest showers were clean but no A/C
I love stopping at this Marina on my cruises up and down the West Coast of Florida. A 4 star on this stay only because the Marina staff (Tom) seem to be getting ruder and ruder. The professionalism, respect, and common courtesies are non existent.
Close to restaurants and shops.
Great experience. Will definitely stay there again. Location, location, location.
Great location, great rates.
Perfect location! Have to watch the sunset at Jimmys Crows Nest, and eat dinner at The Bait House!!! Best weekend ever!
The staff at the marina accommodated us with no issues. The marina gets a lot of rolling wake when the tour and dinner boats come in and out but after nightfall things quiet down a lot.
The staff, especially John and Tom, is the best.
Fixed finger piers not in best of shape. Only single showers. No night security. Dock hands helpful. Great location.
Not great. Very busy, no staff support, old docks, in a zoo Clearwater beach area. "D-" bathrooms/showers. Would not stay again for the money.
Good stay. Only one dock hand so no body to grab our lines. Never gave us a key for gates, had to call security each night to get back to our boat. New Year's Eve, no security on site, had to wait even longer. Charging more but offering less.
2nd stay and will be back many times. Friendly and helpful dock crew, private showers, convenient laundry facilities,excellent location to ICW, Clearwater Pass, restaurants, stores, Beach.
Everyone was great. We had a great time and a great slip.
Great location. nice docks. The staff was helpful upon docking and all during our stay. No charge pump out is included as well.
Docks are old and rickety. Bird crap everywhere. Worst part is that they don’t have enough power at the pedestals to run all my a/c units. For the price I paid I expected more.
Great location near the beach. Bath and laundry facilities are clean. Clearwater Beach is very walkable with available trolley to all points on the island and points north to Tarpon Springs. Publix walkable, trolley or bike. Docks aged but the positives outweigh any negatives. Helpful staff available 7-6:30. Fuel dock w/ pump out. Looking forward t o our return.
Great marina and convenient to beach and town. Good WiFi.
We enjoyed our stay at the marina very much. The facilities were clean and the location was perfect. Personnel were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We would definitely stay again.
Great place with great food and beach
Always a great time. Good place to dock. Great food close by on the dock.
As a professional delivery captain, I have been staying at Clearwater Marina for 15 years. In that time, very little has been done to upgrade the facilities. It would be nice to see air conditioning in the showers closest to the office. Can you imagine what it is like to use those showers in the summer time? When I have asked about it before, I was told to use the showers down by the main building but I don't feel like parading past all those people with a minimum of clothing on for showering. I don't think it would cost that much, do you?
Staff were very helpful
Great location and great service!!! Highly recomend
Great Marina and good service. Location is good with many restaurants in walking distance. Clearwater trolley system works good for getting around up and down the beach area. Good place to enter the Gulf if you're going North or South.
