City of St. Petersburg Municipal Marina

The new Pier is a wonderful experience, and no better place to stay then City of St. Petersburg Marina. The staff are very professional, especially Don who managed our visit. The fellow boaters were very friendly. You are within a block of the Loop Trolley and downtown activity. Fun times, and looking forward to staying again soon.

It would have been five stars, however, no fault of the marina staff, but we lost power for an entire night due to utility work that was being done. Other than that, the facility was clean and staff was fantastic both upon arrival and departure. Fuel prices were also very reasonable. All in all a good experience and we will return to this marina.

The city does a great job and the info they share at check in is helpful for planning some fun days. Facilities are not fancy but clean and welcoming.

Very adequate and convenient to St Pete activities but this great facility is ready for an update especially with the new pier going in next door which is going to make the marina look shabby by comparison. Wi-fi system is essentially useless. Still love this marina because of its ideal location and excellent staff but I do wish the wi-fi was adequate. Frank is a prince and always cordial, helpful and professional. Love coming here and will be back soon. LT We visit St Pete Municipal Marina very regularly and are never disappointed. Its proximity to all that St Petersburg has to offer, which is extraordinary, easily compensates for the shortcomings associated with the age of the facility. Plus, they usually have the best fuel prices in the area. We go to St Pete often and always stay at the municipal marina. It is convenient to everything in the downtown area and the staff is outstanding...always courteous and helpful. If you like museums don't miss the James Museum.

Excellent location and great staff. We visited for the first time over Labor Day weekend in 2024 and couldn't have had a better time. The facility is showing some age, but it is well-maintained. Thank you to Don and Kathy for an enjoyable stay. We will be back.

Second stay just like the first - great staff, Thank You Don, and great location!!! First stay - The Dock hand Kathy was fabulous - great communication prior to our arrival- the SP market was in full swing Saturday and is within easy walking or biking distance as is Doc Fords which has great food and had an upbeat vibe when we were there -

Emergency stay due to lightening strike. Staff was super accommodating and volunteered local knowledge. Would certainly recommend and stay here again

We had a great 2-night stay. The fuel dock is so easy to get to, and the dock master allowed us to check in a bit early since the transient dock was not crowded. The showers were excellent. Downtown St. Pete has great restaurants and bars.

We stayed at the transient dock for 3 nights. The power was perfect for the first two days, but on our 3rd it was variable. The showers were clean, but showing significant age and some electrical components (fan) was hanging (inoperable) from the ceiling. The location is great (access to downtown St. Pete) and its well protected from the bay. Overall a good stay, but some investment in facilties here is warranted.

Power on dock not good. Docks need to be updated. No service on transit Docks

We had a great stay. It started with Don who tracked my progress and was waiting for me at the dock. He helped us get tied up and hooked up. Showed me where to walk my dog , take my trash and pointed out several local places for us to visit. Then I left my phone in the bathroom and the custodian took it to the office. The bathroom was spotless so I don’t know why he was cleaning it. The lady at the office not only answered my wife’s call of my phone but noticed that my phone was almost dead and put it on a charger. A great place….

We just spent a long weekend at the marina and they made everything so easy for us. We have stayed at this marina numerous times and have always enjoyed ourselves. The only big issue we have is that they do not have WiFi. I'm really hoping they work on this soon so we can use our televisions on board.

Don, the harbormaster, is an outstanding leader within a great organization. All the other employees I encountered were also friendly, helpful and happy wich was refreshing. In our particular and unexpected situation Don was able to react quickly and safely resolving our issues. I would highly recommend this marina for a layover or long term.

The dockmaster Don was excellent and placed us on a great spot on the transient dock. The bathrooms and showers were clean and cleaned daily. The only downside was that the refrigerator in the Captain Lounge was filthy. We have our own on the boat but not everyone does.

Thank you, great time. See you again soon.

Frank, the dock master was so friendly and helpful. We had a great time in St. Petersburg. Nice marina convenient to everything. Wonderful town. We will be back soon.

We enjoyed our stay as usual. Frank was great, helpful friendly etc. He is a great representative of the Marina.

We have stayed at St Pete Municipal Marina several times. Frank, the dock master does an incredible job. We get clear, timely communication about our arrival, he meets us at the assigned dock, helps us get tied up, always has the info packet and entry card ready. The facilities are clean and comfortable. Based on our experience at other marinas, Frank and his team go above and beyond.

Helpful staff that understands and accommodates boaters. Everyone was great and Joan and Frank helped us especially. Glad they're still there!

Well run marina. Frank is friendly and knowledgable. Will come again without hesitation. Julia B Cape Cod

As usual, great place to visit, easy docking, great location for down town St Pete, very busy and active area.

Dockage was excellent. Dockmaster Frank was especially helpful.

Great location, nice pricing and good facilities!!!

Marina was nice and calm and quiet. No wifi on the docks and the garbage had to be taken off premise across the street into a dumpster.

Very convenient location.

PERFECT: curtious, knowledged, clean

Friendly helpful Dockmaster and good facilities.

Frank was great. Helpful. Don too was very nice. Bud Orr Four Orrs

Clean and comfortable

Great help and information from Don on our arrival!!

Frank the dock master hit a home run.

Frank was great! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Whole process was seamless. Frank does an amazing job and is very helpful when arriving. Frank was Great as usual.

Wooden dock pillars are in serious need of some rubber strips on them to keep the wood from scratching the paint on my boat. But, the staff is very, very nice and accommodating. I would have given this marina a higher rating, but for a few things sorely lacking. There is no wifi at this marina despite what their website says. It's only available in their lounge. Also, no trash containers anywhere. You have to walk a couple hundred yards across parking lots to find a dumpster. If you have a dog, which a lot of boaters do, there is no where to deposit their water and very little places nearby to walk your dog. These few upgrades would make a huge difference at this Marina. Great location.. great staff !

Beautiful western views of downtown and the lights and sunset colors and eastern sunrise views. Frank is a great Dockmaster to work with. We will come back again and again.

The location is great, the service was great but the only issue is this is a fixed dock. I was hoping for floating but still our stay was excellent.

Clean Marina, the Harbormaster was great!

Great location. No Wifi! Docks are really old and worn down

The marina is old and tired with no dock Wi-Fi. The only reason for my 5 stars is the location and the Dockmaster Frank is great

The Harbor Master is fabulous. Great communications. He contacted me before we arrived to see our ETA and was waiting for us when we arrived. Fabulous location.

Frank was great two complaints no WIFI in marina and having to have to walk garbage out the gate and across the street

Perfect in every way!

Great location, easy long transient pier for side tie. Lots of live aboards all quite helpful and welcoming.

We forgot out electric cord and Frank was happy to loan us one!

Frank the dock master was very helpful.

Always a great time in St Pete at The Municipal Marina! Great location right in the city! Frank the dock master is the best!

Frank is the best. Always happy and already planning a return soon

Frank was a lot of help

Always great spot. Frank attends to the details very well 👍😊

Great weekend, Frank was awsome

+ great functional showers. hot water drains pitched correctly + walk off boat and you're in town + price - no wifi on boat - needs tlc

Docks in poor condition and disrepair. Dock house outdated and needs upgrades. Not consistent with the St. Pete image. Some items were unsafe. No trash bins on dock. Frank the Dockmaster was great and helpful.

Every thing was well done.

Great location. Friendly and helpful staff

Great stay! Frank is the man!

Marina is well located. Walk to galleries, museums, waterfront parks. Free trolley steps away. Dock master and staff are helpful and met us to manage docking. Facilities aren’t luxurious but are adequate. We’ve certainly paid more for a lot less.

Great location, good facilities, reasonable price, Frank (dockmaster) was very helpful.

Good communication with the Marina and great dockmaster, Frank.

To short. We love at Pete.

This is a fantastic harbor. The staff is amazing especially the dock master Frank.

Frank is a true professional and a pleasure to do business with — excellent Dockmaster.

This is our favorite marina. Frank and Joan couldn't be more helpful. In fact, the whole staff is very accommodating. The location is great, it is a very walkable area. Thanks for another great stay. Ken & Rosemary

You cannot beat this location! Right in the centre of downtown St. Pete's. Most things are within walking distance and there's so much to see and do! Great restaurants and shopping. The marina is large and Frank helped us tie up when we arrived and was very helpful with any questions we had. The laundry facility etc is tired and the wifi is non existent but otherwise great!

Had a great experience at St Petersburg municipal marina. The marina is very well maintained. We were in the south basin overlooking the airport and next to Demens Landing Park. It was wonderful except for the occasional waves coming from Tampa Bay. The breakwater doesn't prevent much. There is also a 3 foot tide and with fixed docks, it can make getting off the boat problematic. Frank the dock master is very knowledgeable and was there to help us dock during very windy conditions. He gave us great instructions on tying up the boat. We didn't have to readjust our lines the entire time we were here! Joan and Mia and the rest of the staff were always helpful. The marina has a locking gates entrance and the bathrooms were clean and always stocked. There are 3 showers and 4 stalls. It is within walking distance to the downtown with lots of restaurants and museums like the Dali. Will definitely return!

Great location, Frank the dockmaster was very helpful and provided plenty of useful information.

Frank is super helpful. Our stay was perfect!

All good except no wi fi! Should receive a partial refund. And trash had to be taken to the park.

Spent 2 nights on the Transient dock during Christmas. The staff was friendly and helpful. The liveaboards at the North Dock were outgoing and very friendly as well. Look forward to returning in the future.

My rating would be less than 1 if that were as an option! The dock master was absolutely horrible. We hailed on ch 16 just outside the marina basin in the appropriate manner 4 times. No response. None. We came into the marina and began our docking maneuvers on the T dock as previously arranged. The dock master arrived at the dock and began a very loud and ugly rant that I was at the correct dock but at the wrong spot on it…needed to be at further towards the opposite end of the dock. He went on and on that I should have called his cell phone from the outer basin and not the Municipal VHF radio. Others on the dock we’re now observing his rant and he just got louder and louder. When I asked the question about the Marina’s VHF radio for the second or third time he said that they in fact have one but don’t use?? What? He explained that no one on his staff have either the time or knowledge to use it. So they don’t. Dockwa should apparently remove “VHF 16” from the info page for this ridiculous marina. After reminding me how difficult it is to find good people these days this crazy man paced up and down the dock while we completed our tie up with little to no help from him. I would only ever stay in this marina again if I had an emergency. No radio and no staff and by the way about 25% of the total boat population in this marina is either abandoned and/severely derelict. Some real sketchy issues there.

We spent 3 days at the St. Pete Municipal Marina. It was a Fantastic stop, easy walk into the city, so many things to do. Frank was fantastic, we learned a lot from him and he was super helpful. I wish the trash receptacle was closer, had to walk into the parking lot across the street and put trash in some dumpsters there, very inconvenient.

Very friendly and courteous. Great location next to the new city Pier.

Central location and great people make this a very nice experience. Just wish the docks were a bit more modern.

Excellent stay, really enjoyed the stay

Frank really makes the stay enjoyable…much appreciated!

Our 4th visit and not our last. Fantastic spot, great fellow boaters and vibe. Frank and Bob were great and made sure we had all our needs tended to. Be aware there is a significant tidal range but you are well protected from wake. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance and a Publix and liquor store a bike ride away.

Frank was amazing and helped us out tremendously. Great location and staff. Bathrooms and showers were not as clean as I was expecting. No wifi.

Easy in and out. Same for their fuel docks. Helpful with dock lines upon arrival. Central to everything fun in downtown St Petersburg.

Clean, friendly and awesome location!

Beautiful! Great location with million dollar views. Staff is so helpful. We definitely will be back.

Great location. Frank the Dockmaster was awesome.

We had a flawless stay at the marina. Maps were clear on exactly where to go. We will definitely be back.

Kathy and the fuel guy were great.

Frank the dock master is awesome. Communication is spot on! Great location and secure. Bathrooms clean👌. Docks are tired but I realize new ones are in the works. It will always be my first choice when in St Pete

Gorgeous Marina with so much to do. Tons of nightlife, music everywhere! Don at the fuel dock was wonderful! I will be staying again!!!!

Great location, close all things happening in St. Pete. Frank and security staff were very helpful. We will be back.

Frank the dockmaster is awesome and really took good care of our group of three boats.

Everything was great and I hope to be back soon. Frank was very helpful from the first time I pulled up to the dock until I departed. Thank you all.

It’s always a pleasure to visit St Petersburg and stay at the municipal marina. Don’t change a thing!

Facilities were dated, and could be cleaner. Signs for ice but not available. Overpriced.

Great location for visiting the Pier, Vinoy Park and plenty of restaurants. The Marina was easy to get to and the facilities were sufficient.

Good - but they need to have Wi-Fi on the dock!

Fantastic location, easy dockage, clean facilities with great showers. Highly recommend

Very clean and easy access to town ! Staff was very accommodating and helpful ! We loved our over night! Thank you so much we will be back !

Great experience using St Petersburg Municipal Marina for my 3 day fishing trip in Tampa Bay. It was a pleasure checking in and out, the parking pass is only $5 per day, and everyone was very accommodating. I will keep my boat here again

Great stay in St Pete’s. Bob (Dockmaster) was awesome and a pleasure to work with. Will def be back!

The dockmaster Cathy was awesome in every way we will definitely be back based on our experience with her.

It was a fantastic place for the weekend.

As usual, first class. Dockmaster very helpful. Love you guys and gals.

Great location and nice people to deal with!

Friendly and efficient staff. Very clean amenities. Walking distance to everything St Pete! We love it here 💝

Clean and accessible

👍

The location can't be beat. Staff was efficient and pleasant. We'll be back!

Awesome stay!!!! Docks are located in downtown St Pete. Easy to get in and out of, safe and close to great food and bars. We will be back!

Always love spending a couple of days here. Enjoy the street side restaurants which feels a bit European. Dock Master, Kathy is attentive, always available if needed, and helpful. Price reasonable and facilities ok. A must if you are in the area

Kathy and Don were very attentive to our needs and helpful with information. Will definitely plan to return for another stay. Best regards, Edwin & Linda, She’s a Keeper II

Best ever marine trip and stay at city Marina. The bathroom facilities were great and walking distance to downtown St Pete restaurants , bars & Music was outstanding. Marina people like Kathy snd Anthony were terrific helping me in an unfamiliar marina with all of the boats and excitement from visitors throughout USA and other countries was very stimulating conversations. Congratulations to City Mayor to keep City Municipal Marina still managed by city officials . The fireworks were incredible and traffic around the pier was very manageable and people were polite to me and my guests. We had a terrific time . There was a potluck dinner in the marina dock house where we all brought food , Barbeque and drinks . Best marina ever!

Kathy was so great - she was always there to help and was so friendly. Bathrooms were clean.

Kathy was great! Got us right in, vert accommodating!

Kathy on the transient booking was great and worked with us to get everything needed. However the fuel dock closed early without expectation forcing us to depart with less than optimal fuel on board. With communication on this we could have fueled the day before.

Kathy dock master was amazing. Very helpful. Facilities was clean.

We love our stays at the marina. This stay started out fine with booking and communication from the marina. Once we arrived the dock master Cathy was argumentative and insisted we are not allowed to use our stairway to get off the boat. We have stayed at the marina over 8 times and every time we have used our gangway. We asked why and she stated they were never allowed you will need to climb off they boat like everyone else that uses the T-dock. We called and her supervisor must have contacted her and made her aware it was ok to use the stairs. It is a beautiful marina stay and we recommend St. Pete marina. It is unfortunate that 1 employee can ruin a company reputation. We will continue to dock here for events and hope that company policies are more transparent and applied to all guests.

I have an ocean row boat that had to be towed in to St. Pete Marina due to high winds in the bay. Dockmaster Frank was able to find me a spot to tie off on even though I didn’t have a reservation. All the Folks at the Marina were awesome and very helpful. Thanks Frank and the staff at St. Pete Marina!!

Great place, close proximity to downtown and great area. The James museum is fantastic

Nice peaceful dock. Beautiful views of the city. Cathy took great care of us from our fuel stop to tying up on the transient dock. All paperwork was ready and waiting on us.

Frank was great making greeting us at the dock and making sure we were tied off to the dock with fenders in place ad shore power hooked up.

Great service and location. Frank was very helpful and responsive. Thanks St Pete Marina!!

A short stay, but a great stay. Everyone working at the marina was very helpful, especially, Frank. An easy walk to the all the good eats and drinks in the city. Great chats with liveaboard boat neighbors. Thanks for a great stay.

Great location . Dock master Frank was also great.

Dock master Frank is the best and the location is fantastic. Close to great restaurants, museums, parks and the new pier.

Incredible..30 years of trawling around and found this gem.. Marina is in perfect location. Fuel dock with great access.. walk to everything you could need. Marina and amenities super clean and well maintained. Frank the dock master is that the best service we had at any marina. Frank will help you with everything. Before you know it he’s got you tied up and helping you with anything you need. See Frank tell him we sent you..

Frank. The dockmaster was super. We were checking in late, and he did everything he could to accommodate us, and to direct us where to go.

Frank dock master was great getting us set up at the dock

Beautiful and not to busy.

The internet doesn't work. Drummers and loud music played all the time. The bathrooms are not exactly inviting.

Great location and facilities. Thank you to Frank for his helpful communication and assistance.

Great place to stay ,Helpful friendly staff

Franks the best. ****

Easy in Easy out Dock Master, Frank was most helpful and courteous

Great marina in great part of town. Lots to walk and the trolleys are fun. Frank on the dock is wonderful and so helpful.

Great place and very convenient to downtown St Pete. Frank is the best... he is there and on top of everything to help make your stay perfect. I will be back for sure!!!

One the transient dock. Frank was helpful and friendly. Would recommend!

Great location. Easy access. Frank was great.

All was well I'm just giving them a

The slip was easy access, and the bathrooms were both very clean. The communication was great and Frank was extremely helpful.

Great stop over! Right down town on the pier! Staff was amazing, prices were totally reasonable. Nothing was less than perfect!

Great place to spend the night right in the heart of St. Pete. Staff was amazing waiting by the transient dock to help with lines. Showers were great property was clean. Will definitely be back. \nHere and Now II

Excellent service. Frank was wonderful helping us tie up and gave us some local information about the area.

Great location by downtown and pier. Frank at the dock was excellent. Bathrooms a bit dated but clean and functional. Definitely coming back

Beautiful active waterfront district. Props to Frank who is so helpful.

Beautiful marina in a great location. We really appreciated Harbormaster Frank's hospitality and help in getting us in an out. Thank you, Frank!

Frank is a great dock hand who got everyone tied up during a busy weekend for the Tall Ships. Location is really great, walking distance to everything

Frank was a great Dockmaster. Nice quiet stay.

Great location right downtown. Everything was within walking distance. Frank at the dock was fantastic. Could not do enough to make sure our stay was fantastic.

What a great place to stay! Frank, the dock master was incredible helpful. Called us the morning of the stay to relay information about where to dock. Was waiting upon our arrival to help with the lines and get us situated. Plan to definitely stay there again as it is so convenient to everything going on in St Pete.

As previously stated by a number of visitors, facilities are a bit dated. However, the cleanliness, staff and location far outshines any lack of modernization. Frank, the Dockmaster in particular is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Stayed 3 nights and loved the vibe of the whole area. We will be back!!

We cannot say enough good things about Frank, the dockmaster. He was awesome. Laundry & bathrooms were older, but functional and cleaned every day. Secured entry & nighttime security. Access to downtown restaurants, shopping & the Pier could not be easier. St. Pete is very walkable & has dedicated bike lanes. Publix, CVS & a liquor store are a 10 minute walk from the marina. Great stop for the money!

All the staff, specially Frank, were patient, polite and very attentive. Our first overnight docking on our little boat was amazing. The views and easy walk to a varieties of entertainment options made it worth while. Very clean and safe enviorement. Will be back.

The Dock Master, Frank, is a great guy and super helpful! Marinas these days aren't all that personable, but Frank is a one man show and makes this one fantastic.

No problems Frank was very helpful .

We also highly recommend the marina. The location is FANTASTIC! We LOOOOVED St Petersburg for its festive atmosphere, restaurants, parks, museums, galleries, Publix, movie theatre, etc. A lot to do at walking distance. I give the marina a 4-star because of the poor (aka barely exisiting) wifi connection, good and clean amenities but in need of an upgrade. As for the Dock Master Frank, I would give a 5 star for his professionalism, availability and great help! We would love to go back.

We highly recommend this Marina!!! So close to everything from Museums to Restaurants and Supermarkets! Amenities are great but best of all is Frank… Dock Master Exstrodinary!! Even picked up my medicine and delivered it to our boat!

We enjoyed near perfect weather on our first visit to St Pete Marina. Frank met us at the dock and helped us get tied off. Frank knows the tides and his knowledge comes in to play when tying off your boat. We will be back soon for sure.

Frank was awesome Beautiful area

Frank was awesome. Great help to us while docking the boat!

Frank the Dockmaster was great! Wonderful facilities and close by everything. Definitely will be back!!

Frank and the staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. Great location. Helped us through some challenging times.

Great place to stay and Frank was tremendous help all the way around. Marina was clean.

Super great Marina! The staff is so helpful and friendly. The bathrooms are top notch. We were on a mooring ball and it is so convenient to dingy to the little walking island with the dog for their business. Dingy Dock for going ashore is a little distance from mooring field, but you get a great view of all the fancy yachts on your way in. There is a great restaurant on site that has happy hour every day 4-6 with great views.

Nice marina! Great location

Nice bathrooms and ez access to down town. Frank was great help!

The pier construction has been completed for more than a year and the mooring field is still not available. They keep saying the mooring field is under repair but I've not seen any action there. The transient dock is expensive for the age and condition of the facilities. Dock fixtures and showers are good as well as the assistance docking. The WiFi access requires you go to the sitting room at the pier-head to get reliable connection and laundry facility was being replaced when we visited. There are no trash or recycling receptacles on the pier so you need to carry your trash... across the street to the public parking. There are a number of top notch grocery stores, restaurants, museums and sports venues in walking distance. The parks and attractions on the St Pete pier will entertain the kiddies and lots of fishing available. It is a great spot but the transient services need to step up a notch to justify the price.

Nice area , lots to do. Frank the dock master was very helpful.

Facility and Staff are all excellent . The downtown area offers so much of everything

Great staff and well run marina.

Great overnight stop!

Friendly, professional staff. Nice docks, clean facilities, great location near all the fun. We’ll be back!

Frank took great care of us. Fantastic weekend, great location.

Great Marina. Great Location. Very well organised.

Frank was super nice upon arrival, the marina was close to everything and we will definitely be back.

Lots of fun things to do. Love downtown St Pete.

Great location and Frank was amazing - as always. Thank you for everything!

Clean well run. In a convenient location. The Dockmaster, Frank, was especially helpful. Highly recommended.

Clean facilities, but the best part was Frank the Dockmaster. He kept me informed and was a true gentleman.

Marina was great and you can’t beat the location

Always a great stay great location, love coming here. Kenny and Frank are always awesome

Kenny the dock master was very friendly, convenient, & made everything very easy!

We had an excellent stay. The staff was very professional and helpful during our entire stay. We plan to return soon.

Loved the covered slip. Staff was very helpful being my first time at the Marina.

Frank was a super nice guy and I wish I could have spent more time with him. Southeast winds came in and it rolled a lil bit overnight, but nothing to complain about.

Frank was amazing You have to get internet to the docks. This is 2022

My stay was great. Frank was our Dock Master and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He even took the time to teach us some knots and tying up. Will definitely come back for a longer stay.

Nice facility but getting a bit dated and in need of upgrades. Also a bit pricey. Frank was pleasant to me and helpful in docking, but was a bit gruff with my better half. Disappointed that internet service is not available dockside, rather you have to go into the lounge to use it. Also a couple started sanding the exterior of their boat within less than 25 feet from ours. Definitely a no-no in most marinas, but Frank said it was okay there so long as they stopped by 11:00 PM due to noise ordinance. He offered to move us, but once you get set up you really don't want to go through it again.

We love the facility, the location and the people. It is getting a bit pricey

Great staff and proximity to activities. Would be a 5 star if facilities including showers, lounge and bathrooms received an upgrade

A great location in the heart of a wonderful city. Friendly staff, good accommodations. Highly recommend. We will be back.

St. Petersburg is a wonderful city to visit and to be greeted by Frank at the Municipal Marina is a great way to begin your St. Petersburg adventure. As we made our way into Tampa Bay he checked with us by phone to get our ETA and give us our slip assignment. Our paperwork and gate keys were waiting for us upon our arrival and every accommodation has been made for us during our stay. Frank and the St. Petersburg Municipal Marina are a gem.

Always wonderful. The Wi-Fi needs to be much stronger. Dockwa was very easy to navigate.

I stayed on a mooring ball and I love it there. The main marina staff could use some help but Tony, Doug and Robert are the best.

Nice but docks need some work

Being the Captain of a large motor yacht you come to appreciate professionalism and knowledge when it comes to the dockmaster. I have to give major kudos to Frank who contacted me well ahead of time and was talking to me about shore power locations, whether or not we wanted to give him the loop or the bitter end of the mooring line, you name it, it covered it before we ever arrived. So it make bringing a 102’ into the marina a breeze, and the docking was seamless. Can’t say enough about the experience. We’l be back for sure. Thank you Frank. You are a great ambassador for the city.

Stayed at the north dock. Frank the dock master is top notch. Doesn’t get any better and he went out of his way more than once when I had to change plans because of weather. The bad: SHORT fixed docks. Need lengthened floating docks. 4x6 posts at the end of finger piers either damaged or missing. Mine was loose and someone almost fell. Pelican hook for dockline on outer piling missing. My dockline slid down into barnacles. Wi-Fi only in boaters lounge. When people are watching tv or yelling into their cell phones, it makes it difficult to work. C’mon St. Pete. You spend millions on a pier but too cheap to extend wifi throughout the marina. More good: good shower, good security, nice lighted outdoor meeting tent next to lounge but Wi-Fi won’t even reach out there.

We had a great weekend stay at the City docks in St. Pete in order to be close to McDill AFB for the Tampa Airfest. The Dockmaster, Frank, was so helpful even before we arrived. He gave explicit instructions and made sure we were comfortable upon approach. Throughout the weekend, he checked and monitored the docks giving a real sense of security. This marina is full of live aboard residents. The facilities are dated and everything could use a little make-over. The transient slip are on a fixed T head. It was easy to get in and out and the parade of recreational and commercial boats was very entertaining. You can't beat the location, central to downtown and all of the nightlife. The city pier and all of the associated parks are incredible and should not be missed. We will be back for a longer stay next year.

The transient dock is one long sea wall so the harbor master was very concerned with the extra length created by a dinghy on Davits. We were told this by Frank as we docked. In this case we can see how it is important to know capacity at the dock. Other than this the facilities were good, but the bathroom fans needed cleaning. The Marina is in a great location for access to the city.

Docks and very short finger piers are in poor condition and outdated. Fuel dock is good, but none of the staff seemed happy with their position or especially competent. Too bad because the location is wonderful and St Pete is delightful.

Busy marina, but well run. Great customer service. The marina manager was very helpful and friendly. The facilities are clean and they have great showers.

Docks are old concrete docks but all well fitted with wood fender boards. Frank, the Dock Master, is a gem. He went the extra mile before our arrival by sending us a confirmation message and his personal contact information. He is very experienced and knows how to help boaters, no matter what our skill sets are. I didn't think the service could get any better. The weather was turning bad near the end our stay and, we needed gasoline in order to make it to our home port with no stops. I contacted the fuel dock a half hour before opening time. The staff was already on site and ready to take us a few minutes early. Everyone was very pleasant. The Frank and the staff here are 5+ star excellent. Thanks to all for making our stay trouble free and enjoyable.

The dock we were at was in pretty bad shape. WL1. The city had lots going on

Staff was beyond helpful. Great location. Great facility. They go over and above every time.

Frank was very helpful with docking and we love the new key card instead of the regular key to get into the marina. Everything is always clean and so easy to get to what St. Pete has to offer.

Frank, the DockMaster, was great! He helped with our lines on arrival & departure & was helpful throughout our stay!!!

Love St Pete’s. They had a spot for me on the transient dock. I was able to get some serious work done and avoid the weather. Restaurants downtown are great. They even had a dump for my used oil.

Convenient booking and prompt email confirmation. Great service at the dock. Will stay with them again!

Another terrific stay at St Pete Muni Marina during the Grand Prix. Frank is the MVP of the place, hands down. Terrific service and really makes all the difference. Thank you again and looking forward to the next visit! Amazing night’s stay. Great, central area. Very nice people at the marina. But the #1 reason we’ll be transient here again, is Frank. Super accommodating. Friendly. Took time to explain and help with just about anything we could have needed to come in and have an enjoyable time. We’ll be back soon!

Great spot nice people

Great location. Protected harbor. Good help on dock. Very secure. Bathrooms a bit small and dated, but clean and totally serviceable. Happy to stay here any time.

This is a wonderful marina. Transient dock is in good condition & a short walk to the restrooms/showers. Laundry reasonably priced. Location is incredible - close to center of town, new pier, restaurants, music, museums, brew pubs… Entrance easy to navigate. Only (constructive) criticism - wish they had wifi at the marina.

We enjoyed our stay. Great location, with alot walking distance and good food. We will definately recommend to fellow boaters.

The marina itself could use some upgrades like wifi, but the location is awesome and the service great! Super friendly staff and great to deal with!

Frank was super helpful - above and beyond. Location is great! And the locals are super helpful and friendly! But the marina is showing its tatered edges. For example, our assigned slip that had no wooden board to hold us off the concrete finger dock - made for scary docking manuevers coming in! You could see the bolt holes where it used to be. But we'll be back! :)

Great location and helpful accomodating staff. We enjoyed our stay.

It was nice on the T dock. Lots of boats coming and going.

Frank the dock master was wonderful. Nice showers and laundry. Shopping, liquor store and grocery all within short walking distant. Plenty of places to eat.

St Petersburg is a great City to visit with lots of things to do and within walking distance of the marina. The new Pier is awesome.

Very friendly dock hands and beautiful view. Easy access to town and lots of restaurants. Showers weren't the greatest but the overall experience was great. Wouldn't hesitate for a second to stay here again.

Great stay. My only wish is that ice would be closer than a 40 minute round trip walk from the transient dock to the office on the other side of the basin.

Staff members Frank and Seth are treasures. The bathrooms and showers are not.

Frank is always so helpful.

Fantastic location for all the city has to offer. Huge Sat. Farmers market is a 5 minute walk away , the St.Pete pier is wonderful especially in the early morning or for a sunset drink at Teak. Many, many restaurants to choose from - really enjoyed Ceviche. Laundry and bathroom facilities are good at the Marina and very good security for the docks with a key card entry. Publix is a 10 minute walk away. Hard to leave!!

Dockmaster Frank works very hard to be helpful to incoming cruisers and is fair in how he manages boats. The location of the marina is excellent, but it is a diamond in the rough. Sadly our beloved City of St. Pete must not consider the investment in improving the docks and services a priority. No Wifi. 208 power.

The stay was great. Frank made the stay exceptional.

Bath/showers are well kept. Good security. Staff very helpful. Close (walking distance) to downtown St. Pete. The docks are adequate, fixed, with limited cleats. Marginal WiFi but Verizon was strong. A bargain given the great location.

The location is one of the best in any large city and St Pete is a great place. Few can compete. The marina is fine. It’s well protected and the slips are huge. It’s a city marina. It’s fine. I won’t stay anywhere else. Clarke

Great location, got lots of help to dock, enjoyed our stay very much...

Very nice place. The dock master, Frank, was exceptional. Great communication before and during our stay. Above and beyond in helping us to our slip, get tied-up and settled in. Best service we have had at a marina. Highly recommend.

Enjoyed. Perfect location

Great stay as always. Frank and the team are very accommodating and we love the location. Can't wait for our next trip back.

Place is a dump, felt like I was inn a floating trailer park. The dock guy Frank was less than useless. He is a crotchety old goat who's never owned a boat in his life, but swears he knows better than you.. Turned a perfectly executed docking into a complete cluster. No garbage cans on the dock, you have to walk literally 2 blocks to throw away trash. Outside marina was no better, food and soiled diapers on sidewalk, homeless people every where.. Like I said, the place is a dump. I will never come back. I can not emphasize how badly run this marina is..

Great location, excellent staff. Dockmaster Frank provided personal attention to assure we would have a slip after we had to postpone due to a mechanical issue. He even drove me back to a local boatyard with a part I needed. Now that’s customer service! High marks all around!

Frank the Dockmaster was very helpful. The marina had a well kept up bathroom and shower. Only thing that was a minor convenience was that there were no trash cans on the docks or in the building.

The location of the marina provides easy access to restaurants, shops, groceries, museums, farmer's market, bike paths, public art, parks, etc. The city has done an amazing job of making people and dog-friendly spaces that offer so much enjoyment. And best of all, is Frank D the marina manager who makes it all possible with his friendly and helpful attitude. He is definitely customer-oriented and always polite.

The marina is very convenient to the pier and walkable to downtown activities. Dock master, Frank was informative news very helpful. Tony at the fuel dock was also awesome! Because the marina is so convenient to everything going on, it was loud and full of light well into the night.

Perfect location with easy access to downtown St Pete, St Pete Pier and bike path to St Pete Beach.

Inadequate trailer parking and maneuverability caused a fender bender at boat ramp while there. Also, gave up on getting pumped out, no one available. Good location?

Perfect location, easy water approach to the docks.

Absolutely wonderful location. Very friendly staff.

The people at the marina especially Frank are absolutely fantastic and helpful. But we were here probably six or seven years ago and they were going to be revitalizing the marina with floating docks etc. Nothing has been done to this Marina in years. The people are great location is great but the city really needs to put some money into this marina

Excellent location, great staff, Frank was on top of things and wanted to make our stay as easy as possible.

Frank was extremely helpful and competent both while tying us up at the dock and when we departed. He answered all our questions about the Marina and the city of St. Petersburg. We had a delightful stay at the Municipal Marina.

Great location. Easy access. We'll organized check-in.

Love the marina and love the area. Marina is easy to get around in, the fuel dock is in an area with plenty of room to move around. Facilities are well kept and there’s even an Amazon locker available. Groceries are within a half mile with general and marine stores within a 15 minute drive. Restaurants within an easy walk, pick your mood. Decent protection from west and north winds, and the breaker wall helps with eastern and southern winds. A small airfield is on the south but limited to small craft. Do be aware of the surround area’s concerts and attractions, as getting in and out of the area can take a long long time and pedestrians everywhere. They do have marina resident parking lots, too.

Great marina and staff. Scott is amazing!

Great Location Helpful dock staff Mediocre Facilities - bathrooms, showers need upgrade

Excellent staff! Perfect slip location next to bathrooms and showers. Will definitely stay again!

I want to talk about how great this marina is, but the real secret is Frank. He's simply the best dockmaster I've met, and I've been sailing my whole life. Sailing in from Texas, we had an issue with our motor - that means NO admittance in St.Pete marinas. Frank went out of his way to help us: 1 find a place to legally stay overnight, 2 personally helped me find a single bolt causing the issue, 3 kept our reservation active so I could come in once the issue was fixed. He also - on his own and not related to his job- insisted we take his old 30 amp powercords when he learned we were long distance cruising with just 1 50ft cord and one small 12ft extension. This is a very good marina made great by its dockmaster. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay in St. Petersburg made even better by their kind and super helpful dockmaster, Frank. He helped with our lines, gave us advice on continuing our journey, and was just very supportive. You can tell he cares a lot about the marina and its guests. St. Petersburg's marina is a great place to stay, right by all the excitement, but peaceful and a walk or short Uber to the grocery store and a lot of fun stuff.

Marina is in an ideal location for easy access to most of what St Pete has to offer. The city is also very bike friendly with numerous off road bike trails.

Great dock master. Wish they had floating docks

great location and super helpful staff.

I would like to give Major Cudo's to Frank the Dockmaster, he was Awesome! I received a welcome call earlier in the day welcoming me and my crew to the Marina and what slip number I would be in. I checked in when I was getting close and he met us at the slip. We had a strong cross wind in the marina and he was very helpful getting us tied up and settled in for the evening. The next morning Frank helped us with Ice for our journey home. It was a great experience and Frank was a BIG part of it! Thank you Frank and Dockwa!!! Scott Grybek

This is by far the best marina I’ve been period.! This guys definitely raised the bar on costumer service , cleanliness and Edficiency! Location is prime plenty of restaurant and good places to go to, live music on weekends overall 5 stars.!

The marina, staff and location are all first class and special shout out to Frank who met us when we arrived at the dock -- and shepherded us through a lovely experience. As an "older" cruiser I was amazed at the city's quality of life, exuberance and culture now available within a short walk from the marina in St. Pete. Kudo's to staff and the St. Pete Municipal leadership for making an outstanding development effort.

Perfect location Professional and friendly people to help with your names

Nice clean facility, easy access. Dock master was there to meet us when we pulled in. Great location, walk to restaurants, grocery, drugstore, museums, etc.

Great Location and AMAZING Dock master. Frank was ready to help dock the boat and was very helpful.

Great location and everything worked.

The staff went out of their way to accommodate us. What a location!

Great marina and a block away from all of the restaurants. Looking forward to our next visit!

The facilities were clean and neat. The dockmaster kept me informed of my slip status, and was there to help me tie up as I arrived.

Frank, our dock assistance professional, was not only welcoming and knowledgeable of the area, was of great assistance in the docking process. Great customer service.

We were very impressed with the extraordinary service and help we received from Frank, the harbormaster. He went out his way to be there at the dock, helping with the lines and answering our questions in a very pleasant and humorous way. He made our visit fun! Thank you Frank.

Great location! And wonderful staff!

Frank is by far the best staff member we have ever encountered. He went out of his way to accommodate us and worked on a complicated reservation until he solved the issue. He is the best. If I was still running my business I would hire him on the spot!!

We had a great time...Frank and his team were very friendly and helpful during our entire 3 month stay. We'll be back

Frank and everyone I had contact with was incrediably helpful. It was a wonderful experience.

It was fun and the marina was very professional and personal

Great spot. Staff not knowledgeable about dockwa app. Very frustrating

Excellent stay overnight. The facilities are awesome, price is great, and it's nearby downtown St Pete with all it has to offer. The only drawback for us was that we were apparently too far from the wifi access point to get access. Recommend either installing a repeater, or at least let guests know of the limitation.

Great weekend, with lots of options you can walk to.

Wonderful couple nights of “boat camping” in the heart of downtown St Pete. Friendly service and very helpful.

Wonderful. We will return for a longer stay.

Dockage was fine, however we were not docked with the rest of our group as requested.

This is one of the best run marinas we have stayed.

Frank, the dockmaster, was great helping us docking to local info. The dock has great security by only one access to each pier with a key card. Great access to downtown. This was our first time at St. Pete by the water and will be back.

We had a great stay at St. Petersburg Municipal Marina. Our dockmaster was very helpful and everything we needed was easily accessible. We spent 2 wonderful days in beautiful downtown St. Pete and we can't wait to go back.

First time exploring St. Pete by the water. Frank, the dockmaster, was fabulous. So helpful from getting us docked to information we needed for the weekend. Fresco's restaurant is right next to the marina. Great food and service. Will definitely go back and stay at the municipal marina.

Great spot. Easy access to town. Friendly staff. No wifi tho

Loved it! Great location. Marina staff (Frank) was very helpful. So many restaurants, attractions, etc. in walking distance. We look forward to coming back soon!

Frank was very communicative, keeping us posted along our stay and helpful in docking. We hope the new leaseholders will have the same high level of customer service that the city has brought this marina to be a favorite stop in FL.

Excellent and friendly. Highly recommend!

Wonderful. Docks in great shape. Easy docking at transient dock. Frank the dock master was ver helpful and knowledgeable.
