The team there was super friendly and helpful! Great location.

by Larry T. on Nov 24, 2023
Originally we had made arrangements with the marina to stop here for just a couple hours. We just needed to leave our boat while we went to pick up an order that we had placed at West Marine nearby. The staff was so helpful while fueling up, pumping out, and topping off our water tanks that we decided just to stay in the marina for the evening and enjoy the area. Super nice facility with great people.

People are nice. Quiet area

Originally asked for a mooring, but they said one wasn't available. Ended up on a quiet dock on the far side of the marina. Marina staff was helpful in getting to our spot and secured. There are some tight spots when maneuvering in the marina and traffic from the fuel docks and boat ramp can make it lively so use caution. We need 6' of water and followed the channel the long way around to the marina entrance, some locals said we could go direct from the bridge, but didn't try it. We cooked on board so didn't sample any of the local spots. Definitely a great overnight spot convenient to the gulf or bay.

Great place to stay and regroup for the week. Helpful, friendly staff and excellent facilities. The only issue we had was one evening after hours, the key fob wouldn’t work and we had to climb the gate to get to our boat.

Nice place and well protected mooring field

by Gene F. - Verified user on Oct 27, 2023
The docks were fine. Very well protected. Power (50A) was good. Restrooms clean. Only two issues, one due to the marina, and the other probably not. * The WiFi code we were given did not work, and nobody seemed to know another. * We were next to a lighted parking lot (no problem with that). When the lights came on at about 7 PM all television reception was destroyed on every channel. It was still bad in the early morning but cleared up completely when the lights went off. This is not a marina problem, but they may be able to contact someone in the Gulfport city offices to get this fixed.

Great marina great service. Very reasonable prices for both dockage and fuel

Gulfport Marina is simply the easiest, most helpful marina I have ever dealt with. Prices are reasonable, the convenience is off the charts, and they provide all of the necessities to make a weekend, week, or entire month enjoyable so you focus on getting the most out of your boating experience.

The Wi-Fi was a bit glitchy, the staff did try to help as best they could. We’ll be back, other than that a very nice and friendly marina. Great location.

We have stayed at Gulfport Municipal Marina a number of times in the past and always been happy. Unfortunately we are unable to say the same this time. We felt like we were intruding on the staff's time. We could not get as simple a thing as a pump out completed. We are writing this visit off as an anomaly.

by Scott B. - Verified user on Jun 15, 2023
Mooring field has alot of power boat traffic cutting through. It would be nice if it was a no wake zone. Distance from mooring field to marina is a some what far. If you are rowing eat your wheaties. Gulfport waterfront is a blast. Overall a good location

by ROBERT F. - Verified user on May 31, 2023
Gulfport marina is nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful when I checked in. We wanted to walk to the waterfront area of Gulfport about 3/4 miles away, but the weather got bad so we stayed on the boat. There's nothing to do right at the marina.

by Timothy S. - Verified user on Mar 23, 2023
I have stayed at this marina several times now. I trailer in, and it’s a great little harbor to hang out in. They have everything you typically need and are super friendly. A real gem. The only ding I can give them is the boat ramp kinda sucks. Just too steep of an angle. Makes pulling larger boats really problematic. Center consoles and flats boats, not a big deal. 33ft formula is a challenge… so I’m at 4.9 stars ⭐️

by Michael F. - Verified user on Mar 22, 2023
Everything was great. Thank you!

by Steve D. on Mar 18, 2023
Marina itself is very nice. kept clean, organized and staff is friendly and professional. the City of Gulfport makes it difficult to stay there by limiting the time you can stay on a mooring ball and especially by limiting the amount of time you can dock at the City dock and spend money in their stores. I tried repeatedly to talk to city officials about the revenue they were losing by limiting my access. they did not seem to care enough to come up with a solution

Very nice marina. The main street was an easy walk from the marina. Great security and clean washroom/showers. This is a nice stop for fellow Great Loopers.

Great spot! Very well kept Marina. Managment and Staff are very accomadating. Excellent boat ramp ,and parking for truck and trailer is no problem for your entire stay. Floating transient dock is very convenient. Dog friendly! The trails at Clam Bayou are great for dog walking. Short walk to restaurants in Gulfport. Gas and pump out too. Great place to spend some time!

by Rick L. on Feb 16, 2023
Great protected spot Always out of the wind and tide which makes for east docking Great friendly and laid back marina staff Good pricing Morning cans available

Very helpful fuel dock staff -- had a stuck waste pump out cap and he lent me a solidly built steel wrench tool which did the trick\n\nHonor the range coming in -- especially beware of submerged pilings west side of the approach\n\nQuiet night on the transient dock, floating docks, medium walk to restaurants in town\n

Great Staff. It’s all about the people. Transient dock, fuel bathrooms ice sun dries and of course the town of Gulfport. Did I mention how great the staff is?

by Susan R. on Jan 15, 2023
Really enjoyed this very well protected marina. Had reservation for Jan 11 & 12, then high wind & wave forecast necessitated that we stay 2 more nights. Staff was very accommodating. Less than mile walk to quaint downtown Gulfport, and an easy 6 mi Uber ride to St Pete & Dali Museum. Thanks Gulfport Muni Marina!

Nice, clean and well equipped marina with helpful dockhands.\nA bit shallow in the entry channel so watch your depth and the tide tables.

We really enjoyed our stay at Gulfport Municipal Marina. The staff was very helpful. Thanks Tez! The WiFi was good, docks and all were very good. Bathrooms were very clean and private stalls! One of the best we've been to. It's located very close to a great town with many shops, restaurants, and pubs. One suggestion: washers had a flat rate, dryers were 25 cents/5 minutes (I think). Prefer a flat rate. LOL Would like to have extended our stay. Thank you GMM! ~ Horizon Bound

We stayed at Gulfport Marina for a week. The transient dock was great, clean showers and nice walking trails. We made it to the Tuesday market and walked to town almost every day. Highly recommend!

Easy to get in and docked at their transient dock. Marina employees helpful and courteous. Facilities clean and in in good repair. Conveniently, a boat ramp is located on the property and we were able to launch our dinghy there.

WiFi was lousy. Bathrooms were okay but could use an update. Pumpout worked well and was free.

by Steve S. on Dec 01, 2022
Stayed for a couple of nights to relax and really enjoyed the stay. It is a long walk around the parking lot to the marina office so Robert met us at our assigned slip with the security gate key. Without the key you cannot get in or out of dock gate. Fairly quiet even on the T end slip with power, water and pump-out on each dock. We are 45' and draw 40" and never saw less than 5' under us coming in, plenty deep at slip. Not much to do right at the marina but walk 5 blocks west through neighborhood and you are at the Gulfport Beach Recreation area with plenty of bars, restaurants and little shops. Three bars/restaurants had live music.

They accepted a 30 day reservation, then called and cancelled it. And they don't seem concerned about the now unmarked wreck 2 feet below the surface adjacent to the mooring field. Experienced significant damage and colliding with the wreck and having to be towed off sideways. Wreck had previously been marked but blew away during Ian.

Fantastic little marina. Clean, secure, inexpensive, combined with a courteous staff makes this a “must stay” marina. The city of Gulfport takes it’s marina seriously and it shows.

This is by far the best marina we’ve stayed, clean, organized and the costumer service was on point. Ramp quality was awesome, dock spotless overall best in town

by Steven T. on Aug 04, 2022
UPDATE: Last weekend had another stay at this marina. You just can't beat the crew there and the facilities are always clean and tight (do wish the AC would be maintained during the night as 90 degrees at 10pm outside last Saturday had the shower rooms like a sauna). Apart for the heat in the bathrooms, the place is one of the most convenient locations between St. Pete and Clearwater. I hate to divulge this gem but they are too good not to share. Had reserved a four day weekend down on Longboat Key but the wind forced a late minute change. Got a last minute spot at GMM and they treated me like I was a regular. Met me at the gas pumps and walked me into my spot, checked me in with utmost professionalism and courtesy. Pump out and check out in the morning were equally superb. The staff is top notch and the facilities are equally as nice. A very nice location and will be a destination used quite often in the future. Highly recommended.

by Stacy C. - Verified user on Jul 31, 2022
They said they had a pump out station but both didn’t work and didn’t have a hose next to it to wash down after. They did get us in right away when we called for a reservation and let us come in early. Wanted to charge $25 for doc keys to restroom and gate which they would of course refund when you return the key!!! so old school -why don’t they just get a keypad!? Small little shop with some novelty items, drinks and snacks. Meet a cool boater George who let us Borrow his car five minutes after we met him!! Gotta love how gracious boaters are!!

This is a great spot for an overnight. Overall the facilities are clean and freshly maintained with easy access. Transient dock is a little low for larger boats but fittings and utilities are well spaced and in good condition. The WiFi was under construction so very week when we were there. It will be a a big 5 star once that is up and running. Easy in and out if you are under 62 foot bridge Clarence otherwise plan a low tide passing. For some inexplicable reason the newly completed Pinellas Bayway Bridge was built with about 2 foot less clearance than the other bridges coming from Tampa bay. Gulfport beach walk is less than a mile and has loads of good music and food.

Stayed in mooring field, all went well. The only issue was that the fuel dock was closed to diesel boats due to maintenance issues on both pumps.

by David C. - Verified user on Apr 16, 2022
The moorings are well kept and right next to downtown. It's just a short dinghy ride. The instructions do not show the dinghy dock. Reservations are a little confusing since the moorings are first come, first served and so the Dockwa reservation is only for payment.

by DENNIS B. - Verified user on Apr 15, 2022
Very nice municipal marina walkable to the commercial / entertainment district in a charming little town. Nice facilities and friendly staff. Opportunities: bathrooms could use a bit more (cleaning) attention and a rack or shelf in the shower for toiletries would be helpful. But all in all, very positive. We will definitely return.

Moment of Zen stayed on the transient dock at Gulfport Marina for two weeks in February 2022 and another two at the end of March. The well-protected marina is located off Boca Ciega Bay in charming Gulfport, a town within the famously charming city of St. Petersburg. The marina itself, especially for transients, couldn't be more pleasant. The transient dock is long, wide, and floating, with easy approach and knowledgeable assistance on docking. If you have your car, there is a large parking area just outside the gate. The marina has all the usual amenities, including internet, laundry and very nice bath facilities. Equally alluring is the opportunity of spending hours strolling along the town of Gulfport's shady, old-Florida low-traffic streets. It's small downtown area is a pleasant half-dozen blocks or so away, with uncommon restaurants and shops to further idle away the time.

by David B. - Verified user on Feb 24, 2022
Pros: peaceful overnight stay on the transient dock. There was no breeze so there were no halyards dinging on masts, no loud noises from the area around the marina. Marina staff were pleasant and professional. Water in the morning shower was just right, you just have to be patient at first. Cons: nowhere except the shower floor to put your soap or shampoo. No shelf near the sink to set items on for use. The slanted mirror was mounted too low over the sink to see anything above my chin.

by Alan F. - Verified user on Dec 31, 2021
Transient docks were on the same dock as the charter fishing, shelling,etc. party boats. Therefore, the gate to the marina was left wide open much of the time. This was a security issue and needs to be addressed. Otherwise, the marina was a great place to spend a few days with good shower facilities and a small marine store.

We picked up a mooring ball off Gulfport to meet some friends for dinner. The mooring field is very convenient to the beautiful dinghy dock at the casino. The balls were in good shape and appeared well maintained. Only 4 stars because there is very little protection from West and South winds. It was blowing from the north while we were there and the night was very comfortable.

Due to late arrival we called around 3;00 pm and spoke with Tez. He indicated that he would leave a key for the dock on the ice machine, but unfortunately he forgot, leaving us stranded at the dock. Fortunately, other guests shared their key. VERY INCOVVIENT. The marina should comp us that night!

Good, helpful staff. We were on a reasonably priced mooring right off town of Gulfport, which is a nice little place with lots of restaurants and bars. Dinghy dock in town was just rebuilt when we left. We dinked about 1.3 NM into marina to go ashore. Boca Ciega Bay has a bit of fetch so can get a little choppy in a breeze, but not much current so boat rides into waves. Weekends and holidays can also produce some chop from boat traffic. Enjoyed our stay. If we get back around this way will likely come back here.

Sorry to do only 2 stars this visit May 23rd 2021 but... We arrived there around noon time from Clearwater after a 3.1/2 hours of sailing. We did call the marina before we left Clearwater and we were told yes we have a slip, call us when you get closer. Then on arrival we were told to dock on a T-dock across the gass station. Not a real slip with pylons and no robber fenders risking damages to our 38 ft sail boat. There was a strong current in the marina and since that dock wasn't floating the help we were told was coming to help was not there one of the 2 managers was rather rude expressing his frustration as if "an other idiot came to the marina" To make things worst later on before 5:00pm (the office closes at 5:00) I did see empty spots on the floating dock and i asked if we can spend the night there? The answer was no we are expecting other boats.... Next morning those slips were still empty and available. 2 years ago i would have given it a 5 star as we loved it there and the treatment was much better. Thank James for your good nature and helping.

Can't say enough good things about this marina. Came down for a long weekend for daughter's college graduation and needed a place to keep boat on water for a couple days. Every place was full or didn't do overnight dockage. Ran into FWC Officer Ross, great guy,, he made 1 phone call to this marina and explained the situation.....of course they were full, but no worries, they came up with a spot for us. James and his gang at the marina are top notch! Very friendly and more than accommodating. Marina has gas and diesel fuel, live bait and a few grocery items as well. Also, have a 2 lane boat ramp with plenty of parking for size of marina. Again, just a great all around marina with a great staff.. .Thanks again James for they stay!

This marina is Excellent! We have stayed at many places over the years and this is at the tops. We stayed 2 nights and It is out of the way from boat traffic and freeway traffic. You get a good nights sleep tied to the slip. NO Noise ! They have new showers/bathrooms upstairs and a nice large common room for gathering. Free Wifi! We bought beer, sandwiches, and fuel as well. The staff is amazing!!!! O'Maddys Pub in Gulfport is .5 miles away. You can walk or uber it depending on weather. The marina let us borrow 2 bicycles for free and we peddled there in 3 minutes. You get a key to the gates and showers and this place is very secure. We felt comfortable leaving our boat unlocked with keys in it. Booking through Dockwa made it a breeze !!! We will definetely go back !!!!! Ron and Charlene

We rented a mooring ball, but also came in to purchase fuel and take on water. The facilities are nice and they have a dinghy dock for those renting a mooring ball.

by Rebecca M. - Verified user on Apr 12, 2021
Everyone was very accommodating. Very nice to have gracious hosts. The dinghy dock at the mooring field is a bit difficult to navigate as the anchored boats, which is the majority of boats, take up a lot of the room. It is a floating dock and can get very rough with boats blowing through the mooring field. If I had a new dinghy, I probably wouldn’t use the dinghy dock!

Stayed on a mooring for two months earlier this season because we had twork on chain plates and the windlass. The location is very convenient to St. Petersburg but without the density. We grew to love the town of Gulfport and found the marina staff friendly and accommodating. Our only complaint is related to the fetch with wind from SE to W. But that's life on the water, eh?

Stayed on a town mooring for the month of February. Great town, always something going on and boaters are welcomed. Marina services were excellent on the occasions that we went in for supplies, fuel and water. George was more than accommodating and, when not booked, allowed us to tie up for a few hours waiting for an instacart delivery as the mooring field is a pretty far row for our motor less Avon. Only suggestion is to try to expand the mooring field dingy dock as it gets really crowded.

Nice marina. A bit off the ICW path but great fuel prices and nice and protected. The staff is very friendly and there are some great restaurants just a short walk away. We'll be back! We came back and our stay was as good as the first time! Great staff and downtown Gulfport is excellent!

by Karen C. on Feb 14, 2021
We stayed on a mooring for a month. Very nice area, the marina staff was friendly, courteous and helpful. The city of Gulfport is a short dinghy ride and has a quirky, Key West vibe. Restaurants, bars and shops are all within walking distance from the town dinghy dock. And don’t miss the Tuesday Market! The town dinghy dock is usually pretty full as it is shared with those on the moorings as well as those anchored outside the mooring field. And unfortunately, there are those who tie up with 2 foot painters. But, we always found a spot to tie up. The marina is a little ways from the mooring field. Depending on the winds, could be a wet ride. The laundry facilities are adequate, never had to wait to use one or both of the machines. The dinghy dock at the marina was great, never overcrowded. Provisioning is not close. Publix and other larger grocery stores were approximately 3 miles away, so not very convenient. There is plenty of public transportation, but with Covid in full swing, we chose to avoid that. The mooring field is pretty much protected from the north and east. Not very well protected from the south or west. Can be a bit rolly from the ICW traffic, mainly on the weekends. The city has a pump out boat that comes out to the mooring field on Tuesdays and Thursdays, no charge. During our month long stay, we received many packages delivered to the marina office and had no problems with them getting to us. When in Gulfport again, we would not hesitate staying here!

Marina very well protected from wind in all directions. Bit of a circuitous route around bay to get to very clearly marked entrance channel. Stayed on very nice floating transient/dinghy dock. Wind blew 20 to 30 knots first 2 days of our stay & we barely moved. Because dock is dual purpose, its a bit low. We were glad we had our folding stool aboard. Restrooms were very nice.

Mooring balls are great BUT Dockwa should have had a warning that mooring field is restricted to SAILBOATS ONLY. This is an unfortunate rule

Dinghy dock badly overloaded with too many tenders— on Tuesday morning! Dinghy dock closing down completely for 24 hours for fireworks. Otherwise great mooring field and delightful town.

Staff was super helpful in making sure we found our mooring (ended up arriving after dark). Day slips were damaged from a storm but dinghy dock was open. Town was a blast...great food, drinks, shopping, and hospitality. We’ll be back soon.

We stayed at Gulfport about 2 months ago on our overnight during our ASA certification. We are actually returning today to stay a week after purchasing our 1993 Hunter 35.5. Although we had our instructor they were very helpful docking and came out to help with the lines. As newbies at docking they were very understanding 😊 it was a very nice marina in a great area and we are happy to be moving there for a week from the St Pete Municipal Marina. With more amenities and a very well protected marina it was a great experience. We stayed on the transient floating dock but I think other docks may be fixed but you need to confirm that depending on which slips you are in. Showers are very clean and nice and small marina store is very convenient. Very well protected just off the ICW. The approach is small so check the instructions about their private aids. Less than 10 min walk through a quiet residential neighborhood puts you in old town Gulfport where there is a nice little pier, lots of restaurants on the water and a small quaint “beach town feeling” Main Street with shops and more restaurants. We will post another review after staying a full week with updates but I expect we will have the same feelings of this stay as well. Just hope docking in 15+ knot winds for newbies is as easy as last time 😊

Always a nice experience when staying at this marina. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Plenty of transient dock. Shower, washer/dryer, fuel pump out stations etc. The Marina is a quaint and peaceful place located in the small town of Gulfport FL. which has a bit of a Key West vibe to it. The marina is only a couple of blocks from downtown Gulfport's shops, bars, pier and bay. The town is easily accessible by bicycle or walking.

by Ivan M. on Mar 16, 2020
The docks and shower facilities are clean and well taken care of. We stayed over a week and like the location being close to town. The only problem we had, and it is a big one, was having an important boat part mailed to the marina and they lost it in their offices and never gave it to us. We asked every day and they said it had not been delivered. After we left the marina to move onto our next destination on the loop, they called us and said they found it. Someone had covered it up with "stuff" and they didn't find it until we were gone. After 2 weeks and a promise to mail it to an address we gave them, we find out they did not follow through and it's sitting at the gulf port post office. Now a month has past and we still don't have our part. Beware of having anything mailed to you at this marina.

We stayed in the mooring field which is directly off the beach in the downtown section of town. We only traveled to the Municipal Municipal Marine once to pickup guests. The dingy ride was a very long wet ride (approximately one mile?) We saw no reason to make this trip again even though the bay calmed down during our stay. The staff was very helpful during our short visit. The city dock near the casino has a small dingy dock which we used for the balance of our stay. Lots of restaurants and shops in this area. We would visit again but may opt to anchor just outside of the mooring field as many local visitors did while we were here. The only drawback to using the dingy dock is that it is limited to four hour in a 24 hour period. However I don’t think they enforce this. However, I wouldn’t leave it there overnight. The dock is closed from 3:00am to 7:00am. That would be very easy to enforce. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would return again.

Plenty of room for our catamaran at this mooring field. Took the dinghy in to the dinghy dock and walked a few steps to O'Maddy's for a nice late lunch with music. Only issue is that music carries out to the field and lasts till about 1130.

by Phong L. on Jun 02, 2019
Great staff who will work with you for what you need. The transient slips are easy to get into and out of. Small laundry facility. The surrounding area of Gulfport is small but always fun - there's a floating boat/dinghy dock that's free for 4 hours at a time; the casino isn't for gambling but more of a community event center; great brunch spots and great local restaurant/bars. The mooring field is a bit out of the way and they're still working out a dinghy dock if you choose to grab a ball (but the staff are more than happy to work with you to accommodate your needs). You will need to contend with the occasional rude power boater who can't help but to speed through the moorings. Sailing is a blast in Boca Ciega Bay where the marina is located. Beware if you anchor out as holding isn't all that good and after a 20+ knt blow, there's often a boat that didn't heed the warning and gets pushed up ashore. Pump outs are included and easy... a boat comes out to you if you're on a ball, or just pull up to the fuel dock in the marina itself. The fuel dock's pumps are unexpectedly fast - so keep that in mind if you're used to taking more than a few minutes to fill your tanks. Internet is fast but does not extend out to the mooring field. The bay is well protected from weather and is extremely easy to get to all of the other places within the area like Pass a grille, the Gulf, St Pete Beach, the ICW, Tampa Bay, etc. There's easy access to the nearby Pinellas Trail if you like biking that spans the width of St Petersburg. If you like kayaking, Clam Bayou is just around the corner. There's a free tram you can call up if you don't want to walk within the city of Gulfport. Excellent and easy access to any marine services you need in the area. Boat.US towboats, coast guard, and FWC are all stationed in or about the marina. There's no shortage of family owned business and smiling faces to service your boat. The minuses only apply if you take a mooring ball. It's a 10-15 minute dinghy ride to the marina; power boaters will wake through the field despite well placed signage; and no wifi when moored. Despite all that, those negatives of the mooring field are balanced by being right in front of downtown Gulfport; moorings are for sailboats only. In any case, they're constantly improving the Marina and a lot of it is new; so who knows, these negatives may have been resolved by the time you get here.

by James C. on May 11, 2019
Stayed at the new mooring field. Balls and pendant lines are great. Only, but big issue is the lack of dingy space at the dock. For $24/day would expect room to dock a dingy. At St. Pete they have a dedicated, floating dingy dock that is locked from the shore side for the mooring field.... here you must hope for space.

by Christine B. - Verified user on Apr 28, 2019
The marina was overbooked and our slip and those of our friends were much too small for our boats. We had 1 inch between our boat and the piling on one side and zero inches on the other. Won’t be going back!

We stayed for 3 nights on a mooring. The setup of the mooring field is excellent, with comfortable spacing between moorings.

The showers are clean and well maintained. We will definitely visit again.

We stayed aboard one week at the marina, a couple days in a slip (fixed dock) then moved over to to the transient floating dock. We were welcomed from driving in to launch our boat to our exit, filling up on gas & water enroute to explore Tampa Bay. All facilities were clean and cared for, used the showers, laundry and the boaters lounge upstairs. There are separate showers for daytrippers vs staying in the marina, those upstairs are modernized and prettier, but all had hot, adjustable water w good showerheads (just need soap dishes). The gates are open in the daytime but locked at night, we felt very safe. Easy walk over to the main Gulfport business district with great restaurants (especially O'Maddys), beautiful seafront with dinghy dock. The marina mooring balls are off there, would have loved to use them, but no powerboats allowed. Loved all the bird life in the marina, visited by a dolphin, herons & egrets, best marina we have ever visited!

by RJ B. on Mar 20, 2019
Beautiful new mooring field across from a vibrant waterfront. The marina is well-sheltered, clean, in good repair, and boasts a sharp staff and a good little ship's store. Gulfport loses one star from me ONLY because it is one very long row from the mooring field to the shower.

Great Marina! Very friendly and helpful staff! You dock along floating dock, there’s only room for 4-6 boats depending on size, so plan ahead. The floating dock is at a dead end, and it may be a little tight to turn around if you’re on. 45’+. Clean facilities! Some improvements underway which will make it even better.

Great well protected stop. Tony,Dennis and staff couldn't be more helpful-will guide you to slip help tie and hook up. Some showers new and even old ones are spotless.
