Great Harbormaster. Try to get a mooring away from the commercial channel on the west side. Can be noisy and trafficy

We appreciated the email they sent us showing us exactly where the mooring location was. The mooring balls had green flags for easy identification. Very well organized and it was a pleasure to stay there. We wish other marinas would follow suit.

Gloucester Harbor Moorings are a great option to enjoy Gloucester by water or by land. Very well marked moorings. They have a dingy dock walking distance to restaurants and the boulevard or they also have a launch if needed.

Simple but very well run. One of the best maps of a moorings field we’ve seen. We were able to plot a course all the way to our mooring. Free launch service.

Such an interesting town full of history. It doesn’t feel as “touristy” as so many places, but lots of wonderful restaurants and interesting stores and markets. The launch service was prompt in a beautiful and dry launch boat, and is included in the mooring fee. Beautiful walk along the seawall to the fisherman’s memorial and then the fishermen’s wives memorial. We stayed on an inner harbor mooring which was just minutes from town. The moorings in the outer bays, although beautiful and secluded, would be a significantly longer ride into town. One of my favorite stops!

Amazing! Such a beautiful harbor and the staff in the Dockmasters office went above and beyond to make sure we were safe.

We love staying on a mooring in Gloucester. Beautiful location, lots to do, helpful harbormasters.
One note of caution is that Ten Pound moorings get a lot of big wakes because the no wake zone can is well AFTER it rather than a distance before it (which would help to to slow boats down). It would be great if the no wake zone started at the lighthouse, therefore before all of the moorings.

Amazing transient boater facility and the harbormasters office was friendly to work with and very accommodating.

Excellent stay as always…. Clean/ well maintained mooring gear, friendly harbormaster team and very nice Mariners lounge…. We enjoy Gloucester and it has so much to offer when visiting! We will be back again next season, if not before for sure.

Pleasant as always. Really nice facilities. Friendly & helpful HM staff. Appreciated the very clear email with explanation of the mooring fields & layout. The flag/ number on the mooring pick up stick was a great touch - so easy to find our mooring.

Outstanding harbor, Harbormaster and launch services. Great moorings, with inner harbor ones closer to town, but with launch service it's not hard to get anywhere.Inner Harbor which was great. The town is wonderful, well worth a visit. Great restaurants, shops (awesome shoe store, Mark Adrian, lovely women's clothing at Sample This) and a wonderful chocolate shop, Turtle Alley. Highly recommend a visit to Gloucester!

This was our 4th visit to Gloucester, staying overnight in the inner harbor. The Harbormaster, staff and and launch service are all top notch. Very friendly, welcoming and appreciative of the boaters staying there. Their facilities are also very nice and clean. Their location is easy walking distance to several great restaurants and fun spots. Highly recommended! A+

Attended the Bunker Hill Reenactment. The Launch operators provided excellent service and a helping hand. The facilities are in good condition, and I appreciate the Mariners Lounge. One suggestion is to update the reservation email when the lounge code changes.

Always a great stay in Gloucester! Well marked moorings with pick up sticks, dinghy dock, and clean transient boater facility. The door code for the boater lounge just needs to be updated on Dockwa. Thanks again for another great stay!

The staff operating the launch service as well as the harbour master have been very welcoming and helpful! We will be back in September!

Met by the launch and provided information. Mooring was in good shape. Launch drivers were great. Mariner’s Lounge was fine; one of the two men’s showers was non-op, the other was fine.
