Beautiful and convenient location. Amenities are good for a public marina. WiFi could be better.

Generally it is awesome! One issue: the security cameras cannot see my boat or several others nearby. When our boat was broken into last season that proved to be a problem.

We stayed here for a wedding that was being held in town after our original lodging plans fell through (staying on the boat is always better anyways!). Paula from the HM office was very helpful and accommodating. The main docks were full due to a fishing event but she was able to put us on their auxiliary location (a bulkhead pier adjacent to the Tides Motel) that had electric and water. It was a great spot being able to see all the local boats come and go. Wake was never an issue and it was pretty busy during the day. Will absolutely be coming back!!

Falmouth marina is always pleasant and easy to deal with. We left early due to bad weather and they quickly refunded the unused days without being asked.

Always a great stay in Falmouth. Top notch dock facilities..

by Marie B. - Verified user on Sep 12, 2024
Great marina! We were on the face dock so we could get to West Marine (across the street) and replace our refrigerator. After having come from Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket and staying on moorings for the same price as this dock, we were so happy. Clean bathrooms and showers and anything else you could need just a block or 2 away!

Great facilities & great folk

by Norman B. - Verified user on Sep 07, 2024
Staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. Showers and toilets are nice and clean. Great dining options within easy walking distance. Harbor is extremely busy on weekends which can be disconcerting when docking/undocking. On the other hand all the boat traffic can be interesting viewing.

Very helpful staff and excellent facilities.

by Robert P. - Verified user on Aug 29, 2024
Great experience all around. They were able to accommodate us at the last minute for an unscheduled additional night by re-arranging incoming vessels. Walking distance to Main Street. Highly recommend.

All better than expected: price, location, dock staff, condition of docks, baths and showers. A very pleasant surprise. my third stay. And my not very nautical wife said "I'd like to come back here again!"

by James W. - Verified user on Aug 11, 2024
Great location for watching harbor activity. Parking right there. String water pressure. Stable electric voltage. Excellent trash handling.

GENERAL MARINA INFORMATION:

The Falmouth Town Marina is conveniently located within a well-protected harbor for the area's most economically friendly marina experience. The marina is located @ 180 Scranton Avenue in historic downtown Falmouth, birthplace of "America the Beautiful" author Katherine Lee Bates. We are located less than 5 miles from Martha's Vineyard and only 3 miles from Woods Hole. The marina is walking distance from main street, beaches, groceries stores, shops and many fine restaurants. The marina consists of (7) floating finger piers and 108 total berths. The primary transient float is "D", directly in front of the marina building. We also rent out vacant seasonal slips as they become available. Larger vessels and overflow dockage is also provided at the east side of the mouth of the harbor (Tide's Bulkhead/flat wall tie up) and northern end of the harbor (Davis Bulkhead/flat wall tie up & Davis Floats).

During July and August, the marina is staffed from 8am to 8pm. The marina monitors VHF channels 16 & 9 and our working frequency is channel 12. Please contact the staff via radio or cell phone if you need any assistance during docking for arrivals or departures. The marina building has yachtsmen only bathrooms and showers. A key card is required to access that part of the building and available at the marina office. (Refundable cash key deposit required) Vehicle overnight parking is allowed in the marina by permit only during your stay. Permits are available at the office during check in. We do not provide parking for boat trailers. Public restrooms are also available on site. Low Data unsecured WiFi is limited to the main marina only in front of the marina building. (No WIFI at Robbins Road, Davis Bulkhead or the Tides Bulkhead)

Reservations in July and August that include a Friday or Saturday night require a minimum stay of two nights unless the slip is only available for one night.

SPECIAL IMPORTANT NOTES - PLEASE REVIEW BEFORE BOOKING:

TIDE'S BULKHEAD:

The Tide's Bulkhead (flat wall tie up with discounted rate) is used for vessels over 90ft, vessels with beams over 20ft and overflow from the main marina. (Discount fee of 25% applies in July and August) If you DO NOT wish to be placed on the bulkhead when our slips are sold out, please specify that in your comments. (IE no bulkhead-slip only) The Tides Bulkhead is approximately 2200' from the main marina, on the other (east) side of the harbor adjacent to the Tide's Motel @ 267 Clinton Ave. It is located at the entrance to the harbor so lots of boat traffic should be expected. It also abuts a busy motel and beach parking lot so vehicle traffic in the summer is heavy there. (Has power & water but no WIFI or restrooms) The Tide's Bulkhead at times may have inclement weather exposure due to the wave action that can take place at the mouth of the harbor due in part to the prevailing southwest winds in the summer. If you do not want a flat wall to tie up be sure to state "Slip Only" in your reservation comments.

DAVIS BULKHEAD:

The Davis Bulkhead is located at the north end of the harbor. Across the street from 26 Robbins Road and is approximately 1100' away from the main marina. (power & water but no WIFI or restrooms) The Falmouth Raw Bar restaurant is close by and can be noisy during the summer season. The fixed pump-out station is also located at this bulkhead so boating traffic can be heavy here.

INTERNET/WIFI:

Wireless Internet on LOW DATA mode is available at the main marina only. (180 Scranton Ave) Wi-Fi is not provided at the Tides, Robbins Road or the Davis Bulkhead locations. You can obtain the WIFI password at check-in.

SPECIFIC SLIP REQUESTS:

Requests for specific slips will be honored whenever possible but cannot be guaranteed. Slip assignments are subject to change without notice.

Should you require any assistance or have any issues you need addressed during your stay please contact the dock staff directly (508-457-2550), we are all happy to help and want to do all we can to ensure you have a great experience at the town marina. Gregg Fraser - Harbormaster
