Boating in Miami, Miamarina, FL Map View

Small-craft facilities are distributed along the east and west shores of Biscayne Bay from above Baker Haulover Inlet to Dinner Key, on Miami River, and on Tamiami and Miami Canals. Marine railways, lifts, and launching ramps are available. Gasoline, diesel fuel, freshwater, ice, berthing with electricity, marine hardware, provisions, and telephone services are available about the harbor. Hull, engine, and electronic repairs can be made. There are many large hotels, motels, tourist homes, and restaurants.
During the winter tourist season, when berthing space is at a premium, many craft have to anchor in the bay off the facilities. There are dockmasters at most of them to advise and assist in finding a secure berth. Many of the large hotels at Miami Beach have their own docks.
The City of Miami Miamarina is at the northeast corner of Bay Front Park, which extends from the Dodge Island Causeway southward to Miami River and fronts on Biscayne Boulevard. The marina caters to private, commercial and sightseeing vessels. The facility has over 200 slips accommodating craft to 150 feet. Water, electricity, laundromat, and telephones are available. U.S. Customs and U.S. Department of Agriculture officials are on call at the dockmaster’s office; they also handle immigration and U.S. Public Health Service matters. In 1983, depths of 10 feet were reported in the approach with 9 feet in the basin. The dockmaster’s office, at the marina, is manned 24 hours a day.
