Delray Beach City Marina - at a dock

 

First rate docks! 

So here’s the question. How much does it cost in a high rent district (Delray Beach) for a dock with the follow amenities after payment for the dock?

  • Laundry
  • Ice
  • Pumpout
  • 30 amp service
  • Concrete, 46 ft floating docks
  • Water
  • Toilet and tiled showers
The answer is $0. All of the above was included in my $65.20 dockage fee (including all taxes). The fee is a flat rate for 30 to 55 foot boats. The docks are brand new floating concrete docks, each with a ramp to land for easy access. What a deal! One of the locals on a boat at the marina acted as the marina dockhand  to help you in.

The shower facilities are the best I’ve seen, all tiled

We went bow in and for a view of the passing traffic. The marina is near the bridge so all the boats went by at idle speed. The beach is four blocks away but there’s a restaurant just up towards the bridge, less than a block away, right downtown with many shops and places to eat. 

The grounds were nicely done too

On Sunday, we’re headed south to Ft Lauderdale and hopefully, a mooring at Las Olas. We plan on spending a few days before heading on to Key West.
