St. Petersburg Municipal Marina

Northward along the St. Petersburg waterfront from the ship basin lie the Municipal Pier and three yacht basins. The pier is a concrete structure about 0.5 mile long; North Yacht Basin and Central Yacht Basin are on either side of its inner half, and both are enclosed by sea walls. The St. Petersburg Yacht Club is in the Central Yacht Basin.

Gasoline, diesel fuel, water, ice, marine supplies, launching ramps and open and covered berthage are available at the marina. A marina at the north end of the basin has transient slips and pump-out facilities. The telephone number is 727-824-8022, and the marina is also reached on VHF-FM channel 16.

The Coast Pilot gives depths of about 10 feet in the North, Central and South Yacht Basins.

It also writes that the two walled basins provide excellent protection for vessels up to about 125 feet. That sentence is about shelter, not about a length limit the harbour publishes – it does not say what the longest vessel is that the basins take, and this page does not turn it into that.

Lights mark the ends of the moles on either side of the entrance to the Central Yacht Basin, and a shoal area lies south of the entrance channel. Inside, there are numerous slips on the north and west sides of the basin and a public landing on the west side.

Every line above comes from one source: NOAA's Coast Pilot. The city's own website did not answer when this page was checked, on any of its addresses, so there was no operator page to read.

That is why there is no slip count here, no rate, no opening hours and no operator name: not because the marina has none, but because no page this guide could read carries them, and a figure nobody has read is a figure nobody should publish. The telephone number and the radio channel above are the Coast Pilot's.
