    As others have noted, power and water only. No fuel, pump out or showers. Given that, the rates are reasonable. Fantastic location. Right downtown with good access to lots of restaurants and things. Even more a short Uber away. Dock hands were very friendly and helpful. My only reason for 4 stars is that the gate that secures the dock at night was chained open and unable to be closed. The convention center manages that gate. Overall a very nice marina in a great location.

    Stayed at facility one night this week. Few amenities (power and water hook-ups only) but floating docks were clean and well maintained. Light rail station a short walk away goes to Ybor City (no cost). Various restaurants a short walk away. Marina dock hands Jason and Emily were very nice and accommodating.

    The marina is right at the heart of Tampa. We stayed last time (pre-COVID) to attend a concert at the Amalie Arena. This time just for a night away. The staff are helpful. However, there are few amenities. No showers, laundry, lounge or other things that you would expect for the fee.

    Our group of five boats ranged from 35 feet to 25 feet. We had no problems docking at these transient facilities. Reservations requested. The dock hands were skilled and the floating docks make tying up easy. Lots of room for our boats and a very convenient downtown location, central to sights, the trolley system, and walking trails. We stayed two nights and would go back.
