During the week there is plenty of free parking available immediately adjacent to our office and boats.There is paid parking available adjacent to our dock on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. This costs $5. However at weekends and when there is really good weather you may have difficulty finding parking. Parking early in the morning any day is usually not a problem, during the weekends at the height of summer after midday and until the early evening parking can be difficult to find.
