City Marina at Garrison Bight is a 245-slip municipal marina on the north side of Key West with transient dockage and a 149-ball mooring field. Its 4.5-foot controlling depth and standard 50-foot vessel limit make it primarily relevant to smaller craft and superyacht tenders.
City Marina at Garrison Bight is a municipal Key West facility with 245 slips and a 149-ball mooring field. It supports transient, recreational and live-aboard vessels on the north side of the island.

City Marina at Garrison Bight is a municipal marina on the north side of Key West. The official marina information lists 245 slips together with a 149-ball mooring field, with accommodation for transient, recreational and live-aboard customers.
Official approach guidance states that Garrison Bight Channel has a controlling depth of 4.5 feet at Trumbo Point. Fleming Key Bridge has an 18-foot vertical clearance and power lines at the entrance to Garrison Bight have a 50-foot clearance, while the marina publishes a standard maximum vessel length of 50 feet with larger vessels requiring Dockmaster authorisation.
The marina sits at North Roosevelt Boulevard and Palm Avenue and is associated with Key West's Historic Charter Boat Row. Its combination of shallow controlling depth and vessel-size limitations means it should be regarded primarily as a local and small-vessel facility rather than a conventional berth for a large superyacht mothership.
Official rates effective from 1 October 2025 list daily and monthly transient dockage, with utilities additional. Captains and owners should confirm berth availability, current depth, overhead clearances, rates, registration and insurance requirements directly with the Dockmaster before arrival.
