The Dunedin Marina boat ramp and day docks are now closed. The City of Dunedin will begin dredging the marina on Monday, June 1st, with staging in the parking lot areas possibly starting a week prior. Usage of the day docks at the pier will be limited to Dunedin Marina slip Renters only, with permission from the Harbormaster. Annual boat ramp passes for 2020 will be extended for the same length of time the ramp is closed. The City’s objective is to ensure that the dredge is completed as quickly as possible. The contractual completion date for dredging is November 2, 2020, however the City has incentivized the contractor to encourage early completion. We truly appreciate your patience, and ask for your continued support and cooperation while these enhancements to our marina are underway.
The newly renovated Seminole Street Boat Launch is the nearest public boat ramp, located 2.8 miles south of the Dunedin Marina.

We acknowledge that there is no perfect time to dredge a marina and we do sympathize with the inconvenience that comes with these improvements. The good news is that the contractor is very committed to ensuring the work is completed as quickly as possible, weather permitting of course.
