The Boat Docks connect the park and the waterfront. Whether you are coming or going, we provide a place to dock your boat and experience our spectacular waterfront.

Our park features two sets of docks: Harbor Docks (by the Great Lawn) and the Amphitheater Docks (by Towhead Island). Docking is free and available on a first-come, first-served basis. However, we suggest and would appreciate a donation of $50 per day. Be mindful that docks may be closed during large events. We recommend you call ahead for information. Water and electric hookups may be available.

We reserve a portion of the Amphitheater Docks for seasonal and annual rentals. Please pay attention to signs designating reserved slips.

Overnight Docking
