Pay for parking and your berth at the Harbormaster's Office. Berth is $15/night. Parking is $12 per calendar day for your vehicle and trailer. Dock key deposit is $25, refundable.

If you arrive late, you may have to park in over-flow parking, which is a block away from the launch ramp.

The Monterey Marina is not accepting reservations for groups in advance any more. But there's no worry -- the staff at the Harbormaster's office says there will be plenty of slips if you arrive on time.

In 2008, approximately two dozen skippers arrived with their boats on Friday or earlier, which made their Saturday schedule much more relaxed.
