Loggerhead Marina – St. Petersburg

Loggerhead is a wonderful place to keep our boat and the location is perfect for us. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The new pool and BBQ area is exceptional. The shower and bath is usually clean. Except during holidays and high peak usage. And this is more a problem of the people not being respectful of others. The only thing I would change is keeping the Captains Lounge open later. Little concerned about future parking. We use the marina mostly on week days so there is much less of a crowd. We use our boat more frequently because Loggerhead is so convenient. Overall, we love the place!

Loggerhead is a very nice marina with options of covered slips and a huge dry slip building. This location used to sell slips but the economy didn’t help and they’ve converted to a regular marina. If you are looking for a permanent mooring their facilities are very nice but very pricey. It makes for a good pitstop for fuel, but I wouldn’t recommend it to stay overnight on a longer trip. There is not a lot to do and it’s location is not exactly convenient to walk or bicycle anywhere interesting. You’ll be cabbing it to a restaurant. They do have a nice pool and bathroom/​facilities.
Their dry slip building is hurricane rated, and they’ve offered deals for boaters to have their boats stored there in case of hurricane, but you need to call and reserve ahead of time and pay a fee to reserve a spot, and they keep the fee whether you use the storage or not. Think of it as «insurance». It’s nautical location is very convenient, and they have some slips with nice tarp covers that don’t rust and provide some protection from the sun for your boat.
I’d say Loggerhead is one of the nicer marinas in the area, and you will pay accordingly. They are worth a look if you are looking for a permanent home for your boat.
