Des Moines Marina is a close by delight to a place to walk around and find eats in the south Seattle area. Fisherman's pier was long and enjoyable watching boats pass by from the marina. Added to this is the gem along the marina walk to get wine, beer, coffee and small eats called"Quarterdeck". What a great place to hang out enjoying the view and adirondack chairs in the slight breeze mid September day. very enjoyable visit to the marina. free parking slightly up the hill if you walk.... or payed lot is by Quarterdeck at the marina or city park adjacent to that north marina end... ...

It was great, until a rougher crowd started showing up about 3:30pm. Which made the families and older people who were there, uneasy. It's a beautiful place, clean, and hopefully can stay that way.

A nice cool place to relax, walk around, and do some fishing the end of the pier; as you can see on the photos you can do crabbing here and at night go catch squids. Also its nice to bring kids here since the pier is right next to a beautiful park; so it is a plus if the parking is full over there you can here at the pier.

Very spacious parking, pier a little narrower than the ones I've been too which is not ideal given the pandemic. Very good place to go squid fishing when it's in season; at night you can even see schools of squids feeding close to the surface of the water.

First come first served and I stayed last night. Yay.
Call CSR Marine,they're the people that do that.
I renewed my marina parking pass by calling the marina office and leaving a message. They returned my call very quickly.
Well on my opinion you have to factor in the Cost of maintenance; Insurance; and moorage. Moorage can depend on length of the vessel. Tax wise you have exemptions on business but certainly a home you will have Taxes a boat you pay licensing fees. However a house is Real Property and a boat is a vehicle vessel. Meaning you can pull mortgage on a home and it may go up on value. A vessel drops in value. I would do my homework and start visiting Marinas Moorage places and Marina Boat Maintenance place that cleans the bottom. It all depends what works for you and what your goals are. Just saying in my opinion. Good Luck on the BNB. 👍
Go ask in the palce ..onlu thing l now is beautiful safe and gate place.
yes it does...but you have to pay for parking... used to be free for all now is only for the well off.
Crabbing is allowed at marina however it requires a shellfish permit and there are specific seasons.Also regulations on what sex and size can be kept.Contaxt WDFW for these answers
Thank you! We have done that over the last year or so and they wont do anything.
It's not just Des Moines.Its county ordnance, basically a rest area you have a certain amount of hours and aside from camp grounds that's about it.Its not really legal to sleep in your car very many places.....in fact,you can't live in your car in your own driveway or live in a RV in your own driveway in King county
Large parking lot is located on the dock portion. They have recently added new paid parking booths that have blocked the wide entrance, so some difficulty may be had.
