What To Do at Flamingo Marina

The Flamingo Marina, open year-round, has excellent ramps where several boats can launch at one time. The marina can accommodate up to 50 boats but with limited electric and water hook-ups.

The marina is the main gateway to saltwater fishing available on Florida Bay and brackish/fresh water in the backcountry. Popular species include snapper, sea trout, redfish, bass, bluegill, tarpon and snook.

Fishing licenses are not sold here or anywhere in the park. You need to come with one. (They're readily available in Homestead/Florida City, including WalMart.)

The marina can arrange full- or half-day fishing charters year-round that include fishing licenses, tackle, coolers and ice.

It also has fishing skiffs for rent with 40-hp engines that can carry up to 4 anglers. The shallow draft boats are idea for fishing in the backcountry. They can not be taken out into Florida Bay and they must be back by 5 p.m.
