Mariner's Cove Marina, Gulfport Live Cam

This camera overlooks the launch basin of Mariner's Cove Marina in Gulfport, Florida, with the open water of Boca Ciega Bay beyond. A floating dock and boats waiting on steel racks fill the foreground, with sailboats at anchor far out on the bay.

Gulfport is a small waterfront city in Pinellas County, next to St. Petersburg. Mariner's Cove, founded in 1976, is a dry-stack marina: boats are kept on racks in a storage building and put into the water when their owners head out. It also has a fuel dock, and the Gulf of Mexico and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge are a short run away.

The view runs across the basin toward a green islet and the open bay, with a blue storage building and boat racks on the right. At low tide wide mudflats appear in front of the marina, and a row of buildings lines the far shore.
