Ventura Harbor’s new Dry Boat Storage has recently been resurfaced and is now open with 88 dry storage spaces which can accommodate 14 to 43- foot size boats year-round. The Ventura Port District Dry Boat Storage is located conveniently across from the harbor’s public launch ramp and Dave’s Fuel Dock at 1540 Anchors Way Drive, making it accessible to the water for regular use and nearby to Ventura Harbor’s attractions, dining and shopping.

Within just steps, is the newly constructed Portside Ventura Harbor development slated to open its first residential units soon as well as the Ventura Marina Community, offering easy access to those residents who wish to house their boat on dry land.   Ventura Port District has invested $61,000 towards the Dry Boat Storage Lot refurbishment, with additional costs covered by the Anchors Way street modifications inclusive in the Portside Ventura Harbor residential development plans.

According to Brian Pendleton, Ventura Port District’s General Manager, “the newly re-opened storage facility provides boaters with the year-round option of keeping their boats in dry storage for added convenience and more regular use consistent with the Ventura Port Districts’ mission to provide exceptional boating facilities and services.”

Fees for Ventura Port District Dry Boat Storage range from $68 to $215 per month in the key-card fenced facility at Ventura Harbor.  A bonus for boat storage tenants includes a 50% off discount of the annual Ventura Harbor Public Launch Ramp Permit. Future plans for the dry boat storage area will feature a kayak rack for personal watercraft.
