Pier 32 Marina — Attraction in National City

Here is an update from several years ago. New management and my opinions have changed.

Old reveiw below: Pier 32 Marina in National City stands as a gleaming jewel of the South Bay, offering an immaculate and welcoming haven for boaters and visitors alike. Its pristine condition and exceptional maintenance set a high standard, distinguishing it as one of the premier marinas not just in San Diego County, but arguably along the entire California coast.

The marina's atmosphere is infused with a warm and congenial spirit, thanks to the amiable staff who go above and beyond to ensure a delightful experience for all. Whether you're a seasoned sailor or a landlubber drawn to the allure of the waterfront, Pier 32 Marina is a destination that promises enchantment and relaxation.

For a truly sublime experience, I highly recommend timing your visit to coincide with the Waterfront Grill's happy hour. This local favorite is renowned for its inviting ambiance and delectable fare, providing the perfect backdrop to unwind after a day of maritime adventure or simply to savor the vibrant hues of a San Diego sunset.

In essence, Pier 32 Marina isn't merely a place to dock your vessel; it's a gateway to a memorable escapade where the charm of Southern California's coastal lifestyle is yours to embrace. Do not miss the chance to indulge in this exceptional marina and the culinary delights of the...

STAY AWAY!!! Nice marina but horrible management! 1- They unlawfully withdrew $929 from my bank account 2- When asked for a refund they said they would send me a check but they wrote the check to a deceased man. 3- Told me to come to the office and pick up the corrected check and update my rental agreement, but then would not give it to me and instead said they would mail it to me. 4- Called after four days to find out what happened to my check and they happened to FedEx it to to the dead guy in Palm Desert . 5- I spoke with the manager Greg on the phone and complained about the nightmare I was having and he promptly came TO MY HOUSE and delivered my check.......AND A EVICTION NOTICE! Saying I was disrespectful and he didn't want me in his marina. I was a Tennant for over 10 years and I have given that marina over $100K in rent.

I you do stay there, be sure not to complain, and be ready to pay high rates for dock space. Be sure not to plan on eating after four o'clock because that's when the completely mediocre and high priced restaurant closes, and be ready to pay for parking as well. Whatever you do, don't ask for your money back when...

Very bad experience first time being in Coronado wanted to rent a jet ski for 2 hours young lady handed me a QR code please scan for reservations so I did Never explained we have multiple locations so here I go online trying to make reservations, Reservations completed walking up to the help desk young lady asked may I help you? Replied yes we have an appointment She looks oh yes but you're at the wrong location SMH well I asked Can we change location She replied Yes but instead of $95.00 an hour it's a $130.0] an hour After I had made reservations and paid for it online total was $216.00 so now it went from from $216.00 to $291.00 I'm like no we can do an hour for the $130.00 oh ok with a 3% charge for not doing 2 hours. The moral of this lack of communication, no details on locations just very poor service ! Now let's see if I can get back my $63.00 dollars like they promise. Please be careful guys it's all about money...
