There are two operations involved at Fishville for boaters. One is the marina office. The other is the fuel dock.
The marina office has NEVER been open at 07h00, and is NEVER open past 16h00.
We have been seasonal residents at Fishville for 11 years. There is a lot to like, but there are some weaknesses. When we departed this season (May 15th, 2020), the fuel dock was on "summer hours:" 08h00 to 16h00.
Call ahead to be sure whatever facility you need is open at the time you plan to be there.
Fishermen’s Village Marina, A CRUISERS NET SPONSOR, is taking responsible steps to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
Fisherman’s Village Marina, Punta Gorda, FL, in accordance with the State of Florida’s protocol, will not be accepting transients or new slip rental contracts until further notice. NOTE the essential services aspect of providing fuel will remain OPEN; so the FUEL DOCKS WILL REMAIN OPEN and will be following all recommended social distancing protocols.
