Location & Overview Cat's Paw Marina sits at mile marker #780 in St. Augustine, Florida, less than a mile from the Intracoastal Waterway and just a 15-minute boat ride from the St. Augustine Inlet and downtown historic district. Since 2007, the marina has grown into one of Northeast Florida's most trusted dry stack storage facilities, with a straightforward mission: take the hassle out of boating. From fueling and launching to full-service repairs, the Cat's Paw team handles the details so boaters can spend more time on the water and less time preparing for it.
Boat Storage & Services Cat's Paw Marina offers both dry rack and transient boat storage, with every storage agreement including unlimited boat launches and a courtesy rinse after each use. For service and repairs, Waylen Bay Marine operates on-site, bringing decades of combined expertise across new and pre-owned boats and all major brands — giving boaters a one-stop destination for storage, maintenance, and repair in the Jacksonville and St. Augustine area. Boats stored or docked at Cat’s Paw also benefit from DS Diving’s underwater services, keeping hulls, running gear, and zincs maintained between haul-outs.
Fishing Charters Boaters looking to get out on the water without their own vessel can book through Sea Love Charters, St. Augustine's original party boat experience since 1980. Operating out of Cat's Paw Marina, Sea Love's experienced crew guides guests through the offshore waters of Northeast Florida for both thrilling fishing trips and relaxed scenic cruises, making the marina a launch point for adventure as well as storage.
Amenities & Dining Beyond boat storage and service, Cat's Paw Marina is equipped for a full day on the water. Boaters have access to high-speed fuel pumps with ethanol-free gas and diesel, a fillet station and rinse & flush stations to make cleanup easy after a day of fishing, a fully stocked ship store carrying beer, wine, seltzers, snacks, and apparel, and transient docks that accommodate vessels up to 50 feet. After a day on the San Sebastian River, guests can grab a bite at the on-site Grouper Shack Restaurant, rounding out the marina as a true destination rather than just a place to park a boat.
