Harbor workers Rick, AJ, Jerry, and Ron work to install replacement fender pilings on wharf 2. Our ongoing project of completing critical wharf repairs include quite a few fender pilings and fendering hardware. At the Marina entrance, and along wharf 2 you can find steel sleeving being installed over the damaged wood pilings. The sleeves are left to set and settle for several months then cut to height, bolted, and capped.

 

"Maybe you have maybe not" Each month divers from CSUMB Marine Biology Program volunteer their time and dive for garbage in and around the Monterey Harbor. Over the last five years it is amazing what the dive team has found and recovered. It is like the Johnny Cash song, "One piece at a time": Transmissions, toilets, guns, steering wheels, cylinder heads, batteries, cables, TV's. tires, tools galore, and many other items. Over time we have mapped the cleaned areas. Please keep items from falling in our precious waters. Dispose of items in proper waste, recycling bins, and keep docks clear of items that may fall into the water

 

The City of Monterey will be hosting six more cruise ships and three educational vessels in the last few months of 2018. Please be mindful of operations. If you have any questions please feel free to contact the Harbormasters Office 831-646-3950.
