Corby114 Posted May 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 16, 2022 The safest place to park your vehicle is at the Port Of Miami. The parking is reasonable, safe and secure. In almost every case you will return to a vehicle in the same condition that you left it. Too many posts over the years of vehicles being damaged at parking lots in the downtown Miami area. In one case cruise passengers returned from there voyage to find a homeless male sleeping in there vehicle. Many instances of shoddy shuttle service too. Outside lots in Port Everglades, Port Canaveral and Tampa are reasonable, safe and secure. Not so for Miami. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When doing so, study the map of the Port so that you have as clear as possible of an idea where you want to go. As a first time driver to the Port, the signage was poor and the traffic chaotic. Having an idea of what to expect and where to go was helpful for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current rate is $22 a day, twice or more the rate of most off-port parking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are paying for convenience and safety. We wouldn't park anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy The Wanderer Posted July 11, 2022 #9 Share Posted July 11, 2022 This is great information. Twice we've rented one-way cars to get to Miami and stayed overnight. Now I see there was no reason to do this. If we manage to sail this winter, we'll definitely drive to the port and park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
