This 58.3-acre community park sits along the Columbia River Renaissance Trail, which connects the site to Wintler and Esther Short parks. Marine Park is the only boat launch operated by the City of Vancouver.

Picnic Shelter Reservations
The picnic shelter is available to reserve for events taking place May 1-Sept. 30. For more information, visit our Picnic Shelter Reservations webpage.

Park Use Permits
A Park Use Permit gives you permission to bring special items and equipment into the park and describes any approved special services or park staff assistance.  It is different than a picnic shelter reservation and requires an addition fee. Types of activities that require a Park Use Permit include but are not limited to:

  • Inflatable bounce houses (personal bounce houses are not allowed in City of Vancouver parks and will not be permitted)
  • Pop-up tents or extra tables/chairs
  • Amplified music or a loudspeaker
  • A public event such as a sporting event, charity activity, festival or concert

For information visit our Park Use Permit webpage.

Boat Launch Parking Fee
Parking fees are required at the Marine Park Boat Launch year-round. The daily parking fee is $10 per vehicle. Vehicles must be parked in designated parking spots. Those parked illegally may be ticketed and/or towed.

How to Pay for Parking
You can pay the parking fee through the Parking Kitty app or mobile pay website. For information about parking with a placard or special license plate, please visit the Disabled Parking webpage.

Annual Parking Passes
We offer annual parking passes for frequent visitors. Annual passes can be purchased for $50 at Firstenburg or Marshall community centers and cover the daily parking fees at Marine and Wintler parks. An annual pass does not guarantee a parking spot if the lot is full.
