Garage/Lot/Street Parking:

Some free street parking is available Downtown, near the Fleet Center, and behind Quincy Market if you're willing to drive around a bit. There is basically none in the South End. Leave yourself time and read the signs carefully! Parking tickets are $50 and up but there has to be a sign in order to get a valid ticket. Park 10 ft. from hydrants and 20 ft. from intersections.

RECOMMENDED: We have $11 Validated Parking at the 75 State St. Garage (enter garage on Broad St). Their Website»

75 State St. Garage is three blocks away from the dock. Walk straight down State St. to Long Wharf.
To get this rate, pick up a validation coupon at the cruise ticket table.

Many other garages in the immediate area are very expensive. Aquarium "Harbor Garage" is $30+, BEWARE! Quincy Market, Boston Harbor Hotel, and 200 State St. are all about $20-$30.
