Matanzas 5K Parking
Parking in the City Garage next to Finish Line is FREE IF YOU
ARRIVE INSIDE THE GARAGE BEFORE 7:00 A.M. After that, the
cost is $12.00 flat rate for the entire day. Race organizers had no
control over that rate set by the City. The race receives no portion of
that parking fee. If you plan on staying for the day, this is a good
option.
Parking on the City streets is allowed anywhere the curb is NOT
yellow, and where “Reserved Parking” does not appear on a sign or
on the pavement. There are many such spots on San Marco Avenue
and U.S 1 (Ponce de Leon Ave.) near the race Start/Expo.
Parking lots around Expo will be available on a 1st come – 1st served
basis. The lots are accessed via Orange Street. These lots will fill
quickly with volunteers, but if there are spots available, you may park
there.
Parking at Castillo de San Marcos is metered and enforcement
begins at 8:00 a.m. so you will need to pay to park there, but it is
only $1.50 per hour. The meters take credit/debit cards. More

Parking at Prince of Peace Catholic Church at 100 San Marco Ave. is
free and is ½ mile from Expo/Finish Line.
