Parking in Mobile

[AWCHIEF]

Does anyone have any current information on alternative parking in Mobile? Cheaper than the terminal and within walking distance would be nice.

There is a city deck at 8 Water Street ran by Central Parking Services. The lady I spoke with on the phone and through email said it is less than 2 blocks from the cruise port. It is $12 per 24 hour period. So for a 4 day, it would be $48. You pay after the cruise with cash or credit.

 

Haven't parked there before, but plan on it next month.

ugagal07, Thank you, that sure beats $70 for a four day at the terminal.

Last weekend I parked at the Mobile Bay Adventure Inn on Church St for $5 a day $20 for a 4 day cruise. I carried the wife and luggage and dropped them off at the cruise terminal and went and parked, it is .04 miles from the terminal a short walk. Then when we got back from the cruise we grabbed a porter and he carried our luggage out to where the taxi's where and it cost $7 for the taxi back to hotel parking. That it is a few drink of the day.

Just got back and wanted to update the last few sailings about off site parking.

 

We parked for $12/day at 8 Water St. It is the deck connected to the Convention Center. We parked, walked across the walkway above the street, and down the sidewalk all the way to the terminal. A 5-7 minute walk, nice even sidewalk all the way. People reported waiting in line for 25-30 minutes to get into the deck at the terminal, not us. Parked, short walk, luggage dropped off, and in line to check in before they even got parked.
