Marina del Rey Jetties

The rock jetties that form the most seaward protective boundary of Marina del Rey qualify as public piers under CCR 1.88, which is why CDFW lists them next to the famous wooden piers. Calicos, perch, and mackerel live in the rocks. Watch your footing, the surge, and the north-jetty land-wall distinction — CDFW is explicit that the adjacent rock wall touching land is licensed water.

What you'll find here

CDFW public-pier jetties. South jetty is listed clean; north jetty has a land-wall license note.

License & access

Marina Del Rey South Jetty is a CDFW public pier. North Jetty: on the adjacent rock wall touching land a fishing license is required.

Regulations reminder

Size limits, bag limits, seasons, and MPA rules are set by CDFW and can change in-season. Public-pier license exceptions (CCR 1.88) apply only on qualifying structures — not on the beach next to them. This is an independent site and is not affiliated with CDFW.
