Mission Bay Classic PARKING!!!
As all of you Mission Bay savvy people may know the easy places to park, I will be struggling to get out on the water as I am sure MANY other people will be. If you have an idea of the best place to park NOT at the OEX parking lot or the one by the boat ramp (as there will be 100 plus vehicles fighting for a spot) that would be GREATLY appreciate. Thanks guys! |

I don't get there the night before just because, I'd rather get there 12 hrs early and have a good time than to have to leave my house at 2am and fight for parking. I know for some it's not possible but that's why I always plan my day for this or any other large events as soon as the dates are set.

We start checking people in at 6 am and start at 7am, so finding a spot in one of the 2 lots should not be a problem..........everyone coming later in the day will be the ones struggling.

I plan on parking somewhere near by and kayaking over. Hoping that saves me "1-2 hours" trying to leave since there's construction on the road and only 1 lane.

For events like these you have to plan for the parking, in years past I've arrived at 2 A.M. and slept in my vehicle for a few hours to get a parking spot I wanted. Yesterday, I got there at 3:30 A.M. and the spot I like was taken, so I found another one, no big deal. Slept for a couple of hours. The event was nice, parking no issue, too bad the fish weren't playing like I wished they would. Thank you OEX for hosting this again.
