How to get to the Deerfield Beach pier: address, train, airports

The Deerfield Beach International Fishing Pier is a City of Deerfield Beach facility on the beach in Broward County. This page gives the address, the train and bus links the operators publish, Freebee rides and the nearby airports. We do not give drive times or mileage, because no official source we read publishes them. Use a map app with the address below.

The address

The City gives the pier’s address as International Fishing Pier, 200 N.E. 21st Ave., Deerfield Beach, FL 33441. Some directories use 202 NE 21st Ave.; the City uses 200. The bait shop, where you pay to walk out or fish, is at the pier entrance. The pier phone is 954-250-4167, and the manager’s line is 954-250-4166.

Before you set off, check the hours. The City’s pier page, checked Oct. 20, 2026, posts hours of 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily and says holidays may affect them. The same page adds: “As of October 20, 2026, we will be CLOSED SUNSET through SUNRISE until further notice, due to maintenance needs.” No end date is given. Call the pier at 954-250-4167 before an early or late visit.

By car

Set your map app to 200 NE 21st Ave. The beach addresses around the pier share that street: the Main Beach lot is at 149 SE 21st Ave., and the City gives Ocean Rescue’s base as 71 Ocean Way (SE 21st Ave.), so Ocean Way is the name you will see on signs for the southern part. Every City lot is pay-by-plate, and the Pier lot costs $3 an hour on weekdays and $4 from Friday 4 p.m. to midnight Sunday. The parking page has the zones, the picker and the event-day closures.

• Ocean Rescue is headquartered at 71 Ocean Way (SE 21st Ave.), 2nd floor of the Fire Station. Beach conditions: (954) 480-4413. The city also publishes a Beach Conditions & Flags dashboard. City of Deerfield Beach: Ocean Rescue

By boat

We found no published boat landing at the pier. The City prohibits launching boats and kayaks from the public beach unless the City Commission authorizes it, and City Code bars paddling and kayaking within 150 feet of the pier. The City’s Pioneer Park Boat Ramp, at 217 N.E. 5th Ave., normally charges $1.00 an hour for parking, 24/7, but the City says the ramp has been closed for construction since February 23, 2026, with completion anticipated by the end of November 2026.
