Grants & Loans: Investing in California

California State Parks Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) administers several grant and loan programs designed to improve and safeguard the boating experience for all users. Funds provided through these programs enhance recreational boating infrastructure and safety statewide from Mission Bay to Lake Shasta and many lakes, rivers, and streams in between.
California has approximately 2.6 million recreational boats and over 4 million recreational boaters. Recreational boating annually contributes several billion dollars to the state's economy, and DBW investments help to strengthen this economy through our many grant and loan programs.
Program specific details and contact information for each grant and loan program can be accessed using the links below. Current funding opportunities are located in the California Grants Portal.
