On a rimmed cutting board or on a cutting board placed within a rimmed baking sheet, place the watermelon. Cut off both the stem and blossom end.
Place the watermelon on a cut end and using the knife, cut off the rind. Cut the melon in half lengthwise, then slice each half into ½-inch slices.
Arrange the watermelon on a serving tray. Arrange the berries around the watermelon on the tray. Wrap well and refrigerate until ready to serve.
