Town Basin Marina

Town Basin Marina sits on the Hātea River in the heart of Whangārei, making it a central hub for both visiting cruisers and locals.

The marina offers around 200 berths and is operated by the Whangarei Heads Maritime and Marine Trades Trust alongside its other Northland facilities. Pontoon berths and pile moorings are available, with electricity and water connections on the pontoons.

The surrounding Town Basin precinct combines marine trades and services with shops, cafés, cultural attractions, and public spaces, giving it a lively waterfront character.

Its position within Whangārei township makes it a convenient base for exploring Northland's wider cruising grounds.
