Marsden Cove Marina
Marsden Cove Marina sits right at the entrance to Whangārei Harbour, about 7km from the city, making it a natural first stop when you're arriving from offshore — it's also a NZ Customs Port of Entry, so you can clear in without heading further up the harbour. With around 236 berths and an 80-tonne haulout facility backed by a full boatyard, it's genuinely well set up if you need serious work done on your vessel.
