Brunswick Heads Boat Harbour and Marina sits on the Brunswick River and provides berths for visiting craft. Boaters should exercise caution when crossing the river bar at the heads, which can be hazardous.

The Marine Radio Base (MRB), located on the south wall of the Brunswick River, monitors vessel movements daily from 0600 to 1700. It operates on VHF channels 16, 22, and 73, as well as 27 MHz channels 88 and 90 and UHF channel 25.

Vessels without radio can contact the MRB by phone. Outside staffed hours, standby operators continue to monitor transmissions.
