Waikawa Marina

Waikawa Marina sits at the south-western end of Waikawa Bay near Picton, on New Zealand's South Island, and is the third-largest floating marina in the country.

Operated by Port Marlborough, it holds over 600 berths accommodating vessels from 8 to 30 metres, all with power and water connections.

The marina also offers a hardstand, boat sheds, a travelift, fuel, and 24-hour security, and holds International Clean Marina accreditation.

Positioned at the head of Queen Charlotte Sound in the Marlborough Sounds, Waikawa serves as a popular gateway for cruising the region's sheltered bays and waterways.

It sits just minutes from Picton's ferry terminals and airport, making it a practical base for both visiting and resident boaters.
