You didn’t come this far to sit in just any marina! Experience the quintessential New Zealand by booking a berth at Waiheke Marina.
Located in a piece of paradise in Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf, Waiheke Island is the perfect place to base yourself. You get the best of both worlds here: peace and tranquility with the convenience of a big city not far away.
While tucked away in an island paradise, it’s just a ferry boat ride to the main land where you can jump on a bus, rent a car, catch an uber or head straight to the airport.
Comprehensive boatyard and maintenance services and fuel are just a short motorsail away at Half Moon Bay Marina, Pine Harbour or Tamaki Marine Precinct – just two of many great options in the Auckland region.
For your time on the island we offer rental cars so you can get around to the prized beaches, wineries, cafes and shops. Learn about Waiheke Island’s many great attractions at waiheke.co.nz.
If you’re arriving in or departing from New Zealand by yacht or small vessel, you’ll need to provide specific details to New Zealand Customs. All the necessary forms and guidance to meet border requirements are available on the New Zealand Customs website, and you’ll also receive these on arrival.
New Zealand has some of the world’s strictest biosecurity rules to protect its unique marine and coastal environments. These rules apply to biofouling, ballast water, and any potential marine pests or invasive species onboard.
On arrival, you’ll go through a Six-Step Biosecurity Process, which includes a vessel inspection. If you plan to stay in New Zealand for 21 days or more, you must provide proof of biofouling management before you arrive. Learn more about what’s required on the Ministry for Primary Industries website.
