Marsden Cove a comprehensively planned marine township with a 240 berth marina lies close to the entrance of the picturesque Whangarei Harbour. Close by is the beautiful 23km long Bream Bay ocean beach. A short distance off shore (22km) is the beautiful Hen & Chicken Islands. Slightly further north (55km) is the highly acclaimed diving; Poor Knights Marine reserve.
Marsden Cove is Northlands very own unique and comprehensively planned marine village found just within mouth of the Whangarei Harbour with a world class 230 berth Marina at its centre.
Marsden Cove Marina resides in the center of the Marsden Cove canal housing development, found just inside the entrance of the picturesque Whangarei Harbour. Surrounding the Marina is Marsden Cove’s residential development. The development consists of impressive waterfront and non-waterfront sections, with a number of already established homes and many in the building process. Marsden Cove is different from any other development as each waterfront section allows owners with adjoining private jetties to berth vessels mere meters from their front door step. Private jetties and boat ramp access makes boating easy. Section owners are able to simply launch the boat and within minutes pursue boating activities in the Harbour and beyond.
The Marina’s extensive facilities include a world class 230 berth Marina, complete with customs services, fuel dock, a range of waterfront retail facilities and Northland’s most popular public boat ramp. The unique marine based development is ideal for water and boating activities as it has complete tidal access to and from the marina.
LOCK & WEIR
The development is also home to New Zealand’s largest sophisticated Lock & Weir system. The system is used to create a unique and exclusive waterfront environment in the second and future stages. Essentially lots fronting the locked canal stages have the added benefit of an everlasting high tide. With stage one and two currently completed, the area is tipped to be one of Northland’s biggest growth regions.
MARINE ENVIROMENT
The canals flow with clean and fresh salty waters, perfect for swimming. The area has become a popular and enjoyable domain for an assortment of water activities such as kayaking, stand up boarding, plus many more. The public man-made beaches found in both stages are often busy with families as they make the most of the summer sunshine and warm water.
The locality of Marsden Cove is perfect for all the family, especially for those boating enthusiasts that love fishing, diving and cruising. Boaties don’t have to travel far to reach bountiful fishing, game fishing and diving grounds, all within a short distance. Otherwise a short drive will take you to the vast and beautiful white sand beach of Ruakaka, and a little further south will lead you to the historic and quaint village of Waipu.
