About Nelson Marina

Nelson Marina is operated by Nelson City Council. Sitting just a few kilometres away from the geographical centre of New Zealand, Nelson Marina can’t be beaten for location. With the gorgeous Golden Bay and Abel Tasman National Park to the West, the stunning Marlborough Sounds and D’Urville Island to the North and the fantastic sailing in Tasman Bay against the backdrop of the world-famous Boulder Bank, Nelson has it all! With a dedicated visitor dock, travel lift and hardstand, Nelson Marina is a great hub for recreational boating and getting your marine servicing done.
