THE DOCK OF THE BAY Port Marlborough has just completed the Waikawa North West Marina. This extension has been constructed with the climate and coastal surroundings in mind. Recognising the area’s historical significance to Te Ātiawa iwi, a toka manatu stone, kaimoana designs on the breakwater walkway, and an informational panel were integrated throughout. A community-centric addition is the ‘step jetty,’ designed for kayakers, swing mooring users, and swimmers to easily access the bay. For boaties, the new extension provides an additional 251 berths in concrete floating construction, ranging from 10 to 30 metres. Some berths are still available. msmarinas.co.nz | service@msmarinas.co.nz
