Keep exploring
On the protected waters of Booker Bay, this marina offers a calm and appealing setting for boat owners and visiting crews. The surrounding Central Coast has a wonderfully laid-back rhythm, with bays, beaches and village life all close by.
Marina facilities provide a convenient base for everyday boating, while the sheltered position makes it easy to step aboard and make the most of the water. It is a lovely place to begin a day’s exploring or return to as the afternoon light softens.
