<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Park your boat in Whangarei Harbour's unique marina right in the centre of town. <br />
<br />
Hop off the boat and get a great cup of coffee or cool beer at one of the quayside restaurants and cafes. Stroll over to the swimming baths and fitness centre. Take a longer walk through one of the many picturesque native forest walks. The children will love the huge playground. <br />
<br />
Just a block or so away is also the shopping district, movie theater, medical and dental services, internet cafes ... and very importantly a large low-price supermarket to bunker up with. All this without the need of a car. If you do want a car to see more of New Zealand, there are cheap ones for sale or hire in town.<br />
<br />
After you have taken care of yourself you can organize some care for the boat. There are three major haul-out yards in town and a well established boat service industry that survives on their reputation with visiting boats, - see links.<br />
<br />
Being just a day's sail to world renowned spots like Bay of Islands, Great Barrier Island, Auckland and the Tutukaka Coast - rated as one of the top dive spots in the world, Whangarei is a great base to cruise around or just park a while!</div>Lighthouse
