Te Ana marina is now complete, and has plenty of berths. It is fully protected inside the main port breakwaters. Call Lyttelton Harbour on VHF 12 before entry for instructions. Visitors may stay on pontoons from 10m upwards, with no real limit on size and plenty of depth. Facilities are sparse but what there is is good. Showers and laundry are new 2018, water, power, and wifi are available, but there is no fuel dock and the haulout facilities are poor at present, but expected to improve. Access is easy day or night and well marked.
Hi, Viki here from the Little Ship Club of Canterbury. We love welcoming visitors to our special part of the world. Our city is in a constant state of change since it was destroyed in the earthquakes of 2010-2011. We have put together a list on our website with information for visiting sailors which we keep up to date. We would love to welcome you if you are heading in this direction. Please get in touch.

Yachts approaching Christchurch from the North should be aware that winds can go from benign to very strong quite rapidly during North Westerlies. This is due to the vast bare expanse of the Canterbury Plains which offers no resistance at all. In my case we went from 2-3 knots to having the gunwales underwater in an instant, necessitating hauling in most of the sails under trying conditions. So, be sure to reduce sail as you enter Pegasus Bay under these conditions.
Absolutely true! If strong north-westerly winds are predicted, it is easiest to follow the 15m contour around Pegasus Bay to avoid the very sharp chop that these winds can produce. Wind speed can easily be double what is forecast.
Christchurch Yacht Club does NOT accommodate visitors, the listed phone no. is no longer in use (“we no longer have had a phone line” says the Commodore) the chandlery has gone out of business…
Lyttleton inner harbour is a tiny but very busy commercial port with no room for visiting yachts…
Naval Point SC/Lyttleton marina is mostly empty and derelict, but the helpfull caretaker will do his best within the means for a visitor…
