Akaroa Marina

Banks Peninsula, Canterbury

CGLA was engaged to develop a concept for a marina at Children's Bay in Akaroa harbour. The first stage of the proposal would accommodate up to 150 yachts with space for launches up to 16 metres in length.

A permanent breakwater would protect from the prevailing wind. Facilities will be provided on the reclaimed land adjacent to the moorings. Cut over faces are shaped and revegetated with coastal native vegetation.
