The Ōmokoroa Domain is a much-loved spot for families, beachgoers, boaties, and ferry users. It's home to an epic playground, a safe and scenic swimming beach, harbour access and open grassy spaces for picnics and community events.
We’re now moving onto the next stage of the Ōmokoroa Domain Concept Plan, focusing on the marine and boating facilities area- and we’d love to hear your thoughts.
It’s been a few years since we last talked with the community about this space, and we want to make sure the plan still reflects what the community wants and needs, before we dive into the detailed design.
The current plan includes:
A new 8m-wide double boat ramp and a 4m-wide single ramp to meet growing demand
Separating the jetty away from the boat ramps for safer access
An extended pontoon so more boats can moor temporarily
Dinghy racks and a small vessel ramp for kayaks, paddleboards and dinghies
A bus stop zone near the jetty to support ferry and public transport connections
Upgrades to the ferry boat ramp will also be considered as part of the wider plan.
This is the current plan. Have we got it right? Is there anything you’d like to change? We’d love to hear your feedback!
