About Te Atatu Boating Club

Te Atatu Boating Club is a member-run boating club at 32 Bridge Avenue in Te Atatū South, on the Waitematā harbour. It was started by a handful of volunteers in the early 1960s, when boats were pushed through the mangroves to launch. The club now has nearly 750 member families, with more than 1,400 people associated with it. It offers all-tide ramps, dinghy pontoons, hardstand, four bookable work bays, a maintenance and painting shed, trailer parking and public launching. Space is also set aside for surf life saving clubs, and the club is home to both sailing and power boaters.

Members can launch and retrieve at any tide for free, and they can book a work bay up to two weeks ahead. The website lists a $25 member day rate for work bays, as at 2026. Non-members pay $20 per trailer boat to launch. The club also has a licensed bar, the High Tide Kitchen restaurant open through the week, and function rooms with harbour views, including the Commodore's Lounge and the clubroom. Dinghy racks are available to members.
