Broad Bay Yacht Club
About
Broad Bay Yacht Club serves South Island from 683A Portobello Road, Broad Bay, Dunedin 9014, New Zealand, a base on the coast. The venue runs boat and yacht hire, with the Broad Bay waterfront providing direct access to the sheltered waters of the harbour. Visitors have left 17 reviews and an average score of 4.9 out of 5, a figure that points to a settled and satisfied following rather than passing trade.
Broad Bay sits on the coast, reachable by road from Dunedin and within driving distance of Queenstown, Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura. The club's own site at https://www.broadbayboatingclub.nz/ carries its information for anyone planning a trip out on the water. Hiring a car is the usual way to reach the bay, and traffic drives on the left across New Zealand.
The Southern Alps run down the South Island, giving the island its mountain backdrop from the coast to the interior. Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture, and either makes a fitting end to a day on the water. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
