We are going to meet up with some non boating friends near Nanaimo in a few weeks. We will be staying in our boat while they will require land accommodation. Does anyone have a marina suggestion? Thanks

Hi Pat and Morag. The best marina with transient moorage is the Port Authority downtown. The Coast Bastion hotel is across the street. There are several motels within a few blocks. The many marina in Nanaimo are mostly permanent moorage. But give Newcastle marina on Stewart a call. They usually have some. It's our home marina when in town. Call Tanya at 1-250-753-1431. Down the block is a nice motel The Buccaneer. It is well regarded. You are then positioned a half mile from downtown. Have a good trip. George

I'll second George's suggestion of the Port Authority marina, close to hotels, shopping groceries fuel etc. Hope you have a good visit.

Depends how long the stay is? I was at the Port Authority last month by the fish & chip floating cafe. Cost me over $38 for one night. I was at Newcastle Island yesterday, $14 a night. Might be better off to stay at NI and get the water taxi.

Just a thought.

Martin.
