VHF Ch. 67

Hours:

  • 06:00 to 18:00

The We Marina is on the east side of Lifu and the harbour is a man made breakwater with a large pier for the interisland ferry. The marina is shoreward of the ferry wharf. Stay close to the rock wall to starboard to stay in 2.5m at low tide.

The turn into the marina is sharp - stay to the north side of the channel - and the marina inside small.

Least draft in the entrance and in the marina slip is 2.5 m at low tide.

Yachts exceeding 45 feet must be very careful entering this marina and all vessels should call ahead on VHF to alert the staff so they can lend a hand with lines and give instructions on where to berth.

Photo showing inner entrance - stay to starboard. Depth in slip 8 ft.
