Port Whangarei
Port Whangarei ceased commercial shipping operations in 2007 as business shifted to the Marsden Point Port but there are still some maritime operations.  

Ship Repair NZ bills itself as "New Zealand's most experienced ship refit and repair specialists."  Ongoing projects included adding new stabilizer wings to the 20-meter trawler Bilyara (+) and refurbishment of Ocean Fresh for new owners (+).
The Port Whangarei Marine Centre refits and repairs vessels up to 100 tonnes displacement.
This is a relatively quiet area but there are plans for major residential and commercial development in the 100-hectare Port Nikau project (+).
