The club is open seven days a week, from 12:00pm until closing time. We also have the Whangaroa Sport Fish Cafe, which is open from 12:00pm until 3:00pm, and then again from 5:00pm until 8:30pm.

We pride ourselves in offering various facilities and amenities to enhance your experience at our club. We have ample car parking available for both club and marina use.

The Whangaroa Sport Fishing Club is not just a place to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery; we are also a hub for fishing enthusiasts. We are affiliated with the New Zealand Sport Fishing Council (NZSFC) and the International Game Fish Association (IGFA). We host an annual calendar of fishing competitions, ranging from big game to bottom fishing, with a wide selection of sections to fish and fantastic prizes to be won.
Our club is steeped in history and legends. Established in February of 1925, we were originally known as the Whangaroa NZ Swordfish & Big Game Incorporated Club, and later became the Whangaroa Big Gamefish Club. The Whangaroa township itself is known as 'The Jewel of the North', 'Marlin Country', and a 'Fisherman's Paradise'. With prime game fishing grounds near the harbour entrance, as well as Stephensons Island and the Ruahine Reef offshore, there are always plenty of fish to be caught.
The nearby Cavalli Islands are renowned for their world-class game fishing opportunities.
We invite you to visit us at the Whangaroa Sport Fishing Club and experience the excitement of fishing in our beautiful harbour. Whether you are a seasoned angler or a novice enthusiast, our club has something to offer for everyone. Come join us and be part of our fishing community.
