We depart from the newer jetty with the silver bridge in the Wanaka Marina. Parking is not available for that length of time in the Wanaka Marina. But you can drive 200m past the marina, to where the road splits. You can park on the left hand side of both roads right after the split.
We will meet you on the jetty of the Wanaka Marina on Lakeside Road. Parking is very limited in the marina and not allowed on the graveled area. You can drive past the marina and park on the left side of Lakeside Rd once it turns up the hill. Or walk from the town center.
