Introduction to the Port Underwood Association
We would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to the Port Underwood Association.  Our current membership of over 100 consists mainly of residents and bach owners but is open to anyone who has an interest in the Port Underwood area.
The association’s purpose is to represent the views of a wide range of residents, ratepayers, farmers, marine farmers, forestry owners, and bach owners.
Our association is known, respected and consulted on most topics that concern the Port.  We are then able to present a united front on a wide variety of issues that affect all of us who live, work and holiday in this beautiful area.

The committee as of 2025 consists of 5 volunteers, 2 of whom are permanent residents.
This website contains some information on recent activity.

We invite you to join us.
For $20 per year per family (not per bach), you will receive regular information by email on the latest issues that affect the Port such as fishing regulations, notification of aquaculture, roading, forestry and subdivision resource consent applications as well as health alerts such as toxic algae blooms.

You will also be enabling the local residents and bach owners association to support and advocate for this amazing part of Aotearoa.

If you would like to join please contact us on the email below with your name, Bay (or connection to Port Underwood) phone numbers, address and email.  You can do a direct deposit into the Port Underwood Association account, (details available from the secretary/treasurer – see details below).  Please be sure to quote your surname and Bay as a reference when making a direct bank deposit.

If you wish to know more, please contact the secretary, Kirsty Vercoe by email  port.underwood.association@gmail.com.  We look forward to hearing from you.

And check out our local Facebook group – Marlborough Port Underwood Community – Te Whanganui (it’s a private group so request an invite to join).
