Queenstown Marina
KJet’s brand new location
Our new reservations and visitor centre is now open as a first class departure point for Conference and Incentive delegates, located at the revitalised Frankton (now Queenstown) marina.
The marina is an additional departure point to KJet’s long standing location at the Main Town Pier central Queenstown. The centre is tailored towards large groups that require ample parking for coaches, space to offer food and beverages before or after a Jet boat trip and exclusive use of the centre available on request.
This fantastic new facility allows for flexibility with trip duration, pick up and drop off points, and can also be used as a wet weather option. For delegates that are unable to go on the Jet boat, the garden and public seating area along the waterfront is a great place to sit with a coffee and watch the boats come and go.
