Construction Updates
Latest updates
Ocean Reef Marina is poised to become a world-class destination, welcoming both tourists and locals alike. DevelopmentWA is creating a beautiful precinct for community enjoyment. With a family beach, expansive landscaped recreational areas, and a coastal pool on the horizon, we’re at an exciting chapter in the development. While we strive to minimise disruption during construction, some impacts are inevitable. This page will keep you informed about ongoing construction at the marina. This will be particularly helpful for those living nearby, ensuring you stay connected to the project’s progress and its benefits to the community.
Major updates
This year has so far seen massive progress at the Ocean Reef Marina site. With Georgiou Group finalising Stage 1 of the project, and Byte Construct building the new Ocean Reef Sea Sports Club/Joondalup City RSL and Marine Rescue Whitfords facilities, lots of milestones were reached.

Coastal shared path reopens
The southern section of the coastal shared path between Hodges Drive and the boat trailer car park, restoring public access along this part of the route.
While the path is reopening, a temporary diversion has been constructed for future short-term use during upcoming service connection works. The diversion will allow pedestrians and cyclists to safely move around the work area and will be clearly signposted until these final works are complete.
We thank the community for their patience while these important infrastructure works are completed.
New boat ramps now open
Works on the new boat ramps are now complete, with all eight ramps open!
A big thank you to all boat users for your patience during construction.
Here’s what’s new:
• Longer jetties – the new 65m jetties are at least 24m longer than before, offering more space to launch and retrieve vessels.
• Extended ramps – built beyond Australian Standard depth requirements to suit a wider range of vessels.
• Deeper ramp toe – now 1.46m below the lowest astronomical tide (standard is 1.2m for deep-draft vessels).
• Southern jetty upgrade – now 108m long with space for temporary mooring of small craft, including a dedicated kayak launch and retrieval area.
