Stage 1 Works Underway

Stage 1 works have been progressing steadily since Georgiou Group started construction in March 2024.

Once complete, the marina will become a lively destination for leisure, dining, and recreation. Stage 1 includes 68 residential lots and three apartment sites, which are expected to be made available for sale in early 2026.

Additionally, on a separate site, Byte Construct are building the new Marine Rescue Whitfords and Ocean Reef Sea Sports Club buildings. Concrete was poured and panels erected in 2024. Joondalup City RSL will also open in late 2025 and will be based at the ORSSC building. The protected family beach, coastal pool, and playground are anticipated to open in 2026.
