Batavia Coast Marina - Overview
Geraldton, which is home to Batavia Coast Marina, has seen a surge in interest following a $40 million investment in foreshore redevelopment and city centre revitalisation, transforming it over the past two decades.
Landmark projects, including Batavia Coast Marina, the Museum of Geraldton, Bill Sewell Complex, HMAS Sydney II Monument, and Champion Bay Foreshore Enhancement have strengthened Geraldton’s appeal as a great place to live, work, and invest—driving further growth and opportunity in the region.
Stage 1: Transforming Geraldton’s foreshore
Completed in March 2000, Batavia Coast Marina Stage 1 (BCM1) has revitalised the Geraldton foreshore, creating vibrant waterfront promenades and boardwalks that seamlessly connect the city to the coast.
The redevelopment delivered 10 mixed-use residential and commercial lots, the Western Australian Museum Mid-West Gallery, and a hotel site, laying the foundation for a thriving waterfront precinct.
BCM1 was delivered alongside the City of Greater Geraldton’s Foreshore Redevelopment, further enhancing the area’s appeal.
DevelopmentWA managed Stage 1 on behalf of the Batavia Coast Marina Steering Committee, with the Mid-West Development Commission (MWDC) as the project proponent.

Stage 2: Connecting Geraldton’s city centre and waterfront
Batavia Coast Marina Stage 2 (BCM2) is transforming six hectares of land—previously owned by the City of Greater Geraldton, Mid West Development Commission, Public Transport Authority of WA, and DevelopmentWA—into a dynamic precinct that will seamlessly link the Geraldton CBD with the Batavia Coast Marina waterfront.
Once complete, Stage 2 will create a vibrant new hub, delivering residential, commercial, retail, and tourism opportunities, all set within landscaped public spaces designed to enhance connectivity and liveability.
The BCM Stage 2 Steering Committee, comprising DevelopmentWA, the City of Greater Geraldton, and the Mid West Development Commission, is leading the development.
The second phase of BCM2 is a future development area located north of Bayley Street, between Stella Maris Drive and Chapman Road. Further planning will shape this precinct’s role in Geraldton’s evolving cityscape.
Batavia Coast Marina Stage 2 moves forward with funding boost
DevelopmentWA has commenced works on the next phase of Batavia Coast Marina (BCM2), with $4.4 million allocated to kickstart construction of Station Square—a vibrant, mixed-use precinct in the heart of Geraldton’s city centre.
Located next to the heritage-listed Geraldton Railway Station, Station Square will enhance the connectivity between the city centre and the waterfront, delivering high-quality public spaces, new housing, and commercial opportunities.
