Nelson Rowing Club

Returning member? Nelson Rowing Club is stoked to have you back! Situated right at the marina in Port Nelson, the club offers rowing opportunities for everyone, regardless of age or skill level. Explore the stunning Nelson coastline and beyond.

Whether you're a teen, retired, or anywhere in between, Nelson Rowing Club has a place for you. They understand everyone has their preferred style – sculling, sweeping, or both – and they cater to all.

New to rowing? No worries. Their five-week “Learn to Row” courses are a great starting point. There are special programmes for students and older beginners too.

Keen on competition? Their College Rowing programmes let you represent your club and school at South Island and National regattas. It's not just about the medals – it's about staying fit and having a blast with your mates.

The Masters Rowing group is booming and social. Whether you’re rowing for fun or aiming to compete, you’ll find a welcoming community.

Fancy something different? Try coastal rowing. Whether it’s a sprint, a tour, or a row to Tahuna for a coffee, it’s an exciting new way to enjoy rowing.
