Port Hinchinbrook

Port Hinchinbrook

Situated halfway between Townsville and Cairns, Port Hinchinbrook is the gateway to Hinchinbrook Island and everything the Hinchinbrook area has to offer......untamed wilderness, superb beaches, deserted islands and the Great Barrier Reef, not to mention possibly the best fishing and boating opportunities in Australia.

The region around Port Hinchinbrook is one of Australia’s best kept secrets with superb coastlines, untamed wilderness, and deserted islands and is a hot spot for boating and fishing.

Sail your own and moor at the marina, rent a yacht (with or without a guide) or take a day cruise. Just make sure you experience the wonder of this heritage listed area and its surrounds.

And if it's fishing you’re after there are so many options you won’t know where to start! From estuary to deep sea fishing, with barramundi, queenfish, trevally, mangrove jack, and salmon to name but a few.
