Coral Sea Marina, in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef, offers a diverse range of marina facilities designed to accommodate superyachts and provide the very best guest experience for visiting captains, crew and owners.
The dedicated Superyacht arm has been developed to ensure comfort, privacy and convenience for our superyacht guests. With premium berthing available for vessels up to 80m and deep-water berths to 5m LAT, Coral Sea Marina is the marina of choice for superyachts in the Whitsunday region.
Over recent years, Coral Sea Marina has experienced a multi-million dollar redevelopment. Every upgrade and improvement to the superyacht facilities at Coral Sea Marina has been designed with the view of creating a world-class destination marina in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef and the Whitsundays – the best cruising grounds in Australia.
A vibrant marina village offers restaurants, bars and cafes, a contemporary crew lounge, foreshore relaxation areas and an attractive garden space developed with captains, owners and crew in mind.
With premium superyacht facilities, and an experienced and passionate team, Coral Sea Marina is the most awarded marina in the Great Barrier Reef region. Attaining accolades such as Australian Marina of the Year 2017 – 2021, Superyacht Industry Service Provider of the Year 2021 and ACREW Best Superyacht Marina 2022, voted by captains and crew internationally, provides captains and owners the confidence that their marina experience will be the best in the business.
As Queensland’s first 5 Gold Anchor Platinum accredited marina, we go the extra nautical mile for our superyachts!
